IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not use stove top grills on the burner grates
of your sealed gas burners. If you use a stove top grill on a sealed
gas burner, it will cause incomplete combustion and can result in
exposure to carbon monoxide levels above allowable current
standards. This can be hazardous to your health.
Electronic controllers can be damaged by cold
temperatures. When you use your appliance for the first time,
or if it has not been used for a long period of time, make sure
that it has been exposed to a temperature above 0°C/32°F for
at least 3 hours before connecting it to the power supply.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
COOKTOP
• Know which knob controls each surface heating unit. Always
turn the knob to the LITE position when igniting the burners.
Visually check that the burner has lit. Then adjust the flame so
it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.
• Use Proper Pan Size—This appliance is equipped with one or
more surface burners of different sizes. Select utensils having flat
bottoms large enough to cover the surface burner. The use of
undersized utensils will expose a portion of the surface burner
to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper
relationship of utensil to the surface burner will also improve
efficiency.
• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Should Not
Extend Over Adjacent Surface Burners—To reduce the risk of
burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to
unintentional contact with the utensil. The handle of the utensil
should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not
extend over adjacent surface burner.
• Never Leave Surface Burners Unattended—Boilovers cause
smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has
boiled dry may melt.
• Protective liners— Do not use aluminum foil to line oven
bottom or any other part of the appliance. Only use aluminum
foil as recommended for baking if used as a cover placed on the
food. Any other used of protective liners or aluminum foil may
result in a risk of electric shock or fire or a short circuit.
• Glazed Cooking Utensils—Only certain types of glass, glass/
ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are
suitable for rangetop service without breaking due to the
sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer's
recommendations for rangetop use.
• Do Not Use Decorative Surface Burner Covers. If a burner is
accidentally turned on, the decorative cover will become hot and
possibly melt. Burns will occur if the hot covers are touched.
Damage may also be done to the cooktop or burners because the
covers may cause overheating. Air will be blocked from the
burner and cause combustion problems.
