[] [] [] []
User Servicing. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically
recommended in the manuals. All other servicing should be done only by a qualified
technician to reduce the risk of personal injury and damage to the appliance.
Never modify or alter the construction of an appliance such as removal of panels, wire
covers or any other permanent part of the appliance.
Storage on Appliance. Flammable materials should not be stored near surface units.
This includes paper, plastic and cloth items, such as cookbooks, plasticware and towels, as
well as flammable liquids. Do not store explosives, such as aerosol cans, on or near the
appliance. Flammable materials may explode and result in fire or property damage.
• Do not leave children alone. Children should not be left alone or unattended in the
area where an appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part
of the appliance.
• DONOTTOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR THESE UNITS. Surface units may
be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot
enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other
flammable materials touch these areas until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among
these areas are the cooktop and areas facing the cooktop.
• Wear Proper Apparel. Loose-fitting or hanging garments should never be worn
while using the appliance. Do not let clothing or other flammable materials contact hot
surfaces.
, Do Not Use Water or Flour on Grease Fires. Smother the fire with a pan lid, or use
baking soda, a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
o When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or grease may catch fire if allowed to
become too hot.
o Use Only Dry Pot holders. Moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in
burns from steam. Do not let the pot holders touch hot surface units. Do not use atowel or
other bulky cloth instead of a pot holder.
, Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers. Buildup of pressure may cause the container
to burst and result in injury.
iMPORTANT. Do not attempt to operate the cooktop during a power failure. If the power
fails, always turn offthe cooktop. Ifthe cooktop is not turned off and the power resumes, the
cooktop will begin to operate again. Food left unattended could catch fire or spoil.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR COOKTOP
• Know which knob controls each surface unit.
, Clean the appliance regularly to keep all parts free of grease that could catch fire.
Exhaust fan ventilation hoods and grease filters should be kept clean. Do not allowgrease to
accumulate on hood orfilter. Greasy deposits in the fan could catch fire. When flaming food
under the hood, turn fan on. Refer to hood manufacturer's instructions for cleaning.
Use Proper Pan Size. This appliance isequipped with one or more surface units of different
sizes. Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit. The use of
undersized utensils will expose a portion of the surface heating unit to direct contact and may
result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to element will also improve
efficiency.
• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend Over Adjacent Surface
Units. To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to
unintentional contact with the utensil.
• Never Leave Surface Units Unattended. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers
that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
• Protective Liners. Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the appliance. Only use
aluminum foil as recommended for baking if used as a cover placed on the food. Any other use
of protective linets or aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric shock orfire or short circuit.
Glazed Cooking Utensils. Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic,
earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for range top service without breaking due
to the sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer's recommendations for
cooktop use.
• Do Not Use Decorative Surface Element Covers. If an element is accidentally turned on,
the decorative cover will become hot and possibly melt. Burns will occur if the hot covers are
touched. Damage may also be done to the appliance.
• Ventilating hood. The ventilating hood above your cooking surface should be cleaned
frequently, so the grease from cooking vapors does not accumulate on the hood or filter.
FOR CERAMIC-GLASS COOKTOP ONLY
• Do Not Clean or Operate a Broken Cooktop. If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions
and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact
a qualified technician immediately.
• Clean Cooktop with Caution. Ifa wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking
area, be careful to avoid a steam burn. Some cleaners can produce harmful fumes ifapplied
to a hot surface.
• Do Not Place Hot Cookware on Cold Cooktop Glass. This could cause glass to break.
• Do not slide pan across the cooktop surface. They may scratch the cooktop surface.
• Do Not Let Pans Boil Dry. This may cause permanent damage in the form of breakage,
fusion, or marking that can affect the ceramic-glass cooktop. (This type of damage is not
