Glass Rangetop

All products are wiped clean with solvents at the factory to remove any
visible signs of dirt, oil, and grease which may have remained from the
manufacturing process.

Clean your glass top before the first time

you use it. A thorough cleaning with a glass top cleaner is
recommended.

Cookware

Each cook has his or her own preference for the particular cookware
that is most appropriate for the type of cooking being done. This a
matter of personal choice. As with any cookware, yours should be in
good condition and free from excessive dents on the bottom to
provide maximum performance and convenience. When using big
pots, it is recommended to use the front elements. There is more room
in the front and potential cleanup of rear of appliance due to staining
or discoloration will be minimized.

Heating Elements and Glass Ceramic Cooking Surfaces

• Surface areas on or adjacent to the unit may be hot enough to cause burns.

• NEVER

touch the glass surface areas directly on or adjacent to the heating

elements when the rangetop is in use.

• Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near

elements may become hot enough to cause burns.

• During and after use,

DO NOT

touch or let clothing or other flammable

material contact surface of rangetop or areas near heating elements until they
have had sufficient time to cool.

DO NOT COOK ON BROKEN COOKING SURFACE

– If cooking surface

should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken
cooking surface and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified
technician immediately.

Cleaning Safety

• Turn off all controls and wait for appliance parts to cool before touching or

cleaning them.

DO NOT

touch the surface elements or surrounding areas

until they have had sufficient time to cool.

• Clean appliance with caution. Use care to avoid steam burns if a wet

sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface. Some cleaners can
produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
