4 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION
• DO NOT touch cooking zones or areas near these surfaces. Cooking zones may
be hot from residual heat even though they are dark in color. Areas near the cooking
zones may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch
or let clothing or other flammable materials touch these areas until they have had
sufficient time to cool.
• Never wear loose fitting or hanging garments while using this appliance.
• Take care to avoid steam burns if using a wet sponge or cloth to wipe spills on a hot
cooking area.
• Wait for cooktop to cool before using cooktopcleaners. Some cleaners can produce
NOXIOUS FUMES if applied to a hot surface.
• Always turn off all controls when cooking is completed.
• Do not use water or flour on grease fires. Smother the fire with a pan lid, or use baking
soda, a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
• Use only dry pot holders. Moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns
from steam. Do not let pot holders touch hot surface units. Do not use a towel or other
bulky cloth instead of a pot holder.
• Do not heat unopened food containers. A buildup of pressure may cause the container
to burst and result in injury.
FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
• Remove all tape and packaging wrap before using the appliance. Destroy the carton and
plastic bags after unpacking the appliance.
Never allow children to play with packaging material.
• Storage on appliance: Flammable materials should not be stored near or on the
cooking surface. This includes paper, plastic and cloth items, such as cookbooks,
plasticware and towels, as well as flammable liquids. Do not store explosives, such as
aerosol cans, on or near the appliance. Flammable materials may explode and result in
fire or property damage.
• Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of
this or any other appliance.
• Never place combustible items on the cooktop.
• Never keep any combustible items or aerosol cans in a drawer located under the
cooktop.
DEEP FAT FRYER
• When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or grease may catch fire if allowed to
become too hot.
• Overheated fats and oils catch fire quickly.
You should supervise cooking when preparing foods in fat or oil.
• Use a deep fat thermometer, if possible, to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking
point.
