IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
• To avoid oil spillover and fire, use a minimum amount of oil when shallow
pan-frying and avoid cooking frozen foods with excessive amounts of ice.
• Use proper pan size—select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to
cover the surface heating element. The use of undersized cookware will
expose a portion of the surface unit to direct contact and may result in
ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface unit will also
improve efficiency.
• Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, earthenware or other glazed
containers are suitable for cooktop service; others may break because of the
sudden change in temperature.
• To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of flammable materials and
spillage, the handle of a container should be turned toward the center of the
range without extending over nearby surface units.
• When preparing flaming foods under a hood, turn the fan on.
• If power is lost to an electric cooktop while a surface unit is ON, the surface
unit will turn back on as soon as power is restored. In the event of power loss,
failure to turn all surface unit knobs to the OFF position may result in ignition
of items on or near the cooktop, leading to serious injury or death.
RADIANT COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass surface of the cooktop will
retain heat after the controls have been turned off.
• Do not cook on a broken cooktop. If glass cooktop should break, cleaning
solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk
of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.
• Avoid scratching the glass cooktop. The cooktop can be scratched with items
such as knives, sharp instruments, rings or other jewelry, and rivets on
clothing.
• Do not place or store items that can melt or catch fire on the glass cooktop,
even when it is not being used. If the cooktop is inadvertently turned on,
they may ignite. Heat from the cooktop or oven vent after it is turned off may
cause them to ignite also.
• Use ceramic cooktop cleaner and a non-scratch cleaning pad to clean the
cooktop. Wait until the cooktop cools and the indicator light goes out before
cleaning. A wet sponge or cloth on a hot surface can cause steam burns.
Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
NOTE: Sugar spills are an exception. They should be scraped off while still
hot using an oven mitt and a scraper. See the Cleaning the glass cooktop
section for detailed instructions.
• Read and follow all instructions and warnings on the cleaning cream label.
