SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Safety Instructions

■For your safety, never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.

■Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely with well fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

■Flaming grease outside a pan can be put out by covering with baking soda or, if available, by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

■When preparing flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

■Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate on the cooktop.

■Do not touch 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 the surface units; allow sufficient time for cooling first.

■Potentially hot surfaces include 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 units.

■Always turn the surface unit control to off before removing the cookware.

■To avoid the possibility of a burn or electric shock, always be certain that the controls for all surface units are at off position and all coils are cool before attempting to lift or remove the unit.

■Do not immerse or soak removable surface units. Do not put them in a dishwasher.

■Use proper pan size—Select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element. 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 burner will also improve efficiency.

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

■Be sure the drip pans are not covered and are in place. Their absence during cooking could damage cooktop parts and wiring.

■Do not use aluminum foil to line the drip pans. Misuse could result in a shock, fire hazard or damage to the cooktop.
