Cooking Safety
• Do not cook on a broken range top – if range top should break, cleaning solutions and
spillovers may penetrate the broken range top and create a risk of electric shock. If your
range top is broken, contact ZLINE immediately at 1-614-777-5004.
• Always remove the covers on sealed or canned goods before heating to avoid explosion.
• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use dry potholders or oven mitts to hold the handles of pots and
pans. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
• Use only dry potholders – moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in
burns from steam.
• Do not let the potholder touch hot heating elements.
• When the unit is on, do not touch outside the control panel, as the surface may contain
residual heat. It is important to be aware that the unit’s surface will remain hot for a short
period of time after use.
• DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS, HEATING ELEMENTS, INTERIOR SURFACES, OR
AREAS NEAR UNITS. Surface units may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas
near surface units may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not
touch or let clothing or other flammable materials contact surface units or areas near units
until they have had sufficient time to cool.
• Never pour cold water onto hot surfaces in a hot oven. The steam created could cause serious
burns or scalding and the sudden change in temperature can damage the enamel in the oven
• Do not use water on grease fires – smother fire or flame or use dry chemicals or a foam-type
extinguisher.
• Do not soak removable heating elements – heating elements should never be
immersed in water.
• Do not place any pot or pan on the open oven door. The door is made of glass and it can
break if loaded with a weight.
• Use care when opening door – let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food.
CAUTION
Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above the range or on the
backguard of a range – children climbing on the range to reach items could get
seriously injured.
• Do not allow children to touch or play in, on, or near the oven.
• Children should not be alone or unsupervised in the area where the appliance is installed.
• The oven gets hot at the oven door glass, the vapor vent, the handle, and the operating
controls, increasing risk of burns. Children’s skin is more sensitive to high temperatures than
that of adults.
