When using the cooktor,

l Make sure the utensils you use are large enough to contain food and avoid boilovers and spillovers. Heavy splatter- ing or spillovers left on a cooktop could ignite and bum you. Pan size is espe- cially important in deep fat frying.

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

l Never leave surface burners unat- tended at high heat settings. A boilover could result and cause smoking and greasy @lovers that could ignite.

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

l Do not use decorative covers or trivets over the surface burners.

Grease

l Grease is flammable. Do not allow grease to collect around cook-top. Wipe spillovers immediately.

l Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Smother flaming pan by covering with a well- fitted lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Flaming grease outside of pan can be extinguished with baking soda or, if available, a multipurpose dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

Care and cleaning

lDo not repair or replace any part of the cooktop unless specifically recom- mended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

l Any additions, changes or conversions required in order for this appliance to satisfactorily meet the application needs must be made by an authorized Whirlpoole service technician or Qualified Agency.

l Disconnect the electrical supply

and the gas supply at the shutoff valve near the cooktop before servicing the cooktop.
