Heartland 8210 Instructions D'installation Et D'utilisation page 15

- Always turn the surface units off before removing cookware.
- When preparing flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
- Use care when touching the cooktop. The smooth surface of the cooktop will retain heat and may be hot enough to burn
even though it may appear dark in color after the controls have been turned off.
- Use little fat for effective shallow or deep fat frying. Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spillovers when food is added.
Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.
- If a combination of oils or fats will be used in frying, stir together before heating, or as fats melt slowly.
- Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost, frozen foods, or moisture on fresh foods can cause hot fat to bubble
up and over the sides of the pan.
- Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
- Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point.
- Avoid scratching the smooth cooktop. The cooktop can be scratched with items such as sharp instruments, rings or
other jewelry, and rivets on clothing. Do not stand on the smooth top.
-
Do not operate the radiant surface units if the glass is broken. Spillovers or cleaning solution may penetrate a broken
cooktop and create a risk of electrical shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately should your smooth cooktop
become broken.
- Never use the smooth surface as a cutting board.
- Never heat unopened food containers. Pressure build up may make container burst and cause injury.
- Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings on or near cooktop.
- Do not place or store items that can melt or catch fire on the smooth surface, even when it is not being used.
- Be careful when placing spoons or other stirring utensils on the smooth surface when it is in use. They may become hot
and could cause burns.
- Clean the cooktop with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface unit, be careful to avoid
steam burns. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
-
NOTE: We recommend that you avoid wiping any surface unit areas until they have cooled and the indicator
light has turned off. Sugar spills are the exception to this. Please see the "Cleaning the Smooth Cooktop" sec-
tion for detailed instructions on keeping your cooktop clean.
- When the cooktop is cool, use only Cerama Bryte
clean the cooktop.
- To avoid possible damage to the cooking surface, do not apply cleaning cream to the smooth surface when it is hot.
- After cleaning, use a dry cloth or paper towel to remove all cleaning cream residue.
- Read and follow all instructions and warnings on the cleaning cream labels.
- Large scratches or impacts to cooktops can lead to broken or shattered glass.
