9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Fire Safety
WARNING
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
If materials inside an oven or warming drawer should ignite, keep door closed. Turn off the appliance and disconnect the circuit at the circuit breaker box.
WARNING
Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this manual. NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in overheating the appliance. Never use the appliance for storage.
Always have a working smoke detector near the kitchen. In the event that personal clothing or hair catches fire,
drop and roll immediately to extinguish flames. Have an appropriate fire extinguisher available, nearby,
highly visible and easily accessible near the appliance. Smother flames from food fires other than grease fires
with baking soda. Never use water on cooking fires.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
a.
SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
b.
NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN – You may be burned.
c.
DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels – a violent steam explosion will result.
d.
Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
- You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it.
- The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
- The fire department is being called.
- You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
Burn Prevention
DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN - Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing, potholders, or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns. Among these surfaces are oven vent openings, surfaces near these openings and oven doors.
Do not touch interior surface of the drawer while it is in use. The interior drawer could become hot enough to cause burns. Allow drawer and rack (if equipped) to cool before handling.
Exercise caution when opening the appliance. Standing to the side, open the door (or drawer) slowly and slightly to let hot air and/or steam escape. Keep your face clear of the opening and make sure there are no children or pets near the unit. After the release of hot air and/or steam, proceed with your cooking. Keep doors shut unless necessary for cooking or cleaning purposes. Do not leave open doors unattended.
Do not heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may cause the container to burst and cause injury.
Use high heat settings on the cooktop only when necessary. To avoid bubbling and splattering, heat oil slowly on no more than a low-medium setting. Hot oil is capable of causing extreme burns and injury.
Use caution when cooking foods with high alcohol content (e.g. rum, brandy, bourbon) in the oven. Alcohol evaporates at high temperatures. There is a risk of burning as the alcohol vapors may catch fire in the oven. Use only small quantities of alcohol in foods, and open the oven door carefully.
Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. Always use oven mitts, when the oven is warm. If a rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact the heating elements.
Never move a pan of hot oil, especially a deep fat fryer. Wait until it is cool.
CAUTION
To avoid possible injury or damage to the appliance, ensure rack is installed exactly per installation instructions and not backwards or upside down.
Always use dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
Secure all loose garments, etc. before beginning. Tie long hair so that it does not hang loose, and do not wear loose fitting clothing or hanging garments, such as ties, scarves, jewelry, or dangling sleeves.

It is the user’s responsibility to correct any interference.
CAUTION
Persons with a pacemaker or similar medical device should exercise caution when standing near an induction cooktop while it is in use. Consult your doctor or the manufacturer of the pacemaker or similar medical device for additional information about its effects with electromagnetic fields from an induction cooktop.
WARNING
HAZARD DUE TO MAGNETISM The probe is magnetic. The magnetic elements can
damage electronic implants such as pacemakers or insulin pumps. People with electronic implants should therefore not put the temperature sensor in the pockets of their clothes and should maintain a minimum distance of 4 inches (10 cm) with respect to their pacemaker or similar medical device.
Child Safety
When children become old enough to use the appliance, it is the responsibility of the parents or legal guardians to ensure that they are instructed in safe practices by qualified persons.
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand, lean, sit, or hang on any part of an appliance, especially a door, warming drawer, or storage drawer. This can damage the appliance, and the unit may tip over, potentially causing severe injury.
Do not allow children to use this appliance unless closely supervised by an adult. Children and pets should not be left alone or unattended in the area where the appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to play in its vicinity, whether or not the appliance is in use.
CAUTION
Items of interest to children should not be stored in an appliance, in cabinets above an appliance or on the backsplash. Children climbing on an appliance to reach items could be seriously injured.
Cleaning Safety
WARNING
RISK OF BURNS
; The appliance will become very hot on the outside
during the cleaning function. Never touch the appliance door. Allow the appliance to cool down. Keep children away from the appliance.
Notes
Do not clean the appliance while it is still hot. Some
cleaners produce noxious fumes when applied to a hot surface. Wet cloths or sponges can cause burns from steam.
When self-cleaning, confirm that the door locks and
will not open. If the door does not lock, do not run Self Clean. Contact service.
Birds have very sensitive respiratory systems. Keep
pet birds out of the kitchen or other rooms where kitchen fumes could reach them. During Self Clean, fumes are released that may be harmful to birds. Other kitchen fumes such as overheating margarines and cooking oils may also be harmful.
Keep oven free from grease build up.
Cookware Safety
Notes
Do not place food directly on oven bottom.Follow the manufacturer’s directions when using
cooking or roasting bags.
Hold the handle of the pan when stirring or turning
food. This helps prevent spills and movement of the pan.
Use proper pan size.
The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the heating element or burner to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface heating unit. This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different size. Proper relationship of cookware to heating element or burner will also improve efficiency.

9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Cookware not approved for use with ceramic
cooktops may break with sudden temperature changes. Use only pans that are appropriate for ceramic cooktops. See Cookware Selection Guide.
Always position handles of utensils inward so they do
not extend over adjacent work areas, burners or the edge of the cooktop. This reduces the risk of fires, spills and burns.
CAUTION
Plastic containers or plastic wrap can melt if in direct contact with the drawer or hot utensil. If it melts on to the drawer, it may not be removable.
WARNING
RISK OF INJURY When cooking with a bain-marie, the cooktop and
cooking vessel may crack due to overheating. The cooking vessel in the bain-marie must not come in direct contact with the bottom of the pot filled with water. Use only heat-resistant cookware.
Note: IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: The California Safe Drinking and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substance known to the state to cause cancer, birth defect or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances. The burning of gas cooking fuel and the elimination of soil during self-cleaning can generate small amounts of carbon monoxide. The fiberglass insulation in Self Clean ovens gives off very small amounts of formaldehyde during the first several cleaning cycles. California lists formaldehyde as a potential cause of cancer. Carbon monoxide is a potential cause of reproductive toxicity. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by:
1.
Providing good ventilation when cooking with gas.
2.
Providing good ventilation during and immediately after self-cleaning the oven.
3.
Operating the unit according to the instructions in this manual.
Food Safety
CAUTION
To maintain food safety, follow these guidelines:
WARNING
DANGER OF INJURY Cookware may spring or bounce upward due to fluid
trapped between the cookware bottom and cooking zone. Always keep cooking zone and cookware bottom dry.
Proposition 65 Warning:
This product may contain a chemical known to the State of California, which can cause cancer or reproductive harm. Therefore, the packaging of your product may bear the following label as required by California:
STATE OF CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING:

