IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)
•Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend Over Adjacent Surface Units. To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil.
•Never Leave Surface Units Unattended. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
•Protective Liners. Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the appliance. Only use aluminum foil as recommended for baking if used as a cover placed on the food. Any other use of protective liners or aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric shock or fire or short circuit.
•Glazed Cooking Utensils. Only certain types of glass, glass/ ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for range top service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer's recommendations for cooktop use.
•Do Not Use Decorative Surface Element Covers. If an element is accidentally turned on, the decorative cover will become hot and possibly melt. Burns will occur if the hot covers are touched. Damage may also be done to the appliance.
FOR COOKTOPS WITH COIL ELEMENTS ONLY
•Do Not Immerse or Soak Removable Surface Heating Elements. Surface heating elements should never be immerse in water. Heating elements clean themselves during normal operation.
•Make Sure Drip Pans or Drip Bowls Are in Place. Absence of these pans or bowls during cooking may subject wiring or components underneath to damage.
FOR CERAMIC-GLASS COOKTOP ONLY
•Do Not Clean or Operate a Broken Cooktop. If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.
•Clean Cooktop with Caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid a steam burn. Some cleaners can produce harmful fumes if applied to a hot surface.
