SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS

WHAT TO DO

IMPORTANT NOTE: Read all
instructions before using this
appliance.

Read this Use & Care Information
carefully before using your new
cooktop to reduce the risk of fire,

electric shock or injury to persons.

Ensure proper installation and
servicing. This appliance must be

properly installed and grounded by
a qualified technician. Have the
installer show you where the fuse
box is located so that you know
where to turn off power.

Wear proper apparel. Never let loose
clothing or other flammable
materials come in contact with the
cooking surface while in operation.
Fabric may ignite and result in
personal injury.

Use only dry pot holders when
removing pans from the cooktop.

Wet or damp pot holders on hot
surfaces may result in burns from
steam. Do not let pot holders touch
hot cooking surfaces.

Select cookware of the proper size,
material and construction for the

particular type of cooking being
done. This unit is equipped with one
or more surface units of different
size. Refer to the Cookware
Selection Guide on page 19.

Always turn pan handles inward so
they do not extend over adjacent
work areas, induction elements or
edges of cooktop to reduce the risk
of burns, ignition of flammable
materials and spillage due to
unintentional contact with pan. Do
not turn handles toward the room,
where they may be bumped or
easily hit.

WHAT NOTTODO

Never use your cooktop to warm
or heat a room.

When using the cooktop, DO NOT
TOUCH THE GLASS SURFACE
directly above or adjacent to the
induction elements. The glass

surface may become hot enough to
cause burns after removing a
saucepan with hot contents.

Never heat an empty pan. It may
damage the cooktop or cookware
and overheat the unit.

Do not heat cookware with water
droplets on the outside of the pan.
The droplets may begin to boil and
splatter. Cookware should always be
dry.

Do not leave children alone or
unattended in the area where the
cooktop is in use. Never allow

children to sit or stand on the
appliance. Do not let children play
with the cooktop.

Do not store items of interest to
children above or at the back of the
cooktop as they could climb on the

appliance to reach items and be
injured.

Do not use water on grease fires.

Smother the flame or use a dry
chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

Never leave the cooktop unattended
when using high heat settings.

Boilovers and greasy spillovers may
smoke or ignite.

Do not operate the cooktop if the
ceramic glass top is broken or
severely pitted. Call a Wolf

authorized service center to repair
the appliance.

Do not store flammable materials
near hot components or let grease

or other flammable substances
accumulate on the cooktop.

Do not clean the cooktop while it is
still hot. If using a damp sponge or

cloth, wait until the cooktop has
cooled sufficiently to prevent steam
burns. Also, some cleaners give off
noxious fumes when applied to hot
surfaces. Refer to the Cooktop Care
section on page 20.

Do not use aluminum foil on the
top of the cooktop.

Do not repair or replace any part of
the appliance unless it is specifically

recommended in literature you
received. All service should be
referred to a Wolf authorized service
center.
