Important safety instructions
SURFACE COOKING UNITS
•
Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings.
Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may
ignite.
• Protective Liners – Do not use aluminum foil to line surface
unit drip bowls or oven bottoms, except as suggested in the
manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in a
risk of electric shock or fire.
•
Do not lift the cooktop.
Lifting the cooktop can damage the
cooktop and cause the cooktop to malfunction.
• Never use the glass cooktop surface as a cutting board.
•
Use care when touching the cooktop.
The glass surface of
the cooktop will retain heat after the controls have been
turned off.
•
Use proper pan sizes.
This appliance is equipped with
surface units of different size. Select pots and pans that
have flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface area of
the heating element. Using undersized cookware will expose
a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may
result in the ignition of clothing. Matching the size of the
pot or pan to the burner will also improve efficiency.
•
Cookware Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not
Extend Over Adjacent Surface Units
– To reduce the risk
of burns, ignition of flammable materials, or spillage due
to unintentional contact with cookware, position cookware
handles so that they are turned inward and do not extend
over adjacent surface units.
•
Glazed cookware.
Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic,
ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed cookware can be
used for rangetop service without breaking due to sudden
changes in temperature.
• Always turn the surface units off before removing cookware.
• Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or medium high
heat settings.
• To avoid oil spillover and fire, use a minimum amount of oil
when shallow pan-frying and avoid cooking frozen foods
that have excessive amounts of ice.
•
Do not operate the cooktop without cookware.
If the
cooktop operates without cookware, the control knobs will
become hot.
• Do not move the container and bowl in a horizontal position
on cooktop surface.
