Cookware Safety (cont.)

•To minimize burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, DO NOT extend handles over adjacent surface burners. ALWAYS turn pan handles toward the side or back of the appliance, not out into the room where they are easily hit or reached by small children.

•NEVER let a pan boil dry as this could damage the utensil and the appliance.

•Follow the manufacturer's directions when using oven cooking bags.

•Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic or glazed cookware are suitable for cooktop surface without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Follow manufacturer's instructions when using glass.

•This appliance has been tested for safe performance using conventional cookware. DO NOT use any devices or accessories that are not specifically recommended in this guide. DO NOT use eyelid covers for the surface units, stovetop grills, or add-on oven convection systems. The use of devices or accessories that are not expressly recommended in this manual can create serious safety hazards, result in performance problems, and reduce the life of the components of the appliance.

•The flame of the burner should be adjusted to just cover the bottom of the pan or pot. Excessive burner setting may cause scorching of adjacent counter-top surfaces, as well as the outside of the cookware. This is based on safety considerations.

Glass Ceramic Cooking Surfaces

•NEVER touch the glass surface areas directly on or adjacent to the burners when the cooktop is in use.

•During and after use, DO NOT touch or let clothing or other flammable material contact surface of cooktop or areas near burners, until they have had sufficient time to cool.

•DO NOT COOK ON BROKEN COOKING SURFACE. If cooking surface should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooking surface and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.

Cleaning Safety

•Turn off all controls and wait for appliance parts to cool before touching or cleaning them. DO NOT touch the burners or surrounding areas until they have had sufficient time to cool.

•Clean appliance with caution. Use care to avoid steam burns if a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
