IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using },our cooktop
Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp pot
holders on hot surfaces may cause burns from
steam, Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in
place of potholders. Do not let potholders touch
hot cooking areas,
This appliance is equipped with one or more
surface units of different sizes. Always use utensils
that have flat bottoms and that are large enough
to cover the whole cooking area. The use of a
utensil smaller than the size of the cooking area
will expose a portion of the heated area to direct
contact with the user which could result in burns.
Proper relationship of utensil to burner will also
improve efficiency.
Turn handles of utensils inward so that they do
not extend over adjacent work areas, cooking
areas, or the edge of the cool<top. This will help
prevent hot food spills, risk of burns and ignition
of flammable materials, and preventing access by
children.
" Use high heat settings on the cooktop only when
necessary. Use low to medium settings to heat oil
slowly.
Never move a pan of hot oil, especially a deep fat
fryer. Wait until it is cool.
Never leave the cooktop unattended when using
high heat settings. Boi[overs can cause smoke and
possibly damage the cooktop.
. Hold the handle of the pan to prevent movement
of the utensil when stirring or turning food.
Other than the use of metal pans, only certain types
of glass, heatproof glass ceramic, ceramic,
earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable
for cooktop use.These types of utensils may break

Some cleaners produce noxious fumes if applied

Clean the ventilation system above or behind the
cooktop frequently so that grease from the
