IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
14
If the cooktop has not been used for a long period of time, be sure
to thoroughly clean it and have it inspected by an authorized techni-
cian before using it again.
Ensure that the igniters are clean and dry to allow the burners to
ignite and burn properly.
Fire hazard! Loose-fitting or hanging garments can catch fire. Be
sure to wear appropriately fitting clothing when cooking. Never allow
loose clothing or flammable materials to come into contact with the
burners while the burners are in use.
When you have finished cooking, make sure that the burners are
turned off by checking the position of the knobs.
The grates, burner cap, bottom parts of the burner, and any other
parts located near the burner flame, can still be very hot after cook-
ing and cause burns. Do not touch these components when using
the cooktop.
Wind can blow curtains over the cooktop, causing them to catch
fire. If the cooktop is installed near a window, do not use long cur-
tains.
Only certain types of glass, ceramic or other enamel cookware
can be used on a gas cooktop without breaking as a result of sud-
den temperature changes.
Wet sponges or clothes can cause burns due to hot steam if they
are used to wipe spilled food off a hot burner. Some cleansers can
emit hazardous vapors if they are applied to a hot surface. Be careful
when cleaning the cooktop.
