Risk of burns from high temperatures. You

ing area including side panels may get hot
enough to burn skin. Use extreme caution to
avoid coming in contact with hot surfaces or
hot grease. Wear personal protective equip-

Cooking with Induction Counter-Tops Models
n
Warning
Never Leave An Empty Pan On Cooktop
Induction appliances heat up empty pans
very quickly. Never operate the appliance
with an empty pan. Do not pre-heat pan. Al-
ways put food products, water or oil into the
pan before turning on the appliance. Failure
to do so will result in irreparable damage.
Notice
Broil-Dry Protection
Cook zones are monitored by temperature
sensors. The sensors can detect overheating
at the base of a cooking pan.
When an overheated pan (overheated oil,
empty pan) is detected, the appliance stops
transferring energy to the pan immediately.
You must turn off the appliance and let it cool
down before re-starting the appliance.
,
Caution
Do Not Touch Overheated Appliance
To avoid burn injuries, do not touch the ap-
pliance when a pan is overheated and take
all the necessary precautions when removing
the overheated pan.
n
Warning
Steam can cause serious burns. Always wear
some type of protective covering on your
hands and arms when removing lids or pans
from the appliance. Lift the lid or pan in a way
that will direct escaping steam away from
your face and body.
n
Warning
Never leave any pan during the cooking pro-
cess unattended.
