important Safety instructions
iMPORTANT iNSTRUCTiONS FOR USING
YOUR COOKTOP
Know which touch pad controls each surface unit.
Clean the appliance regularly to keep all parts free
of grease that could catch fire. Exhaust fan ventila-
tion hoods and grease filters should be kept clean. Do
not allow grease to accumulate on hood or filter. Greasy
deposits in the fan could catch fire. When flaming food
under the hood, turn fan on. Refer to hood manufactur-
er's instructionsfor cleaning.
Use Proper Pan Size. This appliance is
equipped with one or more surface units of different sizes.
Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover
the surface unit. The use of undersized utensils will expose
a portion of the surface heating unit to direct contact and
may result in ignitionof clothing. Proper relationship of
utensil to the surface unit will also improve efficiency.
,, Utensil Handles Should BeTurned inward from
Edges of Cooktop and Should Not Extend Over Adja-
cent Surface Units. To reduce the risk of burns, ignition
of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional
contact with the utensil.
,, Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at a High Heat
Settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers
that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
FOR GLASS COOKTOP ONLY
,, Do Not Clean or Operate a Broken Cooktop. If cook-
top should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may
penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric
shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.
Clean Cooktop with Caution. If a wet sponge or cloth
is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to
avoid a steam burn. Some cleaners can produce harmful
fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Do Not Place Hot Cookware on Cold Cooktop Glass.
This could cause glass to break.
,, Do not slide pans across the cooktop surface. They
may scratch the cooktop surface.
Do not let pans boil dry. Pans that boil dry may per-
manently damage the cooktop by breaking, fusing to, or
marking it. (This type of damage is not covered by your
warranty).
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement
Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of
substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth de-
fects or other productive harm, and requires businesses to
warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
Protective Liners. Do not use aluminum foil to line any
part of the appliance. Only use aluminum foil as recom-
mended for baking if used as a cover placed on the food.
Any other use of protective liners or aluminum foil may
result in a risk of electric shock or fire or short circuit.
Glazed Cooking Utensils. Only certain types of glass,
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed
utensils are suitable for range top service without break-
ing due to the sudden change intemperature. Check the
manufacturer's recommendations for cooktop use.
Ventilating hood. The ventilating hood above your cook-
ing surface should be cleaned frequently, so the grease
from cooking vapors does not accumulate on the hood or
filter.
Do Not Use Decorative Surface Element Covers. ifan
element is accidentally turned on, the decorative cover
will become hot and possibly melt. Burns will occur if the
hot covers are touched. Damage may also be done to the
appliance.
