Cleaning.
Read and follow all instructions and warnings on
the cleaning cream labels.
•
Be sure you know which control knob operates each surface
unit. Make sure you turned on the correct surface unit.
•
Always turn the surface units off before removing cookware.
•
When preparing flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan
on.
•
Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or medium high
heat settings.
•
Do not store heavy items above the cooktop surface that
could fall and damage it.
•
Do not Use Decorative Surface Element Covers
– If an
element is accidentally turned on, the decorative cover
will become hot and possibly melt. Burns will occur if the
hot covers are touched. Damage may also be done to the
cooktop.
•
Proper Installation
- Be sure your appliance is properly
installed and grounded by a qualified technician.
•
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 size. 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.
•
Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend
Over Adjacent Surface Units
– To reduce the risk of
burns, ignition of flammable materials, or spillage due to
unintentional contact with utensils, position utensil handles
so that they are turned inward and do not extend over
adjacent surface units.
•
Glazed cooking utensils.
Only certain types of glass, glass/
ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed cookware can
be used for rangetop service without breaking due to sudden
changes in temperature.
