USING YOUR COMPONENT COOKTOP

After cleaning, use a dry cloth or paper towel to remove all Cooktop Cleaning Cream residue.

Read and follow all instruction and warnings on Cooktop Cleaning Cream labels.

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 cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

When the cooktop is cool, use only Cooktop Cleaning Cream brand cleaner to clean the cooktop.

Do not use a wok on the gas burners if the wok has a round metal ring which is placed over the burner grate to support the wok. This ring acts as a heat trap that may damage the burner grate and burner head. Also, it may cause the burner to work improperly. This may cause a carbon monoxide level above that allowed by current standards, resulting in a health hazard.

If you smell gas, turn off the gas to the cooktop at the gas cutoff valve and call a qualified service technician. Never use an open flame to locate a leak.

Do not operate the gas burners without all burner parts and grate in place.

Let the gas burner grate and other surfaces cool before touching them.

Do not leave grates removed from any component where children can reach them.

Never leave gas burners unattended at high flame settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.

For your safety, never use your gas burners for warming or heating the room. Prolonged use of the cooktop in this way can be hazardous.

Do not clean the cooktop system with flammable or volatile cleaning fluids. See the Care and Cleaning section.

Do not clean any part of the cooktop system when the appliance is in use.

If you are using an overhead exhaust hood, keep its grease filters clean to maintain good venting and to avoid grease fires.

Clean only parts listed in this Use and Care Guide.

Clean the cooktop with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooktop, be careful to avoid steam burns.
