WARNING
WARNING
To avoid serious burns or other personal injury, do not
store items of interest to children above or behind
cooktop. Children climbing on cooktop to reach items
could be seriously injured.
Be careful when reaching into storage cabinets above
cooktop while it is in operation. One might accidentally
contact a hot cooktop when using a hand for support
or have one’s clothing come in contact with top burner
flames.
Do not leave children alone or unwatched near the
cooktop when it is in use or while the surfaces are still
hot from use. Let burner grates and other surfaces
cool before touching them.
Do not wear loose fitting garments near the cooktop
while burners are in operation due to the possibility of
fabric ignition which may result in personal injury.
Always be certain parts of top burner area are cool
before touching with hands unprotected by a pot
holder. Use dry pot holders, never a trailing or moist
towel, apron, etc., when handling pans on the cooktop.
This will prevent burns to your hands from steam and
avoid the possibility of a fire.
Do not use the top burners to heat the kitchen. Grate
finishes may chip without a pan to absorb the heat and
adjacent surfaces may not withstand the resultant
heat.
If your cooktop is near a window, use an appropriate
window treatment—no long curtains which could blow
over the cooktop and create a fire hazard.
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion or
ventilation air.
