IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS SAFETY PRECAUTIONS IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: • The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS • Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate on or near the cooktop. • Never leave surface burners unattended at high flame settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire. • Adjust surface burner flame size so it does not extend beyond the edge of the cookware. Excessive flame is hazardous. • Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam.
• Clean the cooktop with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface, be careful to avoid steam burns. Some cleansers can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. NOTE: We recommend that you avoid wiping any surface unit areas until they have cooled and the indicator light has gone off. Sugar spills are the exception to this. Please see the Glass Cooktop Cleaning section.
INSTRUCTIONS DE SÉCURITÉ IMPORTANTES PRÉCAUTIONS DE SÉCURITÉ AVIS IMPORTANT DE SÉCURITÉ : • La loi de l’état de Californie sur l’eau potable sécurisée et l’application des lois sur les produits toxiques exige que le Gouverneur de Californie publie une liste de substances qui, selon les connaissances de l’état, causent le cancer, les maladies congénitales ou autre lésion reproductive, et exige que les entreprises avertissent leurs clients de leur exposition potentielle à de telles substances.
• N’utilisez pas de l’eau sur les incendies de graisse. Ne saisissez jamais une poêle enflammée. Arrêtez les contrôles. Etouffez les flammes d’une poêle placées sur un brûleur de surface en la recouvrant entièrement d’un couvercle bien ajusté, d’un plateau à gâteau ou d’un plateau plat. Utilisez un extincteur à produit chimique sec multi-usages ou du type à mousse.
INSTRUCTIONS DE SÉCURITÉ IMPORTANTES • Faites attention quand vous nettoyez la table de cuisson. Si vous utilisez une éponge ou un linge humide pour essuyer des éclaboussures sur la surface de cuisson chaude, faites attention d’éviter les brûlures dues à la vapeur. Certains nettoyants peuvent produire des émanations délétères s’ils sont mis sur des surfaces chaudes.

Using Your Cooktop Gas Cooktop Electric ignition Your surface burners are lit by electric ignition, eliminating the need for standing pilot lights with constantly burning flames. All five igniters make clicking sounds and spark even when only a single burner is being turned on. Do not touch any of the burners when the igniters are clicking. All of the burner igniters spark while a burner is relighting. In case of a power outage, you can light the surface burners on your cooktop with a match.
