READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Before you Begin

INSTALLER: Please leave this guide with this unit for the owner.

OWNER: Please retain this guide for future reference.

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, observe the following:

a)Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the manufacturer (800-735-4328).

b)Before servicing or cleaning the unit, switch power off at service panel and lock service panel. This will prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service panel cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag to the service panel.

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of a grease fire:

a)Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.

b)Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambéing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambe).

c)Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface element or gas burner.

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of injury to persons, in the event of a range top grease fire, observe the following:

•Smother flames with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or other metal tray, then turn off the gas burner or the electric element. Be careful to prevent burns. If the flames do not go out immediately, evacuate and call the fire department.

•Never pick up a flaming pan. You may be burned.

•Do not use water, including wet dish cloths or towels, to extinguish flames – a violent steam explosion will result.

•Use an extinguisher ONLY if:

a)You know you have a class ABC extinguisher and you already know how to operate it.

b)The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.

c)The fire department is being called.

d)You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

WARNING:

For general ventilating use only. To avoid a fire or explosion hazard, do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials or vapor.

Always have a working smoke detector near the kitchen.

Have an appropriate fire extinguisher available, nearby, highly visible and easily accessible near the cooking appliance.

Do not use water on grease fires. Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

In the event that personal clothing or hair catches fire, drop and roll immediately to extinguish flames.
