WARNING:
After a spill or boil over, turn off the burner and using caution due to possible hot surfaces, clean around the burner and burner ports. After cleaning, check for proper operation.
Be sure all rangetop controls are turned off and the rangetop is cool before using any type of aerosol cleaner on or around the rangetop. The chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to corrode.
DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilation air.

Service should only be done by authorized technicians. Technicians must disconnect the power supply before servicing this unit.
To avoid a fire hazard, grease accumulation must be prevented by frequently cleaning the ventilation hood and filters.
In case of fire or when intentionally “flaming” liquor or other spirits on the rangetop, follow manufacturer’s instructions. Use caution when cooking foods with high alcohol content (e.g. rum, brandy, bourbon). Alcohol evaporates at high temperatures. There is a risk of burning as the alcohol vapors may catch fire. Use only small quantities of alcohol in foods.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE:
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
The burning of gas cooking fuel can generate some by- products which are on the list. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by:
1.Providing good ventilation when cooking with gas.
2.Operating the unit according to the instructions in this manual.
DO NOT store or use corrosive chemicals, vapors, flammables, or nonfood products in or near this appliance. It is specifically designed for use when heating or cooking food. The use of corrosive chemicals while heating or cleaning will damage the appliance and could result in injury.
WARNING:
This appliance should not be installed with a ventilation system that directs air in a downward direction toward the range. This type of ventilation system may cause ignition and combustion problems with the appliance resulting in personal injury, property damage, or unintended operation. Ventilating systems that direct the air upwards do not have any restriction.
