• 'RQRWOHDYHDQ\LWHPVRQWKHFRRNWRSThe
hot air from the vent may ignite flammable
items and will increase pressure in closed
containers, which may cause them to burst.
• 'RQRWXVHDOXPLQXPIRLOWRFRYHUWKHJUDWHV
RUOLQHDQ\SDUWRIWKHFRRNWRSDoing so
may result in carbon monoxide poisoning,
overheating of the cooktop surfaces, or a
potential fire hazard.
• 8VHSURSHUSDQVL]H³avoid pans that are
unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware
having flat bottoms large enough to properly
contain food and avoid boilovers and spillovers
and large enough to cover burner grate. This
will save cleaning time and prevent hazardous
accumulations of food, since heavy spattering
or spillovers left on the range can ignite. Use
pans with handles that can be easily grasped
and remain cool.

they may melt if left too close to the vent or
burner.

certain that the controls for all burners are at
the OFF position and all grates are cool before
attempting to remove them.

these areas after each use.

• &OHDQWKHFRRNWRSZLWKFDXWLRQAvoid steam
burns; do not use a wet sponge or cloth to
clean the cooktop while it is hot. Some cleaners
