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 appliance. Use only dry, heat resistant potholders. Moist or damp potholders used on hot surfaces can result in steam burns. Do not let the potholder touch the hot heating elements. Do not use towels or other bulky items near the appliance.
Do not heat unopened containers.
~
Built-up pressure may cause the container to burst and result in injury.
Do not flambé under an exhaust
~
hood. Flames could be drawn up into the hood by the suction and the grease filters may ignite.
Never use the appliance to heat a
~
room. Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects left near the appliance could catch fire.
Do not store items on the appliance
~
when not in use. Items could melt or catch fire from residual heat or if the appliance is turned on inadvertently. Always switch the cooking zone(s) off after use.
Never cover the burner with a cloth
~
or protective oven foil. If inadvertently turned on or if there is residual heat, a fire could result.
Be aware of loose fitting or hanging
~
garments when operating the appliance, they may present a fire hazard.
Never leave an appliance
~
unattended at high settings or when cooking with oil or fat. Overheated oil could ignite. Always heat oil slowly, monitoring it as it heats.
Do not store aerosols, combustibles
~
or any other easily flammable materials underneath or adjacent to the appliance.
Do not use water on grease fires.
~
Smother or use a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher on any fire or flame.

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!
The control panel and/or the areas
~
around the cooktop (the cooktop frames or surrounding (in the case of facet 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.
Do not allow either solid or liquid
~
sugar, pieces of plastic or foil to fall on the burners when they are hot. If these residues are allowed to cool on the ceramic surface pitting or even cracking may occur.

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 can be done! Failure to comply can result in a damaged cooktop.
NEVER set down hot pots or pans in
~
the area of the control panel. This can damage the underlying electronics.
If the cooktop built in behind a
~
cabinet door, it should only be operated with the door open. Close the door only when the appliance is shut off and the Residual Heat indicators have gone out.
