DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR
UNITS. Surface units may be hot even though they are
dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot
enough to cause burns.
▶ During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing,
potholders, or other flammable materials contact
surface units or areas near units until they have had
sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are the
cooktop and areas facing the cooktop.
WARNING
Do not place metallic objects such as knives, forks,
spoons, and lids on the cooktop surface since they can
get hot.
Clean Cooktop With Caution.
▶ If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot
cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burn.
▶ Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to
a hot surface.
▶ Do not clean the appliance while it is still hot.
WARNING
The pan detection shut-off feature may not turn off the
cooking zone due to spilled food or objects placed on the
cooktop.
▶ Keep the cooktop clean and do not store objects on the
cooking zones.
WARNING
Liquid between the pot base and the cooktop may build up
steam pressure. This may cause the pot to jump suddenly
causing injury.
▶ Always keep the cooktop and bases of pots dry.
When cooking with a double-boiler, the cooktop and
cooking vessel may crack due to overheating.
▶ The cooking vessel in the double-boiler must not come
in direct contact with the bottom of the pot filled with
water.
▶ Use only heat-resistant cookware.
WARNING
If the surface is cracked, switch off the appliance to avoid
the possibility of electric shock.
Do Not Cook on a Broken Cooktop - If the cooktop should
break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the
broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock.
▶ Contact an authorized service provider immediately.
Safe use of the oven cavity
WARNING
If materials inside an oven or warming drawer should
ignite, keep door closed.
▶ Turn off the appliance and disconnect the circuit at the
circuit breaker box.
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven
bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as
aluminum foil.
▶ Doing so blocks air flow through the oven.
▶ Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire
hazard.
Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed.
WARNING
DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR
SURFACES OF OVEN - Heating elements may be hot
even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an
oven become hot enough to cause burns.
▶ During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing,
potholders, or other flammable materials contact
heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they
have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the
appliance may become hot enough to cause burns.
Among these surfaces are oven vent openings,
surfaces near these openings and oven doors.
CAUTION
Use caution when cooking foods with high alcohol content
(e.g. rum, brandy, bourbon) in the oven. Alcohol
evaporates at high temperatures. There is a risk of
burning as the alcohol vapors may catch fire in the oven.
▶ Use only small quantities of alcohol in foods, and open
the oven door carefully.
WARNING
Use Care When Opening Door - Let hot air or steam
escape before removing or replacing food.
▶ Standing to the side, open the door (or drawer) slowly
and slightly to let hot air and/or steam escape.
▶ Keep your face clear of the opening and make sure
there are no children or pets near the appliance.
▶ After the release of hot air and/or steam, proceed with
your cooking.
▶ Keep doors shut unless necessary for cooking or
cleaning purposes.
▶ Do not leave open doors unattended.
