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 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

This is the safety alert symbol. "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 CAUTmON: Do not store items of interest to

children in cabinets above a cooktop = Children climbing on the cook.top to reach items could be

seriously injured.

m Proper Installation = Be sure your cook,top 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 cook.top is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand

on any part of the cook,top.

m Wear Proper Apparel = Loose4itting or hanging

garments should never be worn while using the cook,top.

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.

•, Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires = Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or foam=type extinguisher.

,, 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.

,, 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.

,, Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High Heat

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

,, Glazed Cooking Utensils = Only certain types of

glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cook,top service

without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.

_, 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.

_, 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.

_, 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 -

., Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently- Grease should

not be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter. _, When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on. For units with coil elements -

_' 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.

,, 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. ,, Do Not Soak Removable Heating Elements =

Heating elements should never be immersed in water.

• Large-diameter cookware.

• Large quantities of food.

The ALL OFF cooktop touch controls turn off all surface cooking areas that are in use at the same time.

. +1 ....... £ .... _ .

The Control Lock cooktop touch control prevents unintended use of the surface cooking areas. When the cooktop is locked out, the surface cooking areas cannot be turned on by the cooktop

touch controls. To Lock Cooktop: Press and hold the Control LocWALL OFF

keypad for 5 seconds. After 5 seconds, CONTROL LOCK will glow red, indicating that the cooktop touch controls are in the lockout position.

To Unlock Cooktop: Press and hold the Control Lock/ALL OFF keypad for 5 seconds.

COOKTOP USE

The surface cooking area will glow red when an element is on. It will cycle on and off, at all settings, to maintain the selected heat

level. It is normal for the surface of white ceramic glass to appear to

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

Wiping off the cooktop before and after each use will help keep it free from stains and provide the most even heating. For more information, see "General Cleaning" section.

• Do not store jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping a

heavy or hard object on the cooktop could crack it.

• 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.

• Clean up sugary spills and soils as soon as hot surface indicator light goes off. If spills and soils are not wiped up while warm, surface pitting can occur.

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. It could leave aluminum marks that cannot be removed completely.

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

• Do not use the cooktop as a cutting board.

If the cooktop is on when a power failure occurs, the Hot Surface Indicator Lights will remain on after power is restored to the cooktop. They will remain on until the cooktop has cooled completely.

3. 1in. (2.5 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 rotating 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.

• Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop.
