IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety
precautions should be followed, including
the following:
• Read all instructions before using your
cooktop.
• Have the installer show you the location of
the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy
reference.
• Use this appliance only for its intended use
as described in this manual.
• Be sure your appliance is properly installed
and grounded by a qualified technician in
accordance with the provided installation
instructions.
• Do not attempt to repair or replace any
part of your cooktop unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other
servicing should be referred to a qualified
technician.
• Before performing any service,
DISCONNECT THE COOKTOP POWER
SUPPLY AT THE HOUSEHOLD
DISTRIBUTION PANEL BY REMOVING
THE FUSE OR SWITCHING OFF THE
CIRCUIT BREAKER.
• Do not leave children alone—children should not
be left alone or unattended in an area where
an appliance is in use. They should never be
allowed to sit or stand on any part of the
appliance.
• To prevent surface units from accidentally
being turned on, especially by children or
pets, lock the cooktop when it is not in use
and before cleaning.
• Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang
on the cooktop.
• CAUTION:ITEMS OF
INTEREST TO CHILDREN SHOULD NOT
BE STORED IN CABINETS ABOVE A
COOKTOP—CHILDREN CLIMBING ON
THE COOKTOP TO REACH ITEMS
COULD BE SERIOUSLY INJURED.
• When using an electrical appliance near
the cooktop, be sure that the cord of the
appliance does not come into contact
with the surface area.
• Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments
while using the appliance. Be careful when
reaching for items stored in cabinets over the
cooktop. Flammable material could be
ignited if brought in contact with a hot
surface unit and may cause severe burns.
• Use care when touching the cooktop. The
glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat
after the controls have been turned off.
• For your safety, never use your appliance for
warming or heating the room.
• Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot
holders on hot surfaces may result in burns
from steam. Do not let pot holders touch a
hot surface unit. Do not use a towel or other
bulky cloth in place of a pot holder. Such
cloths can catch fire on a hot surface unit.
• Do not store flammable materials near
the cooktop.
• Keep the hood and grease filters clean to
maintain good venting and to avoid grease fires.
• DO NOT STORE OR USE COMBUSTIBLE
MATERIALS, GASOLINE OR OTHER
FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIQUIDS IN
THE VICINITY OF THIS OR ANY OTHER
APPLIANCE.
• Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumulate on the cooktop.
• Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick
up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off.
Smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by
covering the pan completely with a well-
fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a
multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher.
Flaming grease outside a pan can be put
out by covering it with baking soda or, if
available, by using a multi-purpose dry
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
