NES Cooktop Use and Care Manual

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
•
Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp pot
holders on hot surfaces may cause burns from
steam. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in
place of potholders. Do not let potholders touch
hot cooking areas.
•
This appliance is equipped with one or more
surface units of different sizes. Always use utensils
that have flat bottoms and that are large enough
to cover the whole cooking area. The use of a
utensil smaller than the size of the cooking area
will expose a portion of the heated area to direct
contact with the user which could result in burns.
Proper relationship of utensil to burner will also
improve efficiency.
•
Turn handles of utensils inward so that they do
not extend over adjacent work areas, cooking
areas, or the edge of the cooktop. This will help
prevent hot food spills, risk of burns and ignition
of flammable materials, and preventing access by
children.
•
The cooktop is for cooking. Never use it to warm
or heat a room.
Be sure your appliance is properly installed
and grounded by a qualified servicer in
accordance
with
Instructions provided with the cooktop.
Do not repair or replace any part of the
appliance unless specifically recommended
in this manual. All other servicing should
be referred to a qualified servicer.
•
Always use cookware and utensils appropriate for
the type and amount of food being prepared.
•
Do not place any hot cookware on the control
panel area.

Important Safety Instructions
•
Use high heat settings on the cooktop only when
necessary. Use low to medium settings to heat oil
slowly.
•
Never move a pan of hot oil, especially a deep fat
fryer. Wait until it is cool.
•
Never leave the cooktop unattended when using
high heat settings. Boilovers can cause smoke and
possibly damage the cooktop.
•
Hold the handle of the pan to prevent movement
of the utensil when stirring or turning food.
•
Other than the use of metal pans, only certain types
of glass, heatproof glass ceramic, ceramic,
earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable
for cooktop use. These types of utensils may break
with sudden temperature changes. Use only on low
or medium heat settings according to the utensil
manufacturer's directions.
•
Clean the cooktop with caution. If the soil must
be removed while the cooktop is hot, clean the
hot top with the metal razor blade scraper only.
Do not use a wet sponge or cloth while it is hot.
Some cleaners produce noxious fumes if applied
to a hot surface.
•
Clean the ventilation system above or behind the
cooktop frequently so that grease from the
cooking vapors does not accumulate on the filters,
fan, intake, or hood.
•
For people who wear electronic implants such
as a pacemaker or insulin pump, it is possible that
some implants may be affected by magnetic fields.
You should not carry the control knob (mTwisT
dial) in your pockets. The control knob is highly
magnetic and persons wearing electronic implants
should keep the control knob at least four inches
from the implant.
