Important safety information
• Make sure the wall coverings around the range can withstand heat up to
200 °F (93 °C) generated by the range.
Cabinet storage above the surface of the range should be avoided. If cabinet
•
storage above the range is necessary, allow a minimum clearance of 40 inches
(102 cm) between the cooking surface and the bottom of the cabinets or
install a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5 inches (12.7
cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinets.
• Locate the range out of kitchen traffic paths and drafty locations to prevent
poor air circulation.
• If the range is located near a window, NEVER hang long curtains or paper
blinds on that window. They could blow over the surface burners and ignite,
causing a fire hazard.
Cooktop safety
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, personal injuries, and/or death, observe
the following precautions.
• Before igniting the burners, make sure all burner caps are properly in place
and all burners are level.
• 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 for use with a wok or wok ring attachment.

• Make sure all burners are off when you are
not using the range.
• Do not use aluminium foil to line the grates
or any part of the cooktop. This can 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.
• 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 it is assembled.
• To avoid carbon monoxide poisoning, do not pour water into the cooktop well
while cleaning.
• Select cookware that is designed for range top cooking. Use cookware that is
large enough to cover the burner grates. Adjust the burner flames so that the
flames do not extend beyond the bottom of the cookware.
• To avoid cookware discoloration, deformity, and/or carbon monoxide
poisoning, do not use cookware that is substantially larger than the grate.
• Make sure cookware handles are turned to the side or rear of the cooktop, but
not over other surface burners.
• Stand away from the range while frying.
• Always heat frying oils slowly, and watch as they heat. If you are frying foods
at high heat, carefully watch during the cooking process. If you are going
to use a combination of fats or oils when frying, mix them together before
heating.
• Use a deep-fryer thermometer whenever possible. This prevents overheating
the fryer beyond the smoking point.
• Use a minimum amount of oil when shallow pan-frying or deep-frying. Avoid
cooking unthawed food or food with excessive amounts of ice.
