IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:

Have the installer show you the location of the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference.

Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this guide.

Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician in accordance with the provided installation instructions.

Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your cooktop unless it is specifically recommended in this guide. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

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 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.

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

Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat after the controls have been turned off.

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

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 a hot surface unit. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of a pot holder. Such cloths can catch fire on a hot surface unit.

Do not store flammable materials near the cooktop.

Keep the hood and grease filters clean to maintain good venting and to avoid grease fires.

DO NOT STORE OR USE COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS, GASOLINE OR OTHER FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIQUIDS IN THE VICINITY OF THIS OR ANY OTHER APPLIANCE.

Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate on the cooktop.

Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely with a well- fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

Flaming grease outside a pan can be put out by covering it with baking soda or, if available, by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
