Hot Surface Hazard
Do not touch burners or areas near burners. Burners may be hot even though they are dark in color. Burners and areas near burners may become hot enough to cause burns. To avoid risk of burns and/or fire, keep loose clothing, potholders or any other flammable materials well clear of the burner flame. Do not touch or let clothing, potholders or other flammable materials contact burners or areas near burners until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these areas is the area within the circles around the burners, including the pan support pins.
Always use a dry potholder when removing cookware from the appliance. Do not use wet or damp potholders as these can cause steam burns. Do not use towels or similar cloths for removing cookware.
Do not leave children alone or unattended near the appliance. Never allow children to stand, sit or play near, on or with the appliance.
Be careful when reaching for items stored in cabinets over the appliance. Flammable materials could be ignited if brought in contact with flame or hot surfaces and may cause severe burns.
