1.7 Gas safety
WARNING
To prevent carbon monoxide build-up, do not block appli-
ance air vents.
WARNING
Have the installer show you where the gas shut-off valve
is located.
If a burner goes out and gas escapes, open windows and
doors. Wait until gas dissipates before using the appli-
ance.
If you smell gas, your installer has not done a proper job
of checking for leaks. If the connections are not perfectly
tight, you can have a small leak and, therefore, a faint
smell. If you smell gas, immediately shut off the unit and
contact an authorized service provider to diagnose the is-
sue. Read the WARNING about gas smell.
WARNING
Keep the igniter ports clean for proper lighting perfor-
mance of the burners. It is necessary to clean these when
there is a boilover or when the burner does not light even
though the electronic igniters click.
For proper burner performance, keep igniters clean and
dry.
CAUTION
All igniters spark when any single burner is turned on.
▶
Do not touch any of the burners when the cooktop is in
use.
WARNING
To prevent flare-ups all grates must be properly positioned
on the cooktop whenever the cooktop is in use. Each of
the feet must be placed into the corresponding dimples in
the cooktop.
▶
Do not use a grate if the rubber feet are missing or
damaged.
To prevent flare-ups do not use the cooktop without all
burner caps and all burner grates properly positioned.
WARNING
Use this appliance only for its intended use as described
in this manual.
▶
NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or
warm the room. Doing so may result in carbon monox-
ide poisoning and overheating the appliance.
WARNING
The burning of gas cooking fuel can create small amounts
of carbon monoxide, benzene, formaldehyde and soot. To
minimize exposure to these substances the burners
should be adjusted by a certified installer or agency to en-
sure proper combustion.
▶
Ensure proper ventilation with an open window or use a
ventilation fan or hood when cooking with gas.
▶
Always operate the unit according to the instructions in
this manual.
