MIDEA MES30S4AST - Manual (Page 8)

It is strongly recommended that a CLASS ABC or CLASS K fire
extinguisher be kept near the range in an easily accessible location, and
that household members are familiarized in advance with its operating
instructions.
Never leave cooktop heating elements unattended. Boil-over causes
smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or
other glazed utensils are suitable for range-top service without break-
ing due to the sudden change in temperature.

To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage
due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of a utensil
should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend
over the front of the counter top or over adjacent cooktop heating
elements.
Do not cook on a 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 service provider immediately
for repairs.
DO NOT TOUCH COOKTOP HEATING ELEMENTS OR AREAS NEAR
ELEMENTS –
Cooktop heating elements may be hot even though they
are dark in color. Areas near cooktop heating elements may become hot
enough to cause burns. During and after
use, do not touch, or let
clothing or other flammable materials contact cooktop heating elements
or areas near elements until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among
these areas are the cook-top and surfaces facing the cook-top.
Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with cooktop heating
elements of different size. Select utensils having flat bottoms large
enough to cover the entire cooktop heating element heating element.
The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the heating
element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper
relationship of utensil to burner will also improve efficiency.
