IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
~
Make certain that the power cords of
small appliances do not come in
contact with the appliance. The
insulation of the cable could become
damaged. Danger of electric shock!
~
Areas around the cooktop (the
cooktop frames or surrounding (in the
case of beveled cooktops) may
become hot due to the following
factors: operating time, high output
settings, large cook ware, and number
of burners in operation.
~
Be careful not to drop anything on
the ceramic surface of the cooktop.
Even lightweight objects may cause
damage.
~
Use the proper pan size. Select
cookware with flat bottoms large
enough to cover the heating element.
Using undersized cookware will expose
a portion of the heating element and
may result in ignition of clothing or
handles becoming hot. The proper size
pot or pan will also improve efficiency.
~
Do not use pots or pans with
pronounced edges or ridges on the
ceramic cooktop. These could scratch
the cooktop permanently. See
"Selecting cookware" for more
information. Grains of salt and sand can
cause scratches. Make sure that the
bases of any pots and pans are clean,
free of any fat or oils and are dry.

~
To prevent damage to the cooktop
do not use pots and pans with thin
bases on the cooktop. Never heat an
empty pan unless the pan manufacturer
states that you can do so.
~
Before using glass, glass/ceramic,
ceramic, earthenware or other glazed
cookware verify that they can be used
on a cooking surface.
~
Do not use plastic or aluminum foil
cookware. It melts at high
temperatures. Fire hazard.
~
To prevent burns and breathing
difficulty, allow the cooktop to cool
before cleaning. Some cleaners may
produce toxic fumes if applied to a hot
surface.
~
Keep the cooktop clean. Grains of
salt and sand can cause scratches.
~
When wiping spills on a hot cooktop
with a wet sponge or cloth, be careful
to avoid steam burns.
~
Do not let flammable materials,
i.e. cooking grease, accumulate on the
appliance.
~
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
this appliance. Steam could penetrate
electrical components and cause a
short circuit.
~
Do not allow either solid or liquid
sugar, pieces of plastic or foil to fall on
the burners when they are hot. If these
residues are allowed to cool on the
ceramic surface pitting or even
cracking may occur.
