Fire safety
WARNING
To reduce risk of fire, electric shock, personal injury, or death, observe these precautions:
•
Do not store/place/use combustible
material (e.g., paper, plastic, pot holders,
linens, alcohol) near the cooktop.
•
Do not wear loose fitting or hanging
clothing while using the cooktop.
•
Do not let flammable material touch a
heating element. Do not use a towel or
other bulky cloth as a pot holder.
• Regularly clean the vents to remove grease buildup.
• Do not douse a grease fire with water, but turn off the burner, and smother the fire
with a tight-fitting lid, or use a multi-purpose, dry-chemical or foam extinguisher.
• Do not heat sealed food containers; pressure may burst container and cause injury.
Gas safety
WARNING
To reduce risk of fire, electric shock, personal injury, or death, observe these precautions:
If you smell gas:
• Close the valve and do not use the cooktop.
• Do not light a match, candle, or cigarette.
• Do not turn on any gas or electric appliances.
• Do not touch an electrical switch or plug in a power cord.
• Do not use any phone in your building.
• Evacuate the building.
• From a neighbor's phone, immediately call the gas supplier, and follow their
directions. (If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.)
Checking for gas leaks
Leak-testing the cooktop must be done per manufacturer directions. Do not use a flame
to check for gas leaks. Use a brush to spread a soap-and-water solution around the test
area. If there is a gas leak, small bubbles will appear in the solution.
