6 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION STATEMENTS
CAUTION
• To reduce the risk of minor or moderate injury to persons, malfunction, or damage to the product or
property when using this product, follow basic precautions, including the following:
Operation
• This appliance may only be used for normal cooking and frying in the home. It is not designed for
commercial or industrial purposes.
• Use proper pan sizes. This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different sizes.
• Select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the cooking zones. The pan detection
sensors will not allow the affected cooking zones to operate without a pan present.
• Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed cookware are suitable
for rangetop service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the
manufacturer’s recommendations for cooktop use.
• Do not place hot cookware on cold cooktop glass. This could cause the glass to break.
• Do not slide pans across the cooktop surface. They may scratch the cooktop surface.
• Do not let pans boil dry. This may cause permanent damage in the form of breakage, fusion, or marking
that can affect the ceramic-glass cooktop. (This type of damage is not covered by your warranty.)
• Cook meat and poultry thoroughly, meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160 ℉ and poultry to at
least an INTERNAL temperature of 180 ℉. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against food-
borne illnesses.
• Prior to using the cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended cooktop cleaning cream to the
ceramic surface. Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or pad. This will make cleaning easier when the cooktop
gets soiled from cooking. The special cooktop cleaning cream leaves a protective finish on the glass to
help prevent scratches and abrasions.
• Please be careful of the cooktop edges when moving pots and pans.
• Ceramic glass is very tough, and impervious to sharp temperature changes, but is not unbreakable. It
can be damaged if hard or sharp objects fall on it.
• Be very cautious if using pots made of cast iron, or other pots with rough edges or burrs. Moving these
can cause scratches on the glass.
• Do not slide metal or glass across the cooktop surface.
• Do not use cookware with any dirt buildup on the bottom.
• Do not use cookware with rough or uneven bottoms. This cookware can mark and scratch the cooktop
surface.
• Do not use the glass cooktop surface as a cutting board.
• The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote-control
system.
Maintenance
• Always switch off the appliance before cleaning.
• For safety reasons, do not clean the appliance with a steam jet or high-pressure cleaner.
• Clean the cooktop in accordance with the maintenance and cleaning instructions in this manual.
• Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or rough metal scrapers to clean the cooktop glass since they can
scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.
• Clean the cooktop cautiously. Do not use sponges or cloth to wipe spills on a hot cooking area. Use a
proper metal scraper.
