COOKTOP SAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety

messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."

These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately

follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow
instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can
happen if the instructions are not followed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,

injury to persons, or damage when using the cooktop, follow
basic precautions, including the following:

m CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to children in

cabinets above a cooktop - Children climbing on the
cooktop to reach items could be seriously injured.

m Proper Installation - Be sure your cooktop is properly

installed and grounded by a qualified technician.

m Never Use Your Cooktop for Warming or Heating the

Room.

m Do Not Leave Children Alone - Children should not be left

alone or unattended in area where cooktop is in use. They
should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the

cooktop.

m Wear Proper Apparel - Loose-fitting or hanging garments

should never be worn while using the cooktop.

m User Servicing - Do not repair or replace any part of the

cooktop unless specifically recommended in the manual. All
other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

m Storage on Cooktop - Flammable materials should not be

stored near surface units.

m Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires - Smother fire or flame

or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

m Use Only 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.

= DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR

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 contact surface

units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time

to cool. Among those areas are the cooktop and surfaces
facing the cooktop.

m Use Proper Pan Size -This cooktop is equipped with one

or more surface units of different size. Select utensils
having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit

heating element. The use of undersized utensils will
expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact

and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of
utensil to burner will also improve efficiency.

m Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High Heat

Settings - Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers
that may ignite.

m Glazed Cooking Utensils - Only certain types of glass,

glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed
utensils are suitable for cooktop service without breaking

due to the sudden change in temperature.

m 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, the handle of a
utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and

does not extend over adjacent surface units.

m Do Not Cook on 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.

m Clean Cooktop With Caution - If a wet sponge or cloth is

used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to
avoid steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious

fumes if applied to a hot surface.

For units with ventilating hood -

m Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently - Grease should not

be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.

m When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

For units with coil elements -

m Make Sure Reflector Pans or Drip Bowls Are in

Place - Absence of these pans or bowls during
cooking may subject wiring or components

underneath to damage.

m Protective Liners - Do not use aluminum foil to line surface

unit drip bowls, except as suggested in the manual.
Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of
electric shock, or fire.

m Do Not Soak Removable Heating Elements - Heating

elements should never be immersed in water.

COOKTOP USE

Use cookware about the same size as the surface cooking
area. Cookware should not extend more than 1/2"(1.3 cm)

outside the area.

The surface cooking area will glow red when an element is on.
Some parts of the surface cooking area may not glow red when
an element is on. This is normal operation. The burner will cycle

on and off to maintain the selected heat level. It will also
randomly cycle off and back on again, even while on High, to

keep the cooktop from extreme temperatures.
It is normal for the surface of light colored ceramic glass to

appear to change color when surface cooking areas are hot. As
the glass cools, it will return to its original color.

Cleaning off the cooktop before and after each use will help keep
it free from stains and provide the most even heating. On
cooktops with light colored ceramic glass, soils and stains may
be more visible, and may require more cleaning and attention.
Cooktop cleaner and a cooktop scraper are recommended. For
more information, see "General Cleaning" section.

• Avoid storing jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping a
heavy or hard object onto the cooktop could crack the
cooktop.

• To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not leave a hot lid on the
cooktop. As the cooktop cools, air can become trapped
between the lid and the cooktop, and the ceramic glass could

break when the lid is removed.

• For foods containing sugar in any form, clean up all spills and
soils as soon as possible. Allow the cooktop to cool down
slightly. Then, while wearing oven mitts, remove the spills
using a scraper while the surface is still warm. If sugary spills
are allowed to cool down, they can adhere to the cooktop
and can cause pitting and permanent marks.

• To avoid scratches, do not slide cookware or bakeware
across the cooktop. Aluminum or copper bottoms and rough

finishes on cookware or bakeware could leave scratches or
marks on the cooktop.

• Do not cook popcorn in prepackaged aluminum containers
on the cooktop. They could leave aluminum marks that
cannot be removed completely.

• To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not allow objects that
could melt, such as plastic or aluminum foil, to touch any part
of the entire cooktop.

• To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not use the cooktop as a
cutting board.

"" " _'_ ",'_ ...............................B

A. Surface cooking area
B. Cookware/canner

C. V2"(1.3 cm) maximum overhang

• Use flat-bottomed cookware for best heat conduction and
energy efficiency. Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed or

dented bottoms could cause uneven heating and poor
cooking results.

• Determine flatness by placing the straight edge of a ruler
across the bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the ruler,
no space or light should be visible between it and the

cookware.

• Cookware designed with slightly indented bottoms or small
expansion channels can be used.

• Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry
before using them. Residue and water can leave deposits

when heated.
To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not cook foods directly

on the cooktop.

i_ / %!_ _/_ %_,_ _ _

When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface
cooking areas or elements between batches. This allows time for
the most recently used areas to cool.

• Center the canner on the largest surface cooking area or
element. Canners should not extend more than 1/2"(1.3 cm)
beyond the surface cooking area or element.

• Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas or elements
at the same time.

On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners.
For more information, contact your local agricultural

department. Companies that manufacture home canning
products can also offer assistance.
