About Your Appliance
If appliance is installed near a window, proper
precautions should be taken to prevent curtains from
blowing over surface elements.
To prevent potential hazard to the user and damage to
the appliance, do not use appliance as a space heater
to heat or warm a room.
To ensure proper operation and to avoid damage to
the appliance or injury, do not adjust, service, repair
or replace any part of the appliance unless specifi cally
recommended in this guide. Refer all other servicing to a
qualifi ed technician.
NEVER store or use gasoline or other combustible or
fl ammable materials near surface units or in the vicinity
of this appliance as fumes could create a fi re hazard or
an explosion.
To prevent grease fi res, do not let cooking grease or
other fl ammable materials accumulate in or near the
appliance.
Many aerosol-type cans are EXPLOSIVE when exposed
to heat and may be highly fl ammable. Avoid their use or
storage near appliance.
DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS. Heating
elements may be hot even though they are dark in color.
During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or
other fl ammable materials contact heating elements
until they have had suffi cient time to cool. Other
surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to
cause burns.
Do not use the cooktop as a storage area for food or
cooking utensils.

Cooking Safety

Use dry, sturdy potholders. Damp potholders may cause
burns from steam. Dish towels or other substitutes
should never be used as potholders because they can
trail across hot elements and ignite or get caught on
appliance parts.
Wear proper apparel. Loose fi tting or long hanging-
sleeved apparel should not be worn while cooking.
Clothing may ignite and cause burns if garment comes
in contact with heating elements.
NEVER heat unopened containers on the surface unit.
Pressure building up in the container may cause the
container to burst resulting in burns, injury or damage
to the appliance.
PREPARED FOOD WARNING: Follow food
manufacturer's instructions. If a plastic frozen food
container and/or its cover distorts, warps, or is otherwise
damaged during cooking, immediately discard the food
and its container. The food could be contaminated.
Always turn off all controls when cooking is completed.
Utensil Safety
This appliance has been tested for safe performance
using conventional cookware. Do not use any devices
or accessories that are not specifi cally recommended
in this guide or the installation instructions. The
use of devices or accessories that are not expressly
recommended in this guide can create serious safety
hazards, result in performance problems, and reduce the
life of the components of the appliance.
If pan is smaller than element, a portion of the element
will be exposed to direct contact and could ignite
clothing or potholder.
Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic,
earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable
for cooktop service without breaking due to the
sudden change in the temperature. Follow utensil
manufacturer's instructions when using glass.
Turn pan handle toward center of cooktop, not out into
the room or over another surface element. This reduces
the risk of burns, ignition of fl ammable materials, or
spillage if pan is accidently bumped or reached by small
children.

Cooktop Safety

NEVER leave surface units unattended, especially when
using high heat. An unattended boilover could cause
smoking and a greasy spillover can cause a fi re.
This appliance is equipped with different sized surface
elements. Select pans with fl at bottoms large enough to
cover element. Fitting pan size to element will improve
cooking effi ciency.
GLASS-CERAMIC COOKTOP: NEVER cook on a
broken cooktop. If cooktop should break, cleaning
solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken
cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a
qualifi ed technician immediately.
Clean cooktop with caution. Some cleaners can produce
noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. If a wet
sponge, cloth, or paper towel is used on a hot cooking
area, be careful to avoid steam burn.
NEVER stand on the cooktop.