Causes of Damage

9 WARNING
RISK OF INJURY
Exercise caution when opening the appliance. Standing to the side, open the door (or drawer) slowly and slightly to let hot air and/or steam escape. Keep your face clear of the opening and make sure there are no children or pets near the unit. After the release of hot air and/or steam, pro­ceed with your cooking. Keep doors shut unless necessary for cooking or cleaning purposes. Do not leave open doors unattended.
NOTICES
DO NOT place accessories or items such as foil,
greaseproof paper, oven liners or bakeware on the oven cavity floor. This will cause heat to accumulate. The baking and roasting times will no longer be correct and the enamel will be damaged.
Aluminum foil in the cooking compartment must not
come into contact with the door glass. This could cause permanent discoloration of the door glass.
Aluminum foil and plastic will melt in hot cooking
areas. Stove protective film is not suitable for your cooktop.
Do not cook on a broken cooktop. Cleaning solutions
and spillovers may create risk of electric shock.
Cookware with rough bottoms will scratch the glass
ceramic surface.
Salt, sugar and grains of sand will scratch the glass
ceramic surface. Never use the cooktop as a working surface or for setting things down.
Avoid heating pots or pans that are empty.Hard or sharp objects falling off the cooktop may
damage it.
Sugar and products containing sugar may damage the
cooktop. Immediately eliminate spills of these products with a glass scraper once the cooktop has had sufficient time to cool.
Never set down hot pans and pots on the control
panel or frame. This may cause damage.
Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or
when flambéing food (i.e. Crepe Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).
When baking particularly juicy fruit pies, do not pack
the baking tray too generously. Fruit juice dripping from the baking tray leaves stains that cannot be removed. If possible, use the deeper universal pan.
If the seal is very dirty, the appliance door will no
longer close properly during operation. The fronts of adjacent units could be damaged. Always keep the seal clean.
Shimmering metallic discolorations on the glass
ceramic surface result from the use of inappropriate
cleaning agents and abrasion from cookware.
Do not use the appliance door as a seat, shelf or
worktop. Do not place any cookware or accessories
on the appliance door.
Depending on the appliance type, accessories can
scratch the door glass when closing the door. Always
slide accessories into the cooking compartment as far
as they will go.
Do not carry or hold the appliance by the door handle.
The door handle cannot support the weight of the
appliance and could break.

Protecting the Environment

Your new appliance is energy-efficient. Here you can find tips on how to save even more energy when using the appliance, and how to dispose of your appliance properly.
Unpack the appliance and dispose of the packaging in an environmentally friendly manner.
Saving Energy
Only preheat the appliance if this is specified in the
recipe or in the tables in the operating instructions.
Use baking tins that are dark-colored, painted black or
have an enamel coating. They absorb the heat particularly well.
Open the appliance door as infrequently as possible
when the appliance is in use.
It is best to bake several cakes one after the other.
The cooking compartment is still warm. This reduces the baking time for the second cake. You can place two cake tins next to each other in the cooking compartment.
For longer cooking times, you can switch the
appliance off 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time and use the residual heat to finish cooking.
Always place a fitting lid on cookware. Cooking with
an uncovered pan will result in a four-fold increase in energy use. Use a glass lid to provide visibility and avoid having to lift the lid.
Use cookware equipped with a solid, flat bottom.
Curved pan bases increase energy consumption.
The diameter of the pan base must match the size of
the element. If not, energy may be wasted. Note: The manufacturer normally indicates the pan’s
upper diameter. This is normally greater than the diameter of the pan’s base.
Choose cookware of a size suited to the amount of
food you are going to cook. A large pan that is only half full will use more energy.
Use a small amount of water when cooking. This
saves energy and vegetables retain a larger percentage of their vitamins and minerals.
Select a lower power level.When cooking, ensure that there is sufficient supply air
so that the extractor hood works efficiently and quietly.
Fan level adjust to the intensity of the cooking fumes.
Only use the high mode if necessary. A lower fan level means lower energy consumption.
With intensive cooking fumes, select a higher fan level
early on. Cooking fumes that are already distributed in the kitchen mean that the extractor hood will have to be operated longer.
Switch off the extractor hood when it is no longer
required.
Switch off the lighting when it is no longer required.
Clean and change the filter at the specified intervals in
order to increase the effectiveness of the ventilation
and prevent a risk of fire.

dishes like milk, pudding, rice pudding or cereals heat up with setting 8 - 8.5.
When cooking with the lid on, turn the heat setting
down as soon as steam escapes between the lid and the cookware. Steam does not need to escape for a good cooking result.
After cooking, keep the lid on the cookware until you
serve the food.
To cook with the pressure cooker, observe the
manufacturer's instructions.
Do not cook food for too long, otherwise more
nutrients than necessary will be lost. The kitchen timer can be used to set the optimum cooking time.
For a more healthy cooking result, smoking oil should
be avoided.
To brown food, fry small portions in succession.Cookware may reach high temperatures while the food
