IMPORT~ SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

(continued)

●Use little fat for effective shallow or deep-fat frying. Filling the pan too fill of fat can cause spillovers when food is added.

●If a combination of oils or fats will be used in frying, stir together before heating, or as fats melt slowly.

. Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.

. Use a deep-fat thermometer whenever possible to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point.

●Be sure the downdraft vent grille is not covered. Be sure the filter is in place. Its absence during cooking could damage blower parts.

●Do not cover or block the area around the cooktop system knobs. This area must be kept clear for proper ventilation and burner performance.

. Keep all plastics away from cooktop surface units and burners.

●Do not operate the halogenkadiant surface units if the glass is broken. Spillovers or cleaning solution may penetrate a broken cooktop and create a risk of electrical shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately should your glass cooktop become broken.

●Never use the glass cooktop surface as a cutting board.

●Do not place or store items on top of the glass cooktop surface when it is not in USA

●Do not stand on the glass cooktop.

. Be carefid when placing spoons or other stirring utensils on the glass cooktop surface when it is in use. They may become hot and could cause bums.

●Clean the cooktop with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface unit, be careful to avoid steam bums. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

When the cooktop is cool, use only Cook Top Cleaning Creme brand cleaner to clean the Cooktop.

QDo not use a wok on the gas burners if the wok has a round metal ring which is placed over the burner grate to support the wok. This ring acts as a heat trap that may damage the burner grate and burner head. Also, it may cause the burner to work improperly. This may cause a carbon monoxide level above that allowed by current standards, resulting in a health hazard.

. If you smell gas, turn off the gas to the cooktop at the gas cutoff valve and call a qualified service technician. Never use an open flame to locate a leak.

. Do not operate the gas burners without all burner parts and grate in place.

●Let the gas burner grate and other surfaces cool before touching them.

●Do not leave grate removed from any component where children can reach them.

●Never leave gas burners unattended at high flame settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.

●For your safety, never use your gas burners for warming or heating the room. Prolonged use of the cooktop in this way can be hazardous.
