CAUTION

UTION

Do not store items of interest to children in the cabinets above the appliance. Children climbing on the

cooktop to reach items could be seriously injured.

• Do not leave children alone. Children should not be left alone or unattended in the

area where an appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any

part of the appliance.

• DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR THESE UNITS. Surface units may

be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot enough

to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials

touch these areas until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are the

cooktop and areas facing the cooktop.

• Wear Proper Apparel. Loose-fitting or hanging garments should never be worn while

using the appliance. Do not let clothing or other flammable materials contact hot surfaces.

WARNING

Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.

• Do Not Use Water or Flour on Grease Fires. Smother the fire with a pan lid, or use

baking soda, a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

• When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or grease may catch fire if allowed to

become too hot.

• Use Only Dry Pot holders. Moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in

burns from steam. Do not let the pot holders touch hot surface units. Do not use a towel or

other bulky cloth instead of a pot holder.

• Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers. Buildup of pressure may cause the container

to burst and result in injury.

IMPORTANT. Do not attempt to operate the cooktop during a power failure. If the power

fails, always turn off the cooktop. If the cooktop is not turned off and the power resumes, the

cooktop will not operate and an error message will be displayed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR COOKTOP

• Know which touch key pads controls each surface unit.

• Clean the appliance regularly to keep all parts free of grease that could catch fire.

Exhaust fan ventilation hoods and grease filters should be kept clean. Do not allow grease to

accumulate on hood or filter. Greasy deposits in the fan could catch fire. When flaming food

under the hood, turn fan on. Refer to hood manufacturer's instructions for cleaning.

• Use Proper Pan Size. This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different

sizes. Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit. The use of

undersized utensils will expose a portion of the surface heating unit to direct contact and may

result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to element will also improve

efficiency.
