Important safety instructions
• Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass surface of the
cooktop will retain heat after the controls have been turned
off.
• Be careful when placing spoons or other stirring utensils on
the glass cooktop surface when it is in use. They may become
hot and could cause burns.
• Use proper pan sizes. This appliance is equipped with surface
units of different size. Select pots and pans that have at
bottoms large enough to cover the surface area of the heating
element. Using undersized cookware will expose a portion of
the heating element to direct contact and may result in the
ignition of clothing. Matching the size of the pot or pan to the
burner will also improve efciency.
• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend
Over Adjacent Surface Units – To reduce the risk of
burns, ignition of ammable materials, or spillage due to
unintentional contact with utensils, position utensil handles so
that they are turned inward and do not extend over adjacent
surface units.
• Glazed cooking utensils. Only certain types of glass, glass/
ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed cookware can
be used for rangetop service without breaking due to sudden
changes in temperature.
• Cleaning. Read and follow all instructions and warnings on
the cleaning cream labels.
• Be sure you know which control knob operates each surface
unit. Make sure you turned on the correct surface unit.
• Always turn the surface units off before removing cookware.
• When preparing aming foods under the hood, turn the fan
on.
• Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or medium high
heat settings.
• Do not store heavy items above the cooktop surface that
could fall and damage it.
• Do not Use Decorative Surface Element Covers – If an element
is accidentally turned on, the decorative cover will become
hot and possibly melt. Burns will occur if the hot covers are
touched. Damage may also be done to the cooktop.
