This cooktop has been design certified by American Gas Association (A.G.A.). As with any appliance using gas and generating heat, there are certain safety precautions you should follow. You will find them in the Use and Care Guide, read it carefully.

•Be sure your cooktop is installed and grounded properly by a qualified installer or service technician.

•This cooktop must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in their absence, with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70—latest edition in the United States, or in Canada, with the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1 Part 1.

•The burners can be lit manually during an electrical power outage. To light a burner, hold a lit match to the burner head, then slowly turn the Surface Control knob to LITE. Use caution when lighting burners manually.

•Do not store items of interest to children in the cabinets above the cooktop. Children could be seriously burned climbing on the cooktop to reach items.

•To eliminate the need to reach over the surface burners, cabinet storage space above the burners should be avoided.
