WARNING
If you receive a damaged product, immediately contact your dealer or builder. Do not install or use a damaged appliance. •
Do not operate the cooktop if the ceramic glass top is broken or severely pitted. Call a qualified technician to repair it. •
Make sure that the cooktop has been properly installed and grounded by a qualified installer according to the accompanying •
installation instructions. Have the installer show you the location of the circuit breaker panel or fuse box so that you know where
and how to turn off power to the range.
Do not install, repair or replace any part of the cooktop unless specifically recommended in the literature accompanying it. A
•
qualified service technician should perform all other service.
Before performing any type of service, make sure that power to the range is turned off at the circuit breaker or fuse box.
•
NEVER block or cover any slots, holes or passages anywhere on the chassis. Doing so blocks airflow through the chassis and •
may cause a fire hazard.
Only use the cooktop for cooking tasks expected of a home appliance as outlined in this manual. This appliance is not intended
•
for commercial use.
DO NOT TOUCH THE SURFACES OF THE COOKTOP, OTHER THAN THE CONTROLS, DURING OR IMMEDIATELY AFTER
•
USE.
Make sure individuals who use the cooktop are able to operate it properly.
•
Never allow anyone, including children to sit, stand or climb on any part of the cooktop. Doing so may cause damage, serious •
injury or death. Do not leave children or pets alone or unattended in the area around the cooktop. Do not allow children to play
with the controls or touch other parts of the cooktop.
Do not tamper with the controls.
•
Do not cover the cooktop with anything except properly selected utensils. Decorative covers may cause a fire hazard or damage •
to the cooktop if an element is accidentally turned on with the cover in place.
Do not heat unopened food containers such as baby food jars, cans or eggs. Pressure build up may cause the container to burst
•
and cause injury.
Clean and maintain the cooktop regularly as instructed in this manual. Keep the cooktop, ventilation filters and range hood free
•
of grease that could catch fire. Clean only the parts specified in this manual. Clean them only in the manner instructed.
Do not wear loose or hanging apparel while using the cooktop. Do not allow clothing to come into contact with the top of the
•
cooktop or surrounding areas during and immediately after use.
Do not use towels or bulky cloth as pot holders.
•
Do not hang flammable or heat sensitive objects over the cooktop. •
If the cooktop is near a window, do not use long curtains as window treatment. The curtains could blow over the top and create a •
fire hazard.
To avoid the possibility of fire, do not leave the cooktop unattended when in use.
•
Keep flammable items, such as paper, cardboard, plastic and cloth away from the elements and other hot surfaces. Do not allow •
pot holders to touch hot surfaces.
When deep fat frying:
•
Be certain that the pan is large enough to contain the desired volume of food without overflow caused by the bubbling of the ◊
fat. Never leave a deep fat fryer unattended.
Avoid frying moist or frost-covered foods. Foods with high water content may cause spattering or spilling of the hot fat.
◊
Heat fat slowly, and stir together any combination of oils and fats prior to applying heat. Utilize a deep fat frying thermometer ◊
to avoid heating the fat to temperatures above the flash point.
Do not use the cooktop as a counter to store utensils or other items. Doing so may damage the items, the elements and/or the •
cooktop.
To avoid a burn hazard, always turn pan handles to the side or to the back of the range. Do not turn handles outward from the
•
range where they may be easily hit, causing hot food to spill.
Do not allow pans to boil dry.
