The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to burner will also improve efficiency.

• Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High Heat Settings – Boil over causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.

• Appropriate Cookware - Only certain types of steel, cookware with iron bottom surfaces, iron roasting pans, cast iron cookware, or Chrome plated steel pans are suitable for induction cooking.

• Do Not Cook on Broken Cook-top – If cook-top should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cook-top and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.

• Clean Cook-top With Caution – If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

• Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers – Build-up of pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury when using the Induction Hotplate, follow these basic precautions:

• Do Not Touch Surface Units, Heating Elements, Interior Surfaces of Hotplate or Areas Near Units - Surface units and heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Area near surface and interior surfaces of an Hotplate become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact surface units, areas near units or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool.
