Cooktop safety

WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, personal injuries, and/or death, observe the
following precautions.
• Always use the LITE position when igniting the burners and make sure the burners have
ignited. If ignition fails, turn the knob to OFF and wait until the gas has dissipated.
• When you set a burner to simmer, do not turn the knob quickly. Make sure the flame
stays on.
• Do not place any objects other than cookware on the cooktop.
• This cooktop is designed to cook with a wok or wok ring attachment. To flame food, you
must have a ventilation hood. When you flame food, the hood must be on.
• Before removing or changing cookware, turn off the burners.
• Remove food and cookware immediately after cooking.
• Before removing any parts of the burner for cleaning, make sure the range is off and
completely cool.
After cleaning the burner spreader, make sure it is completely dry before re-assembling.
•
• Make sure the spark mark on the dual burner spreader is placed beside the electrode
when you re-assemble the burner spreader.

• Make sure all burners are off when not in use.
• Do not use aluminium foil to line the grates or any
part of the cooktop. It may cause carbon monoxide
poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat,
causing a fire hazard.
• Do not leave burners unattended on medium or high
heat settings.
• Before igniting any burner, make sure all burner caps
are properly in place and all burners are level.
