Installation Guide

• When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or grease may catch fire if allowed to become
too hot.
•
Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from
steam. Do not let potholders touch hot heating elements, the flame or burners. Do not use a towel or
other bulky cloth instead of a potholder.
•
Do not heat unopened food containers. Buildup of pressure may cause the container to burst
and result in injury.
•
Stepping, leaning or sitting on this appliance can result in serious injuries and also cause
damage to the appliance.
•
Never use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in
carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the oven.
•
Know which knob controls which cooktop burner. Visually check that the burner has lit. Then
adjust the flame so it does not extend beyond the edge of the pots and pans.
•
Clean the appliance regularly to keep all parts free of grease that could catch fire. Exhaust fan
ventilation hoods and grease filters should be kept clean. Do not allow grease to accumulate on hood
or filter. Greasy deposits in the fan could catch fire. When cooking food turn the hood, fan on. Refer
to hood manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning.
•
Utensil handles should be turned inward and 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 burners.
•
Never leave surface burners unattended at high heat settings. Boil overs cause smoke and
greasy spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
