Cooktop safety
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, personal injury, or death, observe these
precautions:
• Make sure all burners are off when not
in use.
• Do not use aluminium foil to line the
grates or any part of the cooktop.
• Do not leave burners unattended on
medium or high heat settings.
• Before igniting, make sure all burner
caps are properly in place and all
burners are level.
• Always use the LITE position to ignite a burner, then make sure the burner has ignited.
If ignition fails, turn the knob to OFF, and wait a few minutes for the gas to dissipate.
• When you set a burner to simmer, do not turn the knob quickly. Make sure the flame
stays on.
• Do not place any objects other than cookware on the cooktop.
• This cooktop is designed to cook with a wok or wok ring attachment. If foods are
flamed, they should only be flamed under a ventilation hood that is on.
• Before removing or changing cookware, turn off the burners.
• Remove food and cookware immediately after cooking.
• Make sure all cooktop burners are off and all surfaces have completely cooled before
removing the grates and disassembling the burners.
• After cleaning the burner head, make sure it is completely dry before re-assembling.
• Make sure the spark mark on the dual burner spreader is placed beside the electrode
when it is assembled.
• To avoid carbon monoxide poisoning, do not pour water or other liquids into the
cooktop during cleaning.
• Select cookware that is designed for cooktops and that is large enough to cover the
grates. Burner flames should not extend beyond the bottom of the cookware.
• To avoid cookware discoloration, deformity, and/or carbon monoxide poisoning, do not
use cookware that is exceedingly larger than the grate.
• Turn cookware handles to the side or rear of the cooktop and not over active burners
or the front edge of the cooktop.
• Stand at a safe distance while frying to avoid hot spatter.
