IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Personal safety

When in use, the appliance may become very hot and remain so for

a while after the cooktop has been turned off. There is a danger of burning until the residual heat indicators go out.

Use potholders when working with a hot appliance. Use only dry, heat

resistant potholders. Moist or damp potholders used on hot surfaces can result in steam burns.

Do not heat unopened food cans on the cooktop. Built-up pressure may cause the container to burst and

result in injury.

Do not place objects other than pots and pans on the cooktop. Be

especially careful not to place knives, forks or spoons etc, or other metallic items on the cokktop. If the cooktop is switched on, or if there is residual heat present, the metallic items can heat up and cause burning. Remember that metallic items can cause the burner to heat up unintentionally! Depending on material, other non-metallic items can melt or burn if placed on the cooktop. Switch the cooktop off after use.

Never cover the cooktop with a cloth or foil. Danger of fire!

Never leave the cooktop unattended when cooking with oil

or fat. Overheated fat or oil could ignite and set the venting hoods on fire. Always heat oil slowly, monitoring it as it heats. This is a fire hazard.

Do not use water on grease fires. Smother any fire or flame, or use a

dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

Do not flambé under an exhaust hood. Flames could be drawn up

into the hood by the suction or the grease filter may ignite.

Pot and pan handles should be turned inward and not extend over

the countertop to reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spills.

Be aware of loose fitting or hanging garments when operating the

cooktop, they may present a hazard.

When frying food make sure that the food is as dry as possible

before placing it in hot oil. Moisrture can cause oil to splatter and boil over. At high settings, be cautious of splattering grease or boiling over liquids which may produce smoke.

To prevent burns and breathing difficulty, allow the cooktop to cool

before cleaning. Some cleaners may produce toxic fumes if apllied to a hot surface.

When wiping spills on a hot cooktop with a wet sponge or

cloth, be careful to avoid steam burns.

Do not let flammable materials, i. e. cooking grease, accumulate on the

appliance.
