SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

•Before performing any service,

DISCONNECT THE COOKTOP POWER SUPPLY AT THE HOUSEHOLD DISTRIBUTION PANEL BY REMOVING THE FUSE OR SWITCHING OFF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER.

•Do not leave children alone—children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where an appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.

•Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang on the drip tray handles or cooktop. They could damage the cooktop and even tip it over, causing severe personal injury.

•Do not store flammable materials near the cooktop.

•CAUTION: ITEMS OF INTEREST TO CHILDREN SHOULD NOT BE STORED IN CABINETS ABOVE A COOKTOP— CHILDREN CLIMBING ON THE COOKTOP TO REACH ITEMS COULD BE SERIOUSLY INJURED.

•For your safety, never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.

•Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while using the appliance. Be careful when reaching for items stored over the cooktop. Flammable material could be ignited if brought in contact with burners or burner grates and may cause severe burns.

•Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holders touch burners or burner grates. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.

•When cooking, do not touch the burners, burner grates, grille or griddle (on some models) or the surrounding areas.

These surfaces may be hot enough to burn.

During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact, the burners, grille or griddle (on some models) or areas near the burners; allow sufficient time for cooling first.

Potentially hot surfaces include the cooktop, areas facing the cooktop and the drip tray handles.

The drip trays can get hot. Do not remove the drip trays until they are cool.

•Keep the ventilator hood and grease filters clean to maintain good venting and to avoid grease fires. Turn the ventilator OFF in case of fire or when intentionally “flaming” liquor or other spirits on the cooktop. The blower, if in operation, could spread the flames.

•DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilation air to the appliance. Be sure a fresh air supply is available.
