IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
OVEN
Protective Liners — DO NOT USE ALUMINUM FOIL
to line the oven bottom. Only use aluminum foil as
recommended in this manual. Improper installation of
these liners may result in risk of electric shock, or fire.
• Use care when opening oven door, warmer
drawer or lower oven door — Stand to the side of
the range when opening the door of a hot oven.
Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or
replace food in the oven.
• Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. The oven
vent is located below the backguard. Touching
the surfaces in this area when the oven is operat-
ing may cause severe burns. Also, do not place
plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near the oven
vent. These items could melt or ignite.
• Placement of interior oven racks. Always place
oven racks in desired location while oven is cool.
If rack must be moved while oven is hot use
extreme caution. Use potholders and grasp the
rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let pot-
holders contact the hot heating elements in the
oven. Remove all utensils from the rack before
moving.
• Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The
broiler pan and its insert allow dripping fat to drain
and be kept away from the high heat of the
broiler.
• Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil.
Exposed fat and grease could ignite.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
COOKTOP
• Know which knob controls each surface heating
unit. Place a pan of food on the surface element
unit before turning it on, and turn the element off
before removing the pan.
• Use proper pan size — This appliance is
equipped with one or more surface units of differ-
ent sizes. Select utensils specifically designed for
induction ranges having flat bottoms large
enough to cover the surface of the induction
zone. Proper relationship of cookware to zone will
also improve efficiency. If improperly placed, the
display will flash until the cookware is placed
properly on the induction zone.
• Cookware handles should be turned inward and
not extend over adjacent surface elements. — To
reduce the risk of burns and spillage due to unin-
tentional contact with the utensil, the handle of
the cookware should be positioned so that it is
turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent
surface units.
• Never leave surface elements unattended at high
heat settings — Boil overs cause smoking and
greasy spills.
• Glazed cooking utensils — Only certain types of
cookware are suitable for cook top service and
must be magnetic to work properly on the induc-
tion zones. Check the manufacturer’s recommen-
dations for cook top use to ensure that the
cookware is compatible with induction cooking.
• When flaming foods under a ventilating hood,
turn the fan on.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CERAMIC-GLASS
COOK TOP MODELS
• Do not cook on broken cook top—If cook top
should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers
may penetrate the broken cook top and create a
risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified techni-
cian immediately.
• Clean cook top with caution—If a wet sponge
or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking
area, be careful to avoid a steam burn. Some
cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to
a hot surface.
