Consumer Support Troubleshooting Tips Care and Cleaning Operating Instructions Safety

Do not touch glass ceramic surface elements while cooking. This surface may be hot enough to burn even though it may appear dark in color. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact the cooking surface. Note the hot indicator lights and allow sufficient time for cooling first.

Hot surfaces may include both the cooktop and areas facing the cooktop.

To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage, the handle of a container should be turned toward the center of the cooktop without extending over any nearby surface elements.

Always turn off the surface element control before removing the cookware.

Never leave surface elements unattended at high heat settings. Boilovers may cause smoking and greasy spillovers may ignite.

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

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.

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

Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.

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

Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a deep-fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.

Do not store flammable materials near the cooktop.

Keep the hood and grease filters clean to maintain good venting and to avoid grease fires.

Do not store or use combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any appliance.

Clean only parts listed in this Owner’s Manual.

Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils or food on the cooktop when not in use.

Keep cooktop clean and free of accumulation of grease or spillovers which may ignite.

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.

Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.
