IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ik WARNING Use Proper Pan Size. This
appliance is equipped with one or more surface
units of different sizes. Select utensils having
flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface
unit. The use of undersized utensils will expose
a portion of the surface heating unit to direct
contact and may result in ignition of clothing.
Proper relationship of utensil to the surface unit
will also improve efficiency.
• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward
from Edges of Cooktop and Should Not Extend
Over Adjacent Surface Units. To reduce the risk
of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and
spillage due to unintentional contact with the
utensil.
• Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at a
Hi Heat Settings. Bo Movers cause smoking and
greasy spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that
has boiled dry may melt.
• Protective Liners. Do not use aluminum foil to line
any part of the appliance. Only use aluminum
foil as recommended for baking if used as
a
cover placed on the food. Any other use of
protective liners or aluminum foil may result in
a
risk of electric shock or fire or short circuit.
• Glazed Cooking Utensils. Only certain types
of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware,
or other glazed utensils are suitable for range
top service without breaking due to the sudden
change in temperature. Check the manufacturer’s
recommendations for cooktop use.
• Ventilating hood. The ventilating hood above
your cooking surface should be cleaned
frequently, so the grease from cooking vapors
does not accumulate on the hood or filter.
• 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
appliance.
• Do Not Clean or Operate a Broken Cooktop.
If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and
spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop
and create
a risk of electric shock. Contact a
qualified technician immediately.
• Clean Cooktop 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 harmful fumes if applied
to a hot surface.
• Do Not Place Hot Cookware on Cold Cooktop
Glass. This could cause glass to break.
• Do not slide pans across the cooktop surface.
They may scratch the cooktop surface.
• Do not let pans boil dry. Pans that boil dry
may permanently damage the cooktop by
breaking, fusing to, or marking it. (This type of
damage is not covered by your warranty).

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic
Enforcement Act requires the Governor of
