IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Safety
DO NOT TOUCH THE COOKING
~
AREA OR THE VICINITY AROUND THE
COOKING AREA - During operation,
the cooking area and its surroundings
will get hot and can cause burns. When
the cooktop is shut off, the surface may
remain hot enough to cause harm, even
though the glow is not visible through
the dark glass. During and after use, do
not touch or let clothing or other
flammable materials contact the
cooking area or the vicinity around the
cooking area until they have had
sufficient time to cool. As long as the
surface temperature is high enough to
cause a burn, the Residual Heat
Indicator will remain lit. Once sufficient
time has passed the indicator will go
out and the surface is safe to touch.
Protect your hands with oven mitts
~
or potholders when using the

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Make certain that the power cords of
~
small appliances do not come in
contact with the appliance. The
insulation of the cable could become
damaged. Danger of electric shock!
Areas around the cooktop (the
~
cooktop frames or surrounding (in the
case of beveled cooktops) may
become hot due to the following
factors: operating time, high output
settings, large cook ware, and number
of burners in operation.
Be careful not to drop anything on
~
the ceramic surface of the cooktop.
Even lightweight objects may cause
damage.
Use the proper pan size. Select
~
cookware with flat bottoms large
enough to cover the heating element.
Using undersized cookware will expose
a portion of the heating element and
may result in ignition of clothing or
handles becoming hot. The proper size
pot or pan will also improve efficiency.
Do not use pots or pans with
~
pronounced edges or ridges on the
ceramic cooktop. These could scratch
the cooktop permanently. See
"Selecting cookware" for more
information. Grains of salt and sand can
cause scratches. Make sure that the
bases of any pots and pans are clean,
free of any fat or oils and are dry.
To prevent damage to the cooktop
~
do not use pots and pans with thin
bases on the cooktop. Never heat an
empty pan unless the pan manufacturer
states that you can do so.
Before using glass, glass/ceramic,
~
ceramic, earthenware or other glazed
cookware verify that they can be used
on a cooking surface.
Do not use plastic or aluminum foil
~
cookware. It melts at high
temperatures. Fire hazard.
To prevent burns and breathing
~
difficulty, allow the cooktop to cool
before cleaning. Some cleaners may
produce toxic fumes if applied to a hot
surface.
Keep the cooktop clean. Grains of
~
salt and sand can cause scratches.
When wiping spills on a hot cooktop
~
with a wet sponge or cloth, be careful
to avoid steam burns.
Do not let flammable materials,
~
i.e. cooking grease, accumulate on the
appliance.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
~
this appliance. Steam could penetrate
electrical components and cause a
short circuit.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Any spills should be removed as
~
quickly as possible to prevent them
from burning on and becoming difficult
to remove.
Aluminum cookware or cookware
~
with aluminum base can cause shiny
metallic spots. These spots can be
removed with ceramic glass or
stainless steel cleaner (see "Cleaning
and Care").
Never heat up an empty pot, unless
~
the manufacturer explicitly allows this
do be done! Failure to comply can
result in a damaged cooktop.
NEVER set down hot pots or pans in
~
the "Residual Heat" indicator area. This
can damage the underlying electronics.
