IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR RADIANT COOKTOP
•
Know which knob or key controls each
surface heating area. Place cookware
with food on the cooking area before
turning it on. Turn the cooking area off
before removing the cookware.
•
Cookware handles should be turned
inward and not extend over adjacent
surface elements — To reduce the risk of
burns, ignition of flammable materials,
and spillage due to unintentional contact
with the utensil, the handle of the
cookware should be positioned so that it
is turned inward, and does not extend
over other cooking areas.
•
Use proper pan size - This appliance is
equipped with one or more surface units
of different sizes. Select cookware with
flat bottoms that match the surface unit
size. Using the proper cookware on the
cooking area will improve efficiency.
•
Glazed cooking utensils— Only certain
types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic,
earthenware, or other glazed utensils are
suitable for cooktop service without
breaking due to the sudden change in
temperature. Check the manufacturer’s
recommendations for cooktop use.
•
Improper cookware may break due to
sudden changes in temperature. Check
the cookware manufacturer’s recommen-
dations for cooktop use.
•
Never leave surface elements unat-
tended. Boil-overs may cause smoking
and greasy spills may ignite. A pan that
has boiled dry could be damaged and
may damage the cooktop.
•
Do not use a searing grill meant for use
with a broiler pan on the cooktop. The
searing grill is not designed for use on the
cooktop. Doing so may result in a fire.
•
When you are flaming foods under a
ventilating hood, turn on the fan.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR GLASS
AND CERAMIC COOKTOPS ONLY
•
Do Not Clean or Operate a Broken
Cooktop. If cooktop should break,
cleaning solutions and spillovers may
penetrate the broken cooktop and create
a risk of electric shock. Contact a
qualified technician immediately.
•
Clean cooktop glass with caution. If a wet
sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a
hot cooking area, be careful to avoid a
steam burn. Some cleaners can produce
harmful fumes if applied to a hot surface.
•
Avoid scratching the cooktop glass with
sharp objects.
