IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Please read and adhere to the instructions in this manual to reduce the
potential risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury.
PROPER INSTALLATION - Be sure your cooktop is properly installed and ground-
ed by a qualified technician. Never use your cooktop for warming or heating.
DO NOT LEAVE CHILDREN ALONE - Children should not be left alone or unat-
tended in the area where appliance is in use. Do not allow children to sit or stand on
any part of the cooktop.
WEAR PROPER APPAREL - Loose fitting or hanging garments should never be
worn while using this cooktop.
USER SERVICE - Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifi-
cally recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a quali-
fied technician.
STORAGE ON APPLIANCE - Flammable materials should not be stored near sur-
face units.
DO NOT USE WATER ON GREASE FIRES - Smother fire or flame or use dry
chemical or foam type extinguishers.
USE ONLY DRY POT HOLDERS - Moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may
result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holders touch hot heating elements. Do not
use a towel or other bulky cloth.
USE PROPER PAN SIZE - This appliance is equipped with one or more surface
units of different size. Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the
surface unit heating element. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of
the heating element to direct contact and may result in the ignition of clothing. Proper
relation of utensil to burner will also improve efficiency.
NEVER LEAVE SURFACE UNITS UNATTENDED AT HIGH HEAT SETTING
- Boil over causes smoking and greasy spillovers may ignite.
GLAZED COOKING UTENSILS - Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic,
ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for range-top service with-
out breaking due to sudden change in temperature.
CARE & MAINTENANCE
Clean up spills immediately after they occur. For baked on spills, or melted material, a
hard plastic blade held at a 30∞angle can be used. Do not let melted objects or heavy
stains sit on the glass, for this may stain the top. Do not clean the surface when it is
hot. Avoid the use of abrasive cleaners as they can scratch the glass, vinegar and water
solution can be used for light stains.
Always read the manufacturers recommendations before using a cleaning product on
the ceramic glass.

UTENSIL HANDLES SHOULD BE TURNED INWARD AND NOT
EXTENDED OVER ADJACENT SURFACE UNITS - To reduce the risk of burns,
ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the
utensil, the handle of the utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and
does not extend over adjacent surface units.
DO NOT COOK ON BROKEN GLASS - If cooktop should break, cleaning solution
and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock.
Contact a qualified technician immediately.
CLEAN COOKTOP WITH CAUTION - If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe
spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burn. Some cleaners can pro-
duce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above a range or on
the back guard of a range - children climbing on the range to reach the items could be
seriously injured.
DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE - Heating elements may be hot even though they are
dark in color. Areas near the surface may become hot enough to cause burns. During
and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact the
surface or area around the unit until they have had sufficient time to cool.
