Location safety
WARNING
To reduce risk of fire, electric shock, personal injury, and death:
•Only install the rangetop indoors away from weather, water, wind, and strong drafts.
•Select a location where a grounded, 3-prong outlet is easily accessible.
•If the rangetop is near a window, do not hang long curtains or paper blinds that may
blow over/onto the rangetop.
•For the rangetop to ventilate properly, its vents must not be blocked, and that there is
enough clearance all around. The vents allow the necessary exhaust for the appliance
to operate properly with correct combustion.
•Ensure the wall coverings near the appliance can withstand heat up to 200 °F (93 °C).
•Avoid cabinet storage above the rangetop. If such storage is unavoidable, leave at
least 30 in. (76.2 cm) from cooking surface to cabinet bottom, or install a hood that
projects at least 5 in. (12.7 cm) beyond the cabinet bottom.

Rangetop safety
WARNING
To reduce risk of fire, electric shock, personal injury, and death:
•Ensure all burners are off when not in use.
•Do not use aluminium foil to line the grates or any part of the rangetop.
•Do not leave burners unattended on medium or high heat settings.
•Before igniting, ensure all burner caps are properly in place and all burners are level.
•Always use the LITE position to ignite the burners, then ensure the burners ignite. If
ignition fails, turn the knob to OFF, wait until the gas dissipates, then try again.
•When setting a burner to simmer, turn the knob slowly. Ensure the flame stays on.
•Place only cookware on the rangetop.
•Flame food only under an active ventilation hood.
•Turn off burners before removing cookware from the burners.
•Remove food and cookware immediately after cooking.
•Before disassembling a burner for cleaning, ensure all burners are off and the
rangetop is completely cool.
•After cleaning the burner spreader, ensure it is completely dry before re-assembling.
•When assembling a burner, ensure the spark mark on the dual burner spreader is be
the electrode.
•Do not pour water into the rangetop drip basin.
•Use cookware that is designed for rangetop cooking and is large enough to cover the
burner grates. Adjust burner flames so they remain under the cookware.
•To avoid cookware discoloration, deformity, and/or carbon monoxide poisoning, do
not use cookware that is substantially larger than the grate.
•Turn cookware handles away from surface burners and the rangetop front edge.
•Stand back from the range while frying.
•Heat frying oils slowly, and watch as they heat. If frying at high heat, closely watch
the cooking process. If combining fats or oils when frying, mix them before heating.

English 19
Important safety instructions
•Use a deep-fryer thermometer if possible to monitor the oil temperature.
•Use minimal oil when frying.
•Do not fry frozen food or partially thawed food that it clumped with ice.
•Before moving fat-/oil-filled cookware, make sure it has completely cooled.
•To prevent delayed eruptive boiling, let hot liquids stand at least 20 seconds after
turning off the burner so the liquid temperature can stabilize. In case of scalding:
1. Immerse the burn in cool water for at least 10 minutes.
2. Do not apply creams, oils, or lotions.
3. Cover with a clean, dry cloth.
•Center pots on the grates. Do not put a pot larger than 9” in diameter on a rear
burner. Oversized pots may impede airflow, making the flame sputter and burn
inefficiently.
•Do not wear loose or hanging clothing when using the rangetop.
•Never leave plastic on the rangetop. Vented hot air can melt or ignite plastic or
cause a buildup of dangerous pressure in closed plastic containers.
•Put only cookware on the rangetop.
•Thaw and pad food dry before frying. Moisture can cause oil to erupt and overflow.
•Always make sure the controls are OFF and the grates are cool before you remove
them to prevent any possibility of being burned.
•Keep combustible material away from the rangetop.
•Do not touch an active burner. Turn off the burners before moving the cookware.
•Stir sauces and other liquid food while warming.
