members are familiarized in advance with its
operating instructions.
• Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic,
earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable
for range-top service without breaking due to the
sudden change in temperature.
• To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable
materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact
with the utensil, the handle of a utensil should be
positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not
extend over the front of the counter top or over
adjacent surface units.
• DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE BURNERS OR AREAS
NEAR BURNERS - Surface burners may be hot even
though they are dark in color. Areas near surface
burners may become hot enough to cause burns.
During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or
other flammable materials contact surface burners
or areas near elements until they have had sufficient
time to cool. Among these areas are the cooktop
and surfaces facing the cooktop.
• Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with
burners of different size. Select utensils having flat
bottoms large enough to cover the entire surface
burners. The use of undersized utensils will expose a
portion of the heating element to direct contact and
may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship
of utensil to burner will also improve efficiency.
• In the event that personal clothing or hair catches
fire, drop and roll immediately to extinguish flame
• Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or
when flambéing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries
Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).
