COOKTOP SAFETY

Do not wear loose or hanging garments when using the cooktop. They could ignite if they touch a hot surface unit and you could be burned.

Use only dry pot holders. Moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces could result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or bulky cloth for a pot holder. It could catch on fire.

Do not heat unopened containers. They could explode. The hot contents could cause burns and container particles could

cause injury.

Do not store flammable materials on or near the cooktop. The fumes could create an explosion and/or fire hazard.

When using the cooktop

Make sure the reflector bowls are in place during cooking. Cooking without reflector bowls could subject the wiring and components underneath them to damage.

Do not line reflector bowls or grill basin with aluminum foil or other liners. Improper installation of these liners could result in a risk of electrical shock or fire.

Do not cook on a broken cooktop. If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers could

penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electrical shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.

Select a pan with a flat bottom that is about the same size as the surface unit. If pan is smaller than the surface unit, some of the heating element will be ex- posed and could result in the igniting of clothing or pot holders. Correct pan size also improves cooking efficiency.

Check to be sure glass cooking utensils are safe for use on the cooktop. Only certain types of glass, glass-ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktops without breaking due to the sud- den change in temperature.

Never leave surface units un- attended at high heat settings.

A boilover could result and cause smoking and greasy spillovers that could ignite.

Turn pan handles inward, but not over other surface units. This will help reduce the chance of burns, igniting of flammable materials, and spills due to bumping of the pan.
