Electrical and grounding safety
WARNING
To reduce risk of fire, electric shock, personal injury, or death, observe these precautions:
• Plug into a grounded, 3-prong outlet.
• Do not remove the ground prong.
• Do not use an adapter or extension cord.
• Do not use a damaged power plug, cord,
or loose power outlet.
• Do not modify the plug, cord, or outlet.
• Do not put a fuse in a neutral or ground circuit.
• Use a dedicated 120-volt, 60-Hz, 15-amp, AC, fused electrical circuit. A time-delay fuse
or circuit breaker is recommended. Plug only the cooktop into this circuit.
•
Do not con nect the ground wire to plastic plumbing lines, gas lines, or hot-water pipes.
• This cooktop must be grounded. In case of malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides the current a safe path.
f unsure your electrical outlet is properly grounded, have a licensed electrician check it.
•
I
• If codes allow a separate ground wire, have a qualified electrician determine its path.
• Electrical service to the cooktop must conform to local codes, or in the absence of
local codes, to the National Electrical code/NFPA No. 70 – Latest Revision (for the U.S.)
or the Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1 or Latest Revisions.
• The owner shall ensure the cooktop is provided proper electrical service.
Location safety
WARNING
To reduce risk of fire, electric shock, personal injury, or death, observe these precautions:
• The cooktop is for indoor household use only. Do not install the cooktop outside or
anywhere that it will be exposed to weather, water, wind, or strong drafts.
• On windows near the cooktop, do not hang paper blinds or long curtains that could be
blown over the cooktop.
• The cooktop must be installed within easy reach of a grounded, 3-prong outlet.
•
For proper ventilation, the cooktop needs sufficient space below, all around the chassis.
Vents in the chassis exhaust heat and fumes so the cooktop can operate properly.
•
Wall coverings around the cooktop must be able to withstand heat up to 194 °F (90 °C).
• Do not store items above the cooktop. If cabinet storage above the cooktop is needed,
allow at least 30 in. (76.2 cm) between the cooking surface and the cabinet bottom.

Safety and warning information
Cooktop safety
WARNING
To reduce risk of fire, electric shock, personal injury, or death, observe these precautions:
• Turn off all burners that are not in use.
• Do not line the grates or any part of the cooktop with aluminum foil.
• Do not leave burners unattended on medium or high heat settings.
• Before igniting, ensure the burner components are properly seated.
• Use the LITE (flame icon) position to ignite a burner, then ensure the burner ignites. If
ignition fails, turn the knob OFF, and wait a few minutes for the gas to dissipate.
•
Wh en setting a burner to simmer, turn the knob slowly, and ensure the flame stays on.
• Place only cookware on the cooktop.
• Turn off a burner before removing the cookware.
• Ensure all cooktop burners are off and all surfaces are cool to the touch before
removing the grates and disassembling the burners.
• After cleaning the burner head, dry it completely before reassembly.
• Do not pour liquids into the cooktop during cleaning.
• Select cookware that is designed for cooktops and that is large enough to cover the
grates. Burner flames should not extend beyond the bottom of the cookware.
• Do not use cookware that is considerably larger than the grate.
• Turn cookware handles away from active burners or the front edge of the cooktop.
• Stand at a safe distance while frying.
• Heat frying oil slowly, and monitor the oil as it heats. For high-heat frying, monitor
the oil throughout the cooking process.
• If combining fats or oils, do so before heating.
• If possible, use a deep-fry thermometer so you can adjust the heat to keep the oil
below its smoke point. (Know the smoke point of your oil.)
• Use minimal oil when frying.
• Thaw food before frying; do not fry overly cold food or that is clumped with ice.
• Let hot oil/fat cool to room temperature before moving the cookware.
• In case of scalding:
– Immerse the scalded area in cool water for at least 10 minutes.
– Do not apply creams/oils/lotions.
– Cover the scalded area with a clean, dry cloth.
