important safety instructions _
4
Use only dry potholders.
Placing moist or damp potholders on hot
surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let the potholder touch
hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth on or near
the range.
Teach children not to play with the controls or any other part of the range.
For your safety, do not use high-pressure water cleaners or steam jet cleaners
to clean the any part of the range.
If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer,
its service agent or similarly qualified persons to avoid creating a hazard.
The appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
SURFACE COOKING UNITS
Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings.
Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
To avoid oil spillover and fire, use a minimum amount of oil when shallow
pan-frying and avoid cooking frozen foods with excessive amounts of ice.
Do not lift the cooktop.
Lifting the cooktop can damage the range and
cause the range to malfunction.
Do not operate the cooktop without cookware.
If you operate the
cooktop without cookware, the control knobs will become hot.
Never use the glass cooktop surface as a cutting board.
Use care when touching the cooktop.
The glass surface of the
cooktop will retain heat after the controls have been turned off.
Be careful when placing spoons or other stirring utensils on the
glass cooktop surface
when it is in use. They may become hot and
could cause burns.
Use proper pan sizes.
This appliance is equipped with surface units of
different sizes. Select pots and pans that have flat bottoms large enough
to cover the surface area of the heating element. Using undersized
cookware will expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact
and may result in the ignition of clothing. Matching the size of the pot or
pan to the burner will also improve efficiency.
