Instructions / Assembly

• 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 surface burner. Visually check that the burner has lit. Then
adjust the flame so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.
• 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 smoking and
greasy spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
• Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the cooktop, use aluminum foil only to cover food
during cooking. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock, or fire.
• 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 temperature. Check the
manufacturer’s recommendations for cooktop use.
• Do not use decorative surface burner covers. If a burner is accidentally turned on, the
decorative cover will become hot and possibly melt. You will not be able to see that the burner is on.
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.
