Cooktop safety
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, personal injuries, and/or death, observe
the following precautions.
• Make sure all burners are off when you
are not using them.
• 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 the burners make sure
all burner caps are properly in place
and all burners are level.
• Always use the Lite position when igniting the burners and make sure the
burners have ignited. If ignition fails, turn the knob to OFF and wait until the
gas has dissipated.
• 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 for use with a wok or wok ring attachment.
• To flame food, you must have a ventilation hood. When you flame food, the
hood must be on.
• Before removing or changing cookware, turn off the burners.
• Remove food and cookware immediately after cooking.
• Before removing any parts of the burner for cleaning, make sure the range is
off and completely cool.
• After cleaning the burner spreader, 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 into the cooktop well
while cleaning.
• Select a level, well-constructed floor that can support the range’s weight.
Synthetic flooring, such as linoleum, must withstand 180 °F (82 °C)
temperatures without shrinking, warping, or discoloring.
Do not install
the range directly over interior kitchen carpeting unless a sheet of ¼ inch
plywood or a similar insulator is placed between the range and carpeting.
Select a location where a grounded, 3- prong outlet is easily accessible.
• If the range is located near a window, do not hang long curtains or paper
blinds on that window.
• Do not block or cover the vents (air openings) located at the rear of the range
and at the top and bottom of the door. The vents allow for air circulation
that is necessary for the range to operate properly with correct combustion.
Blocking or covering the vents may cause incorrect combustion which could
result in gas leaks and fire.
• Make sure the wall coverings around the range can withstand heat up to
200 °F (93 °C) generated by the range.
• Cabinet storage above the surface of the range should be avoided. If cabinet
storage above the range is necessary: allow a minimum clearance of 40 inches
(102 cm) between the cooking surface and the bottom of the cabinet or install
a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5 inches (12.7 cm)
beyond the bottom of the cabinets.
• Locate the range out of kitchen traffic paths and drafty locations to prevent
poor air circulation.
• If the range is located near a window, NEVER hang long curtains or paper
blinds on that window. They could blow over the surface burners and ignite,
causing a fire hazard.
