Safety
English 4
• Hold the handle of the pan when stirring or turning food. This helps prevent
spills and movement of the pan.
• Use Proper Pan Size. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion
of the heating element or burner to direct contact and may result in ignition of
clothing. Select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the sur-
face heating unit. This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of
different size. Proper relationship of cookware to heating element or burner
will also improve efficiency.
• Cookware not approved for use with glass ceramic cooktops may break with
sudden temperature changes. Use only pans that are appropriate for glass
ceramic cooktops (only certain types of glass, heatproof glass, ceramic,
earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable). See Cookware Selection
Guide for further details.
• Always position handles of utensils inward so they do not extend over adja-
cent work areas, burners, or the edge of the cooktop. This reduces the risk of
fires, spills and burns.
• CAUTION: Plastic containers or plastic wrap can melt if in direct contact with
the drawer or a hot utensil. If it melts onto the drawer, it may not be remov-
able.
