Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically 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 appliance.

Caution: Do not store items of interest to children above the cooktop or at the back. If children should climb onto the appliance to reach these items, they could be seriously injured.

Do not store flammable materials 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 extinguisher.

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

Use only dry potholders; moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may cause burns from steam. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of potholders. Do not let potholders touch hot burners 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 obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Foil is an excellent heat insulator and heat will be trapped beneath it. This will upset the cooking performance and can damage the cooktop finish.

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

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

Match the pot size to the burner and flame size. The flame should be equal to or smaller than the pan bottom.

When using the cooktop: DO NOT TOUCH THE

BURNER GRATES OR THE IMMEDIATE SURROUNDING AREA. Areas adjacent to the burners may become hot enough to cause burns.

Never leave the burners unattended when using high flame settings. Boil overs cause smoking 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 2.

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

To minimize burns, ignition of flammable materials, and unintentional spillovers, position handles of utensils so that 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.

Only certain types of glass, heat-proofglass-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 medium flame settings according to 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 door. Do not attempt to use the cooktop until the gas has had time to dissipate. Wait at least 5 minutes before using the cooktop.

Clean the cooktop with caution. Avoid steam burns; do not use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the cooktop while it is hot. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

Turn the ventilator OFF in case of fire or when intentionally “flaming” liquor or other spirits on the

cooktop. The blower, if in operation, could unsafely spread the flames.

To achieve optimum cooking performance do not use warped pots and pans. For safety reasons do not use unbalanced pots and pans heavy handles or warped bottoms can cause pans to be unstable
