Aluminum Foil and Utensils
WARNING
Never cover any slots, holes, or passages in the oven
bottom or cover an entire oven rack with materials such
as aluminum foil. Aluminum foil linings may trap heat,
causing a fire hazard.
Protective Liners — Do not use aluminum foil to line the
oven bottom. Improper installation of these liners may
result in risk of electric shock or fire.
Cleaning the sealed burners
IMPORTANT
Aluminum foil - Use of aluminum foil on a hot cooktop can
damage the cooktop. Do not use thin aluminum cooking
utensils or allow aluminum foil to touch the surface
elements under any circumstances.
Aluminum utensils - The melting point of aluminum is
much lower than that of other metals. Care must be taken
when aluminum pots or pans are used on the cooktop. If
aluminum pans are allowed to boil dry when using the
cooktop, not only will the utensil be damaged or
destroyed, but it may fuse to, break, or mark the ceramic
glass surface, permanently damaging the cooktop
surface.
To avoid possible burns, do not attempt cleaning before
turning off all surface burners and allowing them to cool.
Any additions, changes, or conversions required in order for
this appliance to satisfactorily meet the application needs
must be made by an authorized qualified Agency. Routinely
clean the cooktop. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth and wipe
dry to avoid scratches. Keeping the surface burner head
ports and slots clean will prevent improper ignition and an
uneven flame.
To clean recessed and contoured areas of cooktop:
• If a spill occurs on or in the recessed or contoured
areas, blot up spill with an absorbent cloth.
• Rinse with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry.
CAUTION
To avoid possible burns do not attempt to operate the
surface burners without the burner caps.
Do not use spray oven cleaner on the cooktop.
CARE AND CLEANING
To clean burner heads:
1. Remove the burner cap from the burner head (see
