Location of Appliance Tags

Induction cooking is a safe, advanced, efficient, and economical cooking technology. It

works by electromagnetic field generating instant heat directly in the cookware bottom,

rather than indirectly through heating the glass surface. The glass becomes hot only

because the cookware warms it up.

The rating tag shows the model and serial number of your range. The tag is located under

the front edge of the induction cooktop. The tag is visible when the oven door is open.

COOKING SAFETY

• Do not allow aluminum foil, paper or cloth to come in contact with a hot element.

• Avoid preparing food in aluminum foil or plastic containers over the hot cooking

zones.

may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

• Do not allow pans to boil dry or empty.

• Never leave the cooktop unattended when in use.

• Always use the proper pot and pan size.

• The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the hot element, which

can result in ignition of clothing or personal burners.

• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use dry pot holders to hold the handles of pots/pans.

• Use only dry potholders - moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in

burns from steam. Do not let the potholder touch hot heating elements.
