IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
COOKTOP
Use Proper Flame Size--Adjust flame size
so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The
use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the burner
flame to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing.
Proper relationship of utensil to flame will also improveefficiency.
• Know which knob controls each surface burner/surface
unit. Place a pan of food on the burner before turning it on,
and turn the burner off before removing the pan.
• Always turn knob to the full LITE position when igniting
top burners. Visually check that burner has lit. Then adjust the
flame so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.
• Use proper pan size. This cooktop can be equipped with one
or more surface units of different sizes. Select utensils having
flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit. The use of
undersized utensils will expose a portion of the surface heating
unit to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing.
Proper relationship of utensil to the surface unit will also
improve efficiency.
• Utensil Handles Should BeTurned Inward and Not Extend
Over Adjacent Surface Burners/Unit--To reduce the risk of
burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to
unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of the utensil
should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not
extend over adjacent surface burners.
• Never Leave Surface Burners/Unit Unattended at High
Heat Settings--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers
that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
• Glazed Cooking Utensils--Only certain types of glass, glass/
ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are
suitable for cooktop service without breaking due to the
sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer's
recommendations for cooktop use.
• Do not use Searing Grill on the cooktop. The Searing Grill is not
designed for use on the cooktop. Doing so may result in a fire.
Do Not Use Stove Top Grills on Your Sealed
Gas Burners--If you use a stove top grill on a sealed gas burner,
it will cause incomplete combustion and can result in exposure
to carbon monoxide levels above allowable current standards.
This can be hazardous to your health.
Do Not Use Decorative Surface Burner/Unit Covers. If a
burner/unit is accidentally turned on, the decorative cover will
become hot and possibly melt. You will not be able to see that
the burner/unit is on. Burns will occur if the hot covers are
touched. Damage may also be done to the cooktop or burners/
unit because the covers may cause overheating. Air will blocked
from the burner/unit and cause combustion problems.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
GLASS COOKTOP
• Do Not Operate or Clean a Broken Cooktop Glass.--If glass
top should break, cleaning solutions and spilloversmay penetrate
the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact
a qualified technician immediately.
• Clean Cooktop Glass with Caution.--If a wet sponge or
cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to
avoid a steam burn. Some cleaners can produce harmful fumes
if applied to a hot surface.
• Protective Liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line any part
of the cooktop, except as suggested in this manual. Improper
installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock, or
fire.
• Avoid Scratching the Cooktop Glass with Sharp Objects.
