IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Correct usage

Do not operate the cooktop until it is properly installed in the

countertop.

This appliance is intended for residential cooking only.

Use the appliance only for its intended purpose. The

manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damages caused by improper use of the cooktop.

Take care that drafts do not blow flammable material toward the

flames or push the flames so that they extend beyond the edges of the pan.

Never use the cooktop to warm the room.

Install the cooktop in a room that has sufficient ventilation.

This appliance must not be operated outdoors.

Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the cooktop.

For proper lighting and performance of the burners, keep

the igniters clean and dry.

Make sure all components of the gas burners are assembled

correctly before using the cooktop.

Ensure that any burners in use are always covered with a pan.

Do not use pans with too large of a bottom diameter. Using larger pans

may cause the flames to spread out and damage the surrounding countertop or other countertop appliances.

For safety and stability, use the trivet for smaller pans.

Do not store aerosols, combustibles and/or any other

easily flammable materials underneath or adjacent to the cooktop.

Only certain types of glass/ceramic or other glazed cookware are

suitable for use on a cooktop without breaking due to a sudden temperature change.

Protection from damage

Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the appliance. Steam could

penetrate electrical components and cause a short circuit.

Spills containing salt or sugar should be removed immediately.

Do not drop anything on the ceramic surface of the appliance.

Although the ceramic glass is shock and scratch resistant, it is not shock or scratch proof.
