USING YOUR COMPONENT COOKTOP

• After cleaning,

use a dry cloth or paper towel to

remove all Cooktop Cleaning Cream residue.

• Read and follow all instruction and warnings

on Cooktop Cleaning Cream labels.

• Clean the cooktop with caution.

If a wet sponge

or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface
unit, be careful to avoid steam burns. Some
cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied
to a hot surface.

When the cooktop is cool, use only Cooktop
Cleaning Cream brand cleaner to clean the
cooktop.

• Do not use a wok on the gas burners if the wok

has a round metal ring which is placed over the
burner grate to support the wok.

This ring acts

as a heat trap that may damage the burner
grate and burner head. Also, it may cause the
burner to work improperly. This may cause a
carbon monoxide level above that allowed by
current standards, resulting in a health hazard.

• If you smell gas,

turn off the gas to the cooktop

at the gas cutoff valve and call a qualified
service technician. Never use an open flame to
locate a leak.

• Do not operate the gas burners without all

burner parts and grate in place.

• Let the gas burner grate and other surfaces

cool before touching them.

• Do not leave grates removed from any

component where children can reach them.

• Never leave gas burners unattended at high

flame settings.

Boilovers cause smoking and

greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.

• For your safety, never use your gas burners for

warming or heating the room.

Prolonged use of

the cooktop in this way can be hazardous.

• Do not clean the cooktop system with

flammable or volatile cleaning fluids.

See the

Care and Cleaning section.

• Do not clean any part of the cooktop system

when the appliance is in use.

• If you are using an overhead exhaust hood,

keep its grease filters clean

to maintain good

venting and to avoid grease fires.

• Clean only parts listed in this Use and

Care Guide.

• Clean the cooktop with caution.

If a wet sponge

or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooktop,
be careful to avoid steam burns.
