CAUTION! Failure to obey these cautions could result in minor or
moderate injury.
• Let the device cool down to ambient temperature before you touch it
with bare hands.
• Keep the area surrounding the device free of grease, fat, alcoholic
substances, plastics and flammable cloths (for example, curtains, tow-
els, kitchen utensils).
• Only use pots and pans with an even base and a diameter no larger
than the grids on the device. The pots and pans must be large enough
