grounded by a qualified technician.
2. Never Use Your Appliance for Warming or Heating the Room.
3. Do Not Leave Children Alone - Children should not be left alone or unattended in
area where appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any
part of the appliance.
4. Wear Proper Apparel - Loose fitting or hanging garments should never be worn
while using the appliance.
5. User Servicing - Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifi-
cally recommended in the appliance manual. All other servicing should be referred to
a qualified technician.
6. Storage in or on Appliance - Flammable material should not be stored in an oven
or near surface units.
7. Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires - Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or
foam type extinguisher.
8. Use Only Dry Potholders - Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result
in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a
towel or other bulky cloth.
9. Never Leave Unit Unattended - Boil over causes smoking and greasy spillovers
that may ignite.
10. Glazed Cooking Utensils - Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, earthen-
ware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for range-top service without breaking due
to the sudden change in temperature.
11. Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend Over Adjacent
Surface Units - To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spill-
age due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of a utensil should be
positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface
units.
12. Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently - Grease should not be allowed to accumu-
late on hood or filter.
13. Turn The Ventilating Fan Off - when flaming foods under the hood. The fan, if
operating, may spread the flame.
CAUTION: DO NOT TOUCH BURNERS OR GRATES OR AREAS NEAR
UNITS -Units may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near burners and
grates may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch,
or let clothing or other flammable material contact units or areas near units until they
have had sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are, burner top, main frame sides
and back, sea rails, and potholders.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS - LPG COOKTOP
1. Close tank valve whenever appliance is not in use.
2. Test system for leakage at least twice a month and after any emergency in
accordance with the following procedure:
With appliance valves closed and tank valve open, note pressure on gauge.
Close cylinder valve. If the pressure drops, as indicated on the gauge, there is a
leak in the system.
Locate leakage by application of liquid detergent or soap and water solution to
all connections. After leak has been repaired, recheck system by repeating the
above test. If leak cannot be repaired, close tank valve immediately and do not
use the system. Remember LPG is heavier than air and if allowed to reach bilges,
machinery space or other enclosed spaces, it can be extremely dangerous.
3. It is always a good idea to have an approved ABC type fire extinguisher in the
galley area.
TO LIGHT BURNERS:
a. Push down knob firmly and turn counter-clockwise to high (large dot) posi-
tion.
b. Hold knob down firmly until the spark ignites the gas and until the thermocouple
is heated (approximately 5-6 seconds). This will activate the safety magnet and
keep the burner lit.
c. Release knob and set to desired setting.
