Installation adéquate.
Assurez-vous que votre appareil soit correctement installé et mis à la terre par un technicien qualié.
N’utilisez jamais cet appareil pour le chauffage domestique.
ATTENTION
Ne pas laisser sans surveillance en présence d’enfants.
Les jeunes enfants ne devraient jamais être laissés sans surveillance dans la pièce où cet appareil est utilisé. Ils ne
devraient jamais être autorisés à s’asseoir ou monter sur toute partie de l’appareil. Ne laissez pas les enfants jouer
avec la table de cuisson. Ne gardez pas d’articles pouvant intéresser les enfants dans les éléments de rangement
au-dessus de la table de cuisson. Les enfants qui monteraient sur la table de cuisson pour atteindre de tels objets
pourraient se blesser gravement.
Portez des vêtements appropriés.
Des vêtements amples et des accessoires suspendus ne devraient jamais être portés en cuisinant. Les tissus ou au-
tres matériaux inammables pourraient entrer en contact avec les surfaces chaudes et s’enammer, pouvant causer
des blessures.
Réparation
Ne remplacez ni ne réparez aucune pièce de l’appareil. Si une réparation s’avérait nécessaire,assurez-vous qu’elle
soit effectuée par du PERSONNEL AUTORISÉ SEULEMENT ou contactez le service d’assistance à la clientèle
KENYON au 860-664-4906.
Rangement à l’intérieur ou au-dessus de l’appareil
Ne rangez jamais de matériaux inammables au-dessus, en-dessous ou près des unités de cuisson.
Gardez toute matière inammable loin de la table de cuisson.
Ne rangez pas d’objets en plastique tels des ustensiles en plastique sous la table de cuisson.
Les articles en plastique qui fondent à basse température ne devraient pas être rangés en-dessous ni au-dessus de
la table de cuisson.
Ne jamais arroser d’eau un feu de graisses.
Étouffez le feu ou les ammes ou utilisez un extincteur à poudre chimique sèche ou à mousse.
N’utilisez que des poignées isolantes sèches.
La vapeur produite par des poignées mouillées ou humides pourrait causer des brûlures. Ne laissez pas les poi-
gnées entrer en contact avec les surfaces chauffantes de l’appareil. N’utilisez pas de serviette ou de linge épais en
guise de poignées isolantes.
Ne cuisinez jamais sur une table de cuisson endommagée.
Les tables de cuisson brisées ou ssurées pourraient laisser pénétrer les déversements ou solutions nettoyantes
créant un danger de court-circuit ou d’électrocution. Communiquez immédiatement avec un centre de service auto-
risé ou avec le Service d’assistance à la clientèle de KENYON au 860-664-4906.
Faites attention lors du nettoyage de la table de cuisson.
Ne nettoyez pas la table de cuisson encore chaude. Si vous utilisez une éponge ou un linge humide pour essuyer les
déversements sur la surface de cuisson chaude, faites attention aux brûlures de vapeur. Certains produits nettoyants
produisent des émanations nocives lorsqu’ils sont appliqués sur une surface chaude. Lisez l’étiquette du produit net-
toyant avant de l’utiliser.
CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ
Veuillez lire la totalité de ces instructions avant d’installer ou d’utiliser cet appareil. Les informations
suivantes s’appliquent à toutes les tables de cuisson électriques KENYON.
5
Utilisez une poêle de format approprié.
Cette table de cuisson comprend un ou plusieurs éléments chauffants de diamètres différents. Choisissez des
ustensiles à fond plat de diamètre sufsant pour recouvrir toute la surface de l’élément chauffant. L’utilisation
d’ustensiles correspondant au diamètre de l’élément augmentera le rendement de l’appareil.
Ne laissez jamais sans supervision la table de cuisson réglée à chaleur élevée.
Les débordements dégagent des fumées et les substances grasses peuvent s’enammer.
Les poignées des ustensiles de cuisine devraient être tournées vers l’intérieur sans se trouver au-dessus
des surfaces chauffantes adjacentes.
Pour réduire le danger de brûlures, d’allumage de matières inammables et de déversements dusà un contact acci-
dentel avec l’ustensile, les poignées des ustensiles de cuisine devraient être tournées vers l’intérieur sans se trouver
au-dessus des surfaces chauffantes adjacentes.
Ne faites jamais chauffer une poêle vide.
Cela pourrait endommager l’ustensile ou la table de cuisson et faire surchauffer l’unité.
N’utilisez pas de papier aluminium sur la surface de la table de cuisson.
N’utilisez que des ustensiles de cuisine secs.
Ne chauffez pas d’ustensiles de cuisine avec des gouttes d’eau sur l’extérieur de la poêle. Les gouttelettes pour-
raient devenir chaudes et éclabousser.
NE TOUCHEZ PAS L’UNITÉ DE CUISSON NI LA SURFACE ENVIRONNANTE.
Les surfaces de cuisson peuvent être chaudes même si elles sont de couleur sombre. Les surfaces environnantes
peuvent être assez chaudes pour causer des brûlures. Pendant et après l’utilisation, ne touchez pas et ne laissez
entrer en contact aucun vêtement ou matériau inammable avec l’unité de cuisson ou sa surface environnante avant
qu’elles aient refroidi. Les éléments d’induction et la surface en vitre font partie de ces surfaces environnantes.
NE JETEZ PAS CE MANUEL, CONSERVEZ-LE PRÈS DE VOTRE TABLE DE CUISSON

Warning: To eliminate the risk of burns by reaching over heated
surface units, cabinet storage space located above surface units
should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk can
be reduced by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a
minimum of 5” beyond the bottom of the cabinets.
Avertissement : Pour éliminer les risques de brûlures lorsque quelqu'un tente d'accéder à
l'espace au-dessus de la surface de cuisson, évitez d'y installer toute armoire de rangement.
Si une armoire de rangement y est installée, les risques peuvent être réduits en installant une
hotte qui dépasse horizontalement d'au moins 10 cm (5 po) la partie inférieure des armoires.
