Information
Proper Installation-Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded
by a qualified technician.
Never Use Your Appliance for Warming or Heating the Room.
Do Not Leave Children Alone-Children should not be left alone or unattended in area
where appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of
the appliance.
Wear Proper Apparel-Loose-fitting or hanging garments should never be worn
while using the appliance.
User Servicing-Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless
specifically recommended in the manual. All other servicing should be referred to
a qualified technician.
Storage in or on Appliance-Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven
or near surface units.
Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires-Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or
foam-type extinguisher.
Use Only Dry Potholders-Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in
burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a
towel or other bulky cloth.
Use Proper Pan Size-This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of
different size. Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface
unit 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.
Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High Heat Settings-Boilover causes
smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
Make Sure Reflector Pans or Drip Bowls Are in Place-Absence of these pans or
bowls during cooking may subject wiring or components underneath to damage.
Protective Liners-Do not use aluminum foil to line surface unit drip bowls or oven
bottoms, except as suggested in the manual. Improper installation of these liners
may result in a risk of electric shock, or fire.
Glazed Cooking Utensils-Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic,
earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for range-top service
without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.
Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend Over Adjacent Surface
Units-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 adjacent surface
units.
Do Not Soak Removable Heating Elements-Heating elements should never be
immersed in water.
