IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

•Avoid placing any objects on or near the keypads in order to prevent accidental activation of the cooktop controls.

•To minimize the possibility of burns, always be certain that the controls for all surface units are at the off position and the entire glass surface is cool before attempting to clean the cooktop.

•Always keep wooden and plastic utensils and canned food a safe distance away from your cooktop. They may become hot and could cause burns.

•Do not place or store items on top of the glass cooktop surface when it is not in use.

•Always turn off the surface unit controls before removing the cookware.

•Glass and ceramic cookware is not recommended for use with your radiant ceramic glass cooktop.

•Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or medium-high heat settings.

•When preparing flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

•Spilled or burnt-on foods may cause accidental activation or deactivation of the keypad. Clean the keypad thoroughly and controls will resume normal operation.

•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.

•Use a deep-fat thermometer whenever possible to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point.

•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.

•If a combination of oils or fats will be used in frying, stir together before heating, or as fats melt slowly.

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