IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Improper cookware may break due to sud-
den changes in temperature. Check the cook-
ware manufacturer’s recommendations for
cooktop use.
Use proper pan size - This appliance is
equipped with one or more surface units of
diff erent sizes. Select cookware with fl at bot-
toms that match the surface unit size. Using
the proper cookware on the cooking area will
improve effi
ciency.
Never leave surface elements unattended.
Boil-overs may cause smoking and greasy
spills that may ignite. A pan that has boiled
dry could be damaged and may damage the
cooktop.
When you are fl aming foods under a ventilat-
ing hood, turn on the fan.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR INDUCTION COOKTOP
CAUTION
Persons with a pacemaker or similar medi-
cal device should exercise caution using or
standing near an induction unit while it is in
operation, as the electromagnetic fi eld may
aff ect the working of the pacemaker or sim-
ilar medical device. It would be advisable
to consult your doctor or the pacemaker or
similar medical device manufacturer about
your particular situation.
Know which knob or key controls each sur-
face heating area. Place cookware with food
on the cooking area before turning it on. Turn
the cooking area off before removing the
cookware.
Cookware handles should be turned inward
and not extend over adjacent surface ele-
ments. — To reduce the risk of burns, ignition
of fl ammable materials, and spillage due
to unintentional contact with the utensil, the
handle of the cookware should be positioned
so that it is turned inward, and does not ex-
tend over other cooking areas.
Glazed cooking utensils — Only certain types
of cookware are suitable for cook top service
and must be magnetic to work properly on
the induction zones. Check the manufactur-
er’s recommendations for cook top use to
ensure that the cookware is compatible with
induction cooking.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR GLASS
AND CERAMIC COOKTOPS
Do Not Clean or Operate a Broken Cooktop.
If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions
and spillovers may penetrate the broken
cooktop and create a risk of electric shock.
Contact a qualifi ed technician immediately.
Clean cooktop glass 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
harmful fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Avoid scratching the cooktop glass with
sharp objects.
