COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The push-in and turn control knobs on this appliance are designed to be child-safe, however are not a guarantee of safe
operation.
Do not leave children alone or unattended in the kitchen while the appliance is in use.
When flaming liquor or other spirits, and if your appliance is installed under a ventilation hood, TURN THE FAN OFF. The
draft created could cause the flames to spread.
Turn pot and pan handles inward so they do not extend over adjacent burners or the front of the rangetop to reduce the risk of
burns, igniting flammable materials, and spillage.
After use do not touch the rangetop surface until completely cooled.
Never leave the surface burners unattended at medium or high heat settings. Foods, especially oily foods, may ignite
resulting in fire that could spread to surrounding cabinets.
Never leave oil unattended while frying. If allowed to heat beyond its smoking point, oil may ignite resulting in fire that may
spread to surrounding cabinets. Use a deep fry thermometer whenever possible to monitor oil temperature and operate with
safe limits.
To avoid oil spillover and fire, use a minimum amount of oil when shallow pan-frying and avoid cooking frozen foods with
excessive amounts of ice.
Use proper pan size and avoid pans that are unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware that is matched to the size of the
burner. Burner flames should be adjusted so that they do not extend beyond the bottom of the pan. Excessive flames may be
hazardous.
When using glass/ceramic cookware, make sure it is suitable for cooktop service. Some materials may break because of
sudden change in temperature.
Do not use cookie sheets or aluminum foil to cover the grates or line any part of the cooktop. Doing so may result in carbon
monoxide build-up and poisoning, over heating the cooktop surfaces, or a potential fire hazard.
