create a risk of electrical shock. Contact a qualified
technician immediately.

Clean Smoothtop Module 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 noxious fumes if applied to a
hot surface.

1.
Clean Vents Frequently. Grease should not be
allowed to accumulate on vent or filter.

When flaming foods under hood, turn fan off. The fan,
if operating, may spread the flame.
