IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety
precautions should be followed, including the
following:

• Be sure your appliance is properly installed

and grounded by a qualified installer in
accordance with the provided installation
instructions.

• Have the installer show you the location of 

the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy
reference.

• Use this appliance only for its intended use 

as described in this guide.

• Do not attempt to repair or replace any 

part of your cooktop unless it is specifically
recommended in this guide. All other
servicing should be referred to a qualified
technician.

• Before performing any service, DISCONNECT

THE COOKTOP POWER SUPPLY AT THE
HOUSEHOLD DISTRIBUTION PANEL BY
REMOVING THE FUSE OR SWITCHING
OFF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER.

• Do not leave children alone—children should

not be left alone or unattended in an area
where an appliance is in use. They should
never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of
the appliance.

• Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang 

on the cooktop.

• CAUTION: ITEMS OF INTEREST TO

CHILDREN SHOULD NOT BE STORED IN
CABINETS ABOVE A COOKTOP— CHILDREN
CLIMBING ON THE COOKTOP TO REACH
ITEMS COULD BE SERIOUSLY INJURED.

• Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments

while using the appliance. Be careful when
reaching for items stored in cabinets over the
cooktop. Flammable material could be ignited
if brought in contact with hot surface unit and
may cause severe burns.

• Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot

holders on hot surfaces may result in burns
from steam. Do not let pot holders touch hot
surface unit. Do not use a towel or other bulky
cloth in place of a pot holder. Such cloths can
catch fire on a hot surface unit.

• For your safety, never use your appliance for

warming or heating the room.

• Do not store flammable materials near the

cooktop.

• Keep the hood and grease filters clean to

maintain good venting and to avoid grease fires.

• Do not store or use combustible materials,

gasoline or other flammable vapors and
liquids in the vicinity of this or any other
appliance.

• Do not let cooking grease or other flammable

materials accumulate on the cooktop.

• Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up

a flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother
a flaming pan on surface unit by covering the
pan completely with a well-fitting lid, cookie
sheet or flat tray. Use a multi-purpose dry
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher. 

Flaming grease outside a pan can be put out by
covering it with baking soda or, if available, by
using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-
type fire extinguisher.

• Clean the cooktop with caution. If a wet

sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot
surface unit, be careful to avoid steam burns.
Some cleansers can produce noxious fumes if
applied to a hot surface. 

NOTE:

We recommend that you avoid wiping

any surface unit areas until they have cooled
and the indicator light has gone off. Sugar
spills are the exception to this. Please see the
Glass Cooktop Cleaning section.

When the cooktop is cool, use only the
recommended cleaning cream to clean the
cooktop.

WARNING!

For your safety, the information in this guide must be followed to minimize the risk of fire, electric
shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
