Troubleshooting Tips Care and Cleaning Operating Instructions Safety
■Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, earthenware or other glazed containers are suitable for cooktop cooking; others may break because of the sudden change in temperature.
■Never clean the cooktop surface when it is hot. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes and wet cloths could cause steam burns if used on a hot surface.
■Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or medium high heat settings.
■Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan.
■Use little fat for effective shallow or deep- fat frying. Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spillovers when food is added.
■If a combination of oils or fats will be used in frying, stir together before heating, or as fats melt slowly.
■Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
■Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point.
■Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.
■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 appliance.
■Clean only parts listed in this Owner’s Manual.
■Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils or food on the cooktop when not in use.
■Keep cooktop clean and free of accumulation of grease or spillovers which may ignite.
■Never heat unopened food containers. Pressure buildup may make container burst and cause injury.
■Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings on or near your cooktop.
