IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Child Safety
When children become old enough to use
the appliance, it is the responsibility of
the parents or legal guardians to ensure
that they are instructed in safe practices
by qualified persons.
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand, lean,
sit, or hang on any part of an appliance,
especially a door, warming drawer, or
storage drawer. This can damage the
appliance, and the unit may tip over,
potentially causing severe injury.
Do not allow children to use this
appliance unless closely supervised by
an adult. Children and pets should not be
left alone or unattended in the area where
the appliance is in use. They should never
be allowed to play in its vicinity, whether
or not the appliance is in use.

CAUTION
Items of interest to children should
not be stored in an appliance, in
cabinets above an appliance or on
the backsplash. Children climbing
on an appliance to reach items could
be seriously injured.
Cleaning Safety
Do not clean the appliance while it is still
hot. Some cleaners produce noxious
fumes when applied to a hot surface. Wet
clothes and sponges can cause burns
from steam.
Do not use steam cleaners to clean the
appliance.
Cookware Safety
Hold the handle of the pan when stirring
or turning food. This helps prevent spills
and movement of the pan.
Use Proper Pan Size.
The use of undersized cookware will
expose a portion of the heating element
or burner to direct contact and may result
in ignition of clothing. Select cookware
having flat bottoms large enough to cover
the surface heating unit. This appliance is
equipped with one or more surface units
of different size. Proper relationship of
cookware to heating element or burner
will also improve efficiency.
Cookware not approved for use with
ceramic cooktops may break with sudden
temperature changes. Use only pans that
are appropriate for ceramic induction
cooktops.
Always position handles of utensils
inward so they do not extend over
adjacent work areas, burners, or the edge
of the cooktop. This reduces the risk of
fires, spills and burns.

WARNING
RISK of injury!
When cooking with a double-boiler
the cooktop and cooking vessel may
crack due to overheating. The
cooking vessel in the double-boiler
must not come in direct contact with
the bottom of the pot filled with
water. Use only heat-resistant
cookware.
