IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Make certain that the power cords of small appliances do not come in contact with the appliance. The insulation of the cable could become damaged. Danger of electric shock!
Be careful not to drop anything on the ceramic surface of the combiset. Even lightweight objects may cause damage.
Use the proper pan size. Select cookware with flat bottoms large enough to cover the heating element. Using undersized cookware will expose a portion of the heating element and may result in ignition of clothing or handles becoming hot. The proper size pot or pan will also improve efficiency.
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.
Do not use pots or pans with pronounced edges or ridges on the ceramic combiset. These could scratch the combiset permanently. See "Selecting cookware" for more information. Grains of salt and sand can cause scratches. Make sure that the bases of any pots and pans are clean, free of any fat or oils and are dry.
To prevent damage to the combiset do not use pots and pans with thin bases on the combiset. Never heat an empty pan unless the pan manufacturer states that you can do so.
Before using glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware or other glazed cookware verify that they can be used on a cooking surface.
To prevent burns and breathing difficulty, allow the combiset to cool before cleaning. Some cleaners may produce toxic fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Keep the combiset clean. Salt,
sugar, and grit can cause scratches.
When wiping spills on a hot combiset 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.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean this appliance. Steam could penetrate electrical components and cause a short circuit.
Do not allow either solid or liquid sugar, pieces of plastic or foil to fall on the burners when they are hot. If these residues are allowed to cool on the ceramic surface pitting or even cracking may occur.
Any spills should be removed as quickly as possible to prevent them from burning on and becoming difficult to remove.
