SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

•Clean the cooktop with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface unit, be careful to avoid steam burns. Some cleansers can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

NOTE: We recommend that you avoid wiping any surface unit areas until they have cooled and the indicator light has gone off. Sugar spills are the exception to this. Please see the Glass Cooktop Cleaning section.

When the cooktop is cool, use only the recommended cleaning cream to clean the cooktop.

•Do not operate the surface units if the glass is broken. Spillovers or cleaning solution may penetrate a broken cooktop and create a risk of electrical shock. Contact a qualified technician if your glass cooktop breaks.

•Do not touch the surface units. These surfaces may be hot enough to burn even though they are dark in color. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact, the surface units or areas nearby surface units; allow sufficient time for cooling first.

Potentially hot surfaces include the cooktop and areas facing the cooktop.

•Never leave the surface units unattended at high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.

•Use proper pan size—select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit’s heating area. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the surface unit to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface unit will also improve efficiency. See the Cookware Tips section of this guide.

•When cooking pork, follow the directions exactly and always cook the meat to an internal temperature of at least 170°F. This assures that, in the remote possibility that trichina may be present in the meat, it will be killed and the meat will be safe to eat.

•Only certain types of glass, glass-ceramic, earthenware or other glazed containers are suitable for cooktop cooking; others may break because of the sudden change in temperature.

•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 nearby surface units.

•Always keep combustible wall coverings, curtains or drapes a safe distance away from your cooktop.

•Always keep dish towels, dish cloths, pot holders and other linens a safe distance away from your cooktop.

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

•Avoid scratching the glass cooktop. The cooktop can be scratched with items such as sharp instruments, rings or other jewelry and rivets on clothing.

•Never use the glass cooktop surface as a cutting board.

•Do not place or store items on top of the glass cooktop surface when it is not in use.

•Be careful when placing spoons or other stirring utensils on glass cooktop surface when it is in use. They may become hot and could cause burns.

•Avoid heating an empty pan. Doing so may damage the cooktop and the pan.

•Do not allow water, other liquids or grease to remain on the cooktop or control panel.

•Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.

•Clean only parts listed in this guide.

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