IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
RADIANT SURFACE UNITS
WARNING
When using electrical appliances, take safety
precautions to reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, re,
injury to persons, property damage or exposure to excessive
microwave energy, including the following:
1 Use proper pan size. This cooktop has surface units of varied
sizes. Select utensils with at bottoms large enough to cover
the surface unit’s heating element. Undersized utensils expose
a portion of heating element to direct contact and may result
in risk of burns or ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of
utensils to heating element also improves efciency.
2 Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings.
Boil-overs cause smoking and greasy spills that may ignite.
3 Only certain types of glass, glass-ceramic, ceramic, earth-
enware or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop use.
Unsuitable materials may break due to sudden change in
temperature.
4 Position utensils with handles turned inward and not extended
over adjacent surface units to reduce the risk of burns, ignition
of ammable materials and spillage due to unintentional
contact with utensils.
5 Do not use the appliance if the cooktop is broken. If the
cooktop breaks, cleaning solutions and spills may penetrate
the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact
a qualied technician immediately.
6 Clean the cooktop with caution. Be careful to avoid steam
burns if cleaning the cooktop with a wet sponge or cloth.
Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot
surface. See the COOKTOP section in CLEANING AND
CARE on page 30.
7 Clean ventilating hoods frequently. Grease should not be
allowed to accumulate on hood or lter.
8 Turn on the fan when ambéing foods under the hood.
9 Carefully monitor foods being fried at high or medium-high
heat settings. Use extreme caution when moving a grease
kettle or disposing of hot grease when deep-fat frying.
10 Food for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost on frozen
foods or moisture on fresh foods can cause hot fat to bubble
up and over the sides of the pan.
11 Use little fat for effective shallow or deep fat frying. Overll-
ing a pan with fat can cause spillovers when food is added.
12 Always heat fat slowly and monitor as it heats. If a combina-
tion of oils or fats will be used in frying, stir them slowly
before heating or as fats melt.
13 Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to prevent
heating fat beyond the smoking point.
14 Avoid scratching the glass-ceramic cooktop. The cooktop
can be scratched by items such as sharp instruments, rings
or other jewelry and rivets on clothing. Large scratches or
impacts to glass door or rangetop can lead to broken or
shattered glass.
15 Never use the glass-ceramic cooktop surface as cutting board.
16 Do not place or store items that can melt or catch re on the
cooktop, even when it is not being used.
17 Spoons or other stirring utensils placed on cooktop surface
when in use may become hot and could cause burns. Place
utensils on the Spoon Rest attachment.
18 Always turn off the surface units before removing cookware.
19 Control Lock does not disable the rangetop. When Control
Lock is activated, operation of the Microwave Drawer
™
is
disabled, but the cooktop is still operational.
MICROWAVE DRAWER
1 Read and follow the specic PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID
POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE ENERGY on
page 2.
2 Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged cord, is not
working properly or has been damaged or dropped.
3 Do not immerse the cord in water. Keep the cord away from
heated surfaces.
4 Keep ngers and clothes clear of drawer guides when the
Drawer is opened or closed. Fingers or clothes could be
caught in the guides when the Drawer is closed.
5 Do not block or cover any openings on the appliance.
6 Some products in sealed containers, such as whole eggs and
closed glass jars, can explode and should not be heated in
the Microwave Drawer
™
Oven.
7 To reduce the risk of re in the microwave cavity:
• Do not overcook food. Carefully attend the appliance when
paper, plastic or other combustible materials are used to
facilitate cooking in the Microwave Drawer
™
Oven.
• Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before
placing bag in oven cavity.
• If materials inside the Microwave Drawer
™
Oven ignite,
keep the drawer closed, turn off the appliance and shut off
power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.
• Do not use the Microwave Drawer
™
Oven for storage
purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils
or food in the oven cavity when not in use.
8 Food and containers must be shorter in height than the
drawer. Refer to the height of the side walls of the drawer.
9 Use only mild, nonabrasive soaps or detergents applied with
a sponge or soft cloth when cleaning the sealing surfaces that
come together on closing the drawer. See the MICROWAVE
DRAWER section in CLEANING AND CARE on page 31.
10 Liquids, such as water, coffee or tea, can be overheated
beyond the boiling point without appearing to boil, due to
surface tension of the liquid. Visible bubbling or boiling
when the container is removed from the Microwave Drawer
™
Oven is not always present. This could result in VERY HOT
LIQUIDS suddenly boiling over when a spoon or other
utensil is inserted into the liquid.
