Do not pour cold water onto hot surfaces of the appliance. The steam could cause serious burns.
The sudden temperature change could also distort the metal surfaces resulting in permanent
damage.
Use only a small toothbrush to clean the burner ports and igniter of the surface burners. Do not
insert sharp objects or scratch the burner ports.
Wait until the appliance is completely cool before using any aerosol-type cleaners. Many of these
cleaners use flammable propellants which could ignite in the presence of heat.
PROPER USAGE
Do not heat unopened containers (cans) on the rangetop. Pressure may build up causing the
container to explode, resulting in damage to the appliance, or personal injury.
Only certain types of glass, heatproof glass-ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are
suitable for use on the surface burners. However, these types of materials may break with
sudden temperature changes. Use only on low or medium heat settings, and according to their
manufacturers’ directions.
Bakeware, such as large casserole pans, cookie sheets, etc. should not be used on the surface
burners. Large griddle plates that span across 2 burners should be used with care and on medium to
low flame settings to avoid a build-up of heat which could distort the grates or the burner bowl.
Always position the handles of pots and pans so they do not extend over adjacent work areas or
over the edge of the rangetop. This is to avoid knocking over hot contents which could burn you,
or result in a fire.
Do not use pots or pans on the griddle (if equipped).
