can be killed or seriously injured if you don't

You instructions.

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:

■ 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.

■ Proper Installation – Be sure your cooktop is properly

installed and grounded by a qualified technician.

■ Never Use Your Cooktop for Warming or Heating the

Room.

■ 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.

■ Wear Proper Apparel – Loose-fitting or hanging garments

should never be worn while using the cooktop.

■ 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.

■ 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 cooktop 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.
