IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
■ Do not store flammable materials near
the cooktop.
■ Keep hood and grease filters clean to
maintain good venting and to avoid
grease fires.
■ Do not flame foods on the cooktop. If you
do flame foods under the hood, turn the
fan on.
■ Do not let cooking grease or other
flammable materials accumulate on
the cooktop.
■ Do not touch surface units. These surfaces
may be hot enough to burn even though
they are dark in color. During and after
use, do not touch, or let clothing or other
flammable materials contact surface units
or areas nearby surface units; allow
sufficient time for cooling first.
■
Potentially hot surfaces include the
cooktop and areas facing the cooktop.
■ To minimize the possibility of burns,
ignition of flammable materials and
spillage, the handle of a container
should be turned toward the center
of the cooktop without extending over
any nearby surface units.
■ Always turn the surface units to OFF before
removing cookware.
■ To avoid the possibility of a burn or electric
shock, always be certain that the controls
for all surface units are at the OFF position
and all surface units are cool before
attempting to lift or remove the unit.
■ Do not immerse or soak the removable
surface units. Do not put them in a
dishwasher.
■ Never clean the cooktop surface when
it is hot. Some cleaners produce noxious
fumes, and wet cloths could cause steam
burns if used on a hot surface.
■ Do not store or use combustible materials,
gasoline or other flammable vapors and
liquids in the vicinity of this or any
appliance.
■ Clean only parts listed in this Owner’s
Manual.
■ Do not leave paper products, cooking
utensils or food on the cooktop when
not in use.
■ Keep cooktop clean and free of
accumulation of grease or spillovers
which may ignite.
■ Never heat unopened food containers.
Pressure buildup may make container
burst and cause injury.
■ Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings
on or near your cooktop.
■ Never use your appliance for warming
or heating the room.
