• Disconnect the electrical supply and/or
gas supply at the shutoff valve near the
cooktop before servicing the cooktop.
Gas cooktop
• Gas fuels and their use in appliances
can cause minor exposures to benzene,
formaldehyde, carbon monoxide, and
soot, primarily from incomplete combus-
tion. Significant exposure to these
substances can be a health risk.
Properly adjusted burners with a blue,
rather than a yellow, flame will minimize
incomplete combustion. Venting with a
hood or an open window will further
minimize exposure.
• Never use a match or other flame to
look for a gas leak. Explosion and injury
could result.
• Know where your main gas shutoff
valve is located.
Vent system
• Do not block the vent system.
• Do not put hands in vent box when fan is
on. Injury could result.
• Filter must be in place for proper vent
system operation.
Care and cleaning
• Clean cooktop with care. Some cleaners
can produce noxious fumes if applied to
a hot surface. If a wet paper towel is
used to wipe spills on a hot cooking
area, be careful to avoid steam burns.
• Do not repair or replace any part of the
cooktop unless specifically
recommended in this manual. All other
servicing should be referred to a quali-
fied technician.
• Any additions, changes, or conversions
required in order for this appliance to
satisfactorily meet the application needs
must be made by an authorized dealer.
