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.
• 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. If foods are flamed, they should only be flamed under
a ventilation hood that is on.
•
Before removing or changing cookware, turn off the burners.
•
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 194 °F (90 °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.
