If the range is located near a window,
do not hang
long curtains or paper blinds on that
window.
•
For the range to ventilate properly, make sure the range’s vents are not blocked, and that
there is enough clearance at the top, back, sides, and underneath the range. The vents
allow the necessary exhaust for the range to operate properly with correct combustion.
• Make sure
the wall coverings around the range can withstand heat up to 200 °F (93 °C)
generated by the range.
•
Cabinet storage above the surface of the range should be avoided. If cabinet storage
above the range is necessary: allow a minimum clearance of 40 inches (102 cm) between
the cooking surface and the bottom of cabinets; or install a range hood that projects
horizontally a minimum of 5 inches (12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinets.
Cooktop safety
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, personal injuries, and/or death, obey the following
precautions.
• Make sure
all burners are off when not in use.
• Do not use
aluminium foil to line the grates or any
part of the cooktop. It may cause carbon monoxide
poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat,
causing a fire hazard.
• Do not leave
burners unattended on medium or high
heat settings.
•
Before igniting,
make sure
all burner caps are properly
in place and all burners are level.
• Always use
the LITE position when igniting the burners and make sure the burners have
ignited. If ignition fails, turn the knob to OFF and wait until the gas has dissipated.
•
When you set a burner to simmer,
do not turn
the knob quickly. Make sure the flame
stays on.
• Do not place
any objects other than cookware on the cooktop.
•
This cooktop is designed to cook with a wok or wok ring attachment. To flame food, you
must have a ventilation hood. When you flame food, the hood must be on.
•
Before removing or changing cookware, turn off the burners.
•
Remove food and cookware immediately after cooking.
•
Before removing any parts of the burner for cleaning, make sure the range is off and
completely cool.
•
After cleaning the burner spreader, make sure it is completely dry before re-assembling.
