*Glazed Cooking Utensils--Only certain types of glass,

glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the

manufacturer's recommendations for cooktop use.

burner is accidentally turned on, the decorative cover will

become hot and possibly melt. You will not be able to see that the burner is on. Burns will occur if the hot covers are

touched. Damage may also be done to the cooktop or burners because the covers may cause overheating. Air will be blocked from the burner and cause combustion

problems.
