PRELIMINARY
• For proper lighting and performance of the
cooktop burners, keep the burner ports clean.
It may be necessary to clean these when there
is a boil over or when the burner does not
light, even though the electronic igniters click.
• Clean the cooktop with caution. Avoid steam
burns; do not use a wet sponge or cloth to
clean the cooktop while it is hot. Some clean-
ers produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot
surface. Follow directions provided by the
cleaner manufacturer.
• Be sure all the cooktop controls are turned off
and the appliance is cool before using any
type of aerosol cleaner on or around the ap-
pliance. The chemical that produces the
spraying action could, in the presence of heat,
ignite or cause metal parts to corrode.
• Clean the ventilator hood and filters above
the cooktop frequently so grease from cook-
ing vapor does not accumulate.
• Turn the ventilator OFF in case of fire or when
intentionally “flaming” liquor or other spirits
on the cooktop. The blower, if in operation,
could spread the flames.
• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion or
ventilation air to the appliance. Be sure a fresh
air supply is available.
• For safety reasons and to avoid damage to the
appliance never sit, stand, or lean on the cook-
ing surface.
• Service should only be done by authorized
technicians. Service technicians must discon-
nect the power supply before servicing this
appliance.
