Section One: General Safety Instructions

PRECAUTIONS

For proper lighting and perform- ance of the burners, keep the ig- niters clean. It is necessary to clean these when there is a boil over, or when the burner does not light even though the electronic ignit- ers click. See page 22.

The cooktop is factory

assembled for natural gas. It should be correctly adjusted by a qualified service person or in- staller for the type of gas with which it is used. (See page 2 for propane gas.)

Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifi- cally recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where appliances are in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appli- ance.

CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to children above the cooktop or at the back. If chil- dren should climb onto the appli- ance to reach these items, they could be seriously injured.

Do not store flammable materi- als on or near the cooktop.

Do not use water on grease fires. Turn appliance off and smother fire with baking soda or use a dry chemical or foam-type extin- guisher.

Never let clothing, potholders, or other flammable materials come in contact with the burners or burner grates, until they are cool to the touch.

Use only dry potholders; moist or damp potholders on hot sur- faces may cause burns from steam. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of potholders. Do not let potholders touch hot burn- ers or burner grates.

For personal safety, wear proper apparel. Loose fitting garments or hanging sleeves should never be worn while cooking.

Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the cooktop. Improper use of a foil liner could result in a shock, fire hazard or it could ob- struct the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Foil is an excellent heat insulator and heat will be trapped beneath it. This will up- set the cooking performance and can damage the cooktop finish.

Warning: The appliance is for cooking. Based on safety consid- erations never use the cooktop to warm or heat a room. Also, such use can be damaging to the cooktop.

Do not heat unopened food con- tainers; a buildup of pressure may cause the container to burst.

When using the cooktop: DO

NOT TOUCH THE BURNER GRATES or THE IMMEDIATE SURROUNDING AREA. Areas adjacent to the burners may be- come hot enough to cause burns.

Never leave the burners unat- tended when using high flame settings. Boil overs cause smok- ing, and greasy spillovers that may ignite. More importantly, if the flame is smothered, unburned gas will be coming into the room. See “What to do if you smell Gas”, Page 1.

Always use utensils that have flat bottoms. Hold the handle of the pan to prevent movement of the utensil when stirring or turn- ing food.

To minimize burns, ignition of flammable materials and uninten- tional spillovers, position handles of utensils inward so they do not extend over adjacent work areas, burners, or the edge of the cooktop.

During cooking, set the burner control so that the flame heats only the bottom of the pan and does not extend beyond the edge of the pan.

Take care that drafts like those from fans or forced air vents do not blow flammable material to- ward the flamesor push the flames so that they extend beyond the edges of a pot.

Only certain types of glass, heat- proof glass-ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop use. This type of utensil may break with sudden temperature changes. Use only on low or me- dium flame settings according to the manufacturer’s directions.

If the cooktop is near a window,

be certain the curtains do not blow over or near the burners; they could catch on fire.

In the event a burner goes out and gas escapes, open a window or a door. Do not attempt to use the cooktop until the gas has had time to dissipate. Wait at least 5 min- utes before using the cooktop.
