„ Do not touch surface elements. 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 the surface elements or areas nearby the
surface elements; 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 elements.
„ Always turn the surface element control to off
before removing the cookware.

flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface
element heating element. The use of undersized
cookware will expose a portion of the surface
element to direct contact and may result in
ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of
cookware to surface element will also improve
efficiency.
„
Never leave surface elements unattended at high
heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may catch on fire.
„ Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic,
earthenware or other glazed containers are
suitable for cooktop cooking; others may break
because of the sudden change in temperature.
„ Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or
medium-high heat settings.
„
Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost
on frozen foods or moisture on fresh foods can
cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of
the pan.
„
Use little fat for effective shallow or deep-fat
frying. Filling the pan too full of fat can cause
spillovers when food is added.
„ If a combination of oils or fats will be used in
frying, stir together before heating, or as fats melt
slowly.
„ Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
„ Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to
prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point.
„ Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a
deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.
„ Do not store flammable materials near the
cooktop.
„ Keep the hood and grease filters clean to maintain
good venting and to avoid grease fires.
„ 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.
