Surface Burner Warnings
–
The burner spreader can be blocked by food or dust. Clean the spreader
if it appears blocked. If you clean the spreader with water, assemble it only
after it is completely dry. If the spreader is wet, it might prevent the burners
from igniting.
–
Do not pour water on the cooktop for cleaning. It can get inside the range
and cause the parts inside to rust.
–
Only ignite the cooktop burners with the burner caps in place. If the
burner caps are not in place, you can damage the controls or cause an
unintended large or dangerous flame.
–
Heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling. To prevent
delayed eruptive boiling, ALWAYS allow heated beverages to stand at least
20 seconds after you have turned the burner off so that the temperature
in the liquid can stabilize. In the event of scalding, follow these FIRST AID
instructions:
• Immerse the scalded area in cold water for at least 10 minutes
• Cover with clean, dry dressing
• Do not apply any creams, oils or lotions
–
The ‘Spark mark’ on the Dual burner spreader must be placed beside the
electrode when it is assembled to prevent an abnormal flame.
–
After turning on a surface burner, check to make sure that the burner has
ignited. Adjust the level of the flame by turning the burner knob.
–
When you set a burner to simmer, do not turn the burner knob quickly.
Watch the flame to make sure it stays on.
