WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, personal injuries, and/or death, obey the
following precautions.
•
This cooktop is for indoor, household use only.
Do not install
the cooktop in areas exposed to
the weather and/or water.
• Do not install
the cooktop in a place which is
exposed to a strong draft.

Select a location where a grounded, 3- prong outlet is easily accessible.
•
If the cooktop is located near a window,
do not hang
long curtains or paper
blinds on that window.
•
For the cooktop to ventilate properly, there is enough clearance at the top, back,
sides, and underneath the cooktop. The vents allow the necessary exhaust for the
cooktop to operate properly with correct combustion.
• Make sure
the wall coverings around the cooktop can withstand heat up to 194
°F (90 °C) generated by the cooktop.
•
Cabinet storage above the surface of the cooktop should be avoided. If cabinet
storage above the cooktop is necessary: allow a minimum clearance of 30 inches
(76.2 cm) between the cooking surface and the bottom of cabinets.
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.
•
Remove food and cookware immediately after cooking.
•
Before removing any parts of the burner for cleaning, make sure the cooktop is
off and completely cool.
•
After cleaning the burner spreader,
make sure
it is completely dry before re-
assembling.
•
To avoid carbon monoxide poisoning,
do not pour
water into the cooktop well
while cleaning.
•
Select cookware that is designed for top-cooktop cooking. Use cookware that is
large enough to cover the burner grates. Adjust the burner flames so that the
flames do not extend beyond the bottom of the cookware.
•
To avoid cookware discoloration, deformity, and/or carbon monoxide poisoning,
do not use
cookware that is exceedingly larger than the grate.
• Make sure
cookware handles are turned to the side or rear of the cooktop, but
not over other cooktop burners.
