IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR RADIANT COOKTOP
Know which knob or key controls each
surface heating area. Place cookware with
food on the cooking area before turning it
on. Turn the cooking area o before re-
moving the cookware.
Cookware handles should be turned in-
ward and not extend over adjacent surface
elements — To reduce the risk of burns,
ignition of flammable materials, and spill-
age due to unintentional contact with the
utensil, the handle of the cookware should
be positioned so that it is turned inward,
and does not extend over other cooking
areas.
Use proper pan size - This appliance is
equipped with one or more surface units
of dierent sizes. Select cookware with flat
bottoms that match the surface unit size.
Using the proper cookware on the cooking
area will improve eciency.
Glazed cooking utensils— 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.
Improper cookware may break due to sud-
den changes in temperature. Check the
cookware manufacturer’s recommenda-
tions for cooktop use.
Never leave surface elements unattended.
Boil-overs may cause smoking and greasy
spills that may ignite. A pan that has
boiled dry could be damaged and may
damage the cooktop.
Do not use a searing grill meant for use
with a broiler pan on the cooktop. The
searing grill is not designed for use on the
cooktop. Doing so may result in a fire.
When you are flaming foods under a venti-
lating hood, turn on the fan.
