ceramic cooktops (only certain types of glass,
heatproof glass, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed
utensils are suitable). See Cookware Selection Guide

• Always position handles of utensils inward so they do

edge of the cooktop. This reduces the risk of fires,
spills and burns.
• CAUTION: Plastic containers or plastic wrap can melt if
in direct contact with the drawer or a hot utensil. If it
melts onto the drawer, it may not be removable.
