●If any burner should extinguish (after initially lighting or due to
accidental blow-out), turn all burner knobs off and wait five (5)
minutes before again attempting to light the burner.
●DO NOT store flammable materials on, in, or near the appliance. Any
fumes can create an explosion and/or fire hazard.
●Do not wear loose fitting clothing or long-hanging sleeved clothing
while using the appliance. If they contact the open flame of the
burner, they could ignite and cause severe burns.
●Use only dry potholders to remove hot utensils. Using damp
potholders on hot surfaces could result in burns to hands. Do not use
a towel or bulky cloth for a pot holder. The cloth could contact open
flame and catch fire.
●Never heat an unopened container. Pressure build-up within the
container can cause it to explode.
●Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick-up a flaming pan.
Smother a flaming pan with a lid or flat pan. Flaming grease outside
the pan can be extinguished with baking soda or a multipurpose dry
chemical fire extinguisher.
●This appliance is intended to be built-in to a cabinet structure only
and is not intended for attachment to the building structure.
●The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by
closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing
of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than
½ psi (3.5 kPa).
Cooktop Safety Warnings
●Do not place pans onto glass surface. Raise cover into full open
position before operating burners. Let cooktop cool before closing
glass cover.
●If the cooktop is near a window, proper precautions should be taken
to prevent curtains from blowing over burners creating a fire hazard.
●Keep the area around the cooktop clean and clear of any
combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable vapors and
liquids. Not doing so can cause an explosion and/or fire.
●Do not leave children alone or unsupervised in area where cooktop
is being used. The top burners, burner grates and other areas near
the burners become hot enough to cause severe burns.
●Keep the cooktop clean. The build-up of grease and food boil-over
and/or spillage can create a fire hazard.
●Turn pan handles inward or toward back of cooktop and out of
the way of people walking past cooktop and/or out of the reach of
children. Do not turn handles to where they are over the burners.
●Never leave top burner(s) unattended.
− For such reasons as down drafts that could be created by
opening and closing of cabinet doors or doors within the RV or
by positive or negative air pressures affecting burners due to
improper installation. (See Installation section) The burner could
extinguish resulting in gas escaping into the RV. Remember, gas
flow to each burner is controlled manually, you must turn gas
flow “ON” and “OFF”.
− A boil over could occur and the spill could ignite.
●Flame size
− Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of the utensil. A
higher flame simply wastes heat and energy.
− Correct flame size is determined by utensil size and material,
what you are cooking and whether or not you are cooking with
liquid.
●To prevent damage to the cooktop, top burners, or top grate, never
operate a top burner without a pan in place. The top burners,
especially the high input burner, should not be operated on high for
an extended period of time. The high setting should be used only
to start the food cooking or to bring liquids to a boil, then reduce
the flame to a lower setting to continue cooking. Use the low flame
setting to keep food warm. Remember, a gas range heats quicker
than an electric range, therefore, experiment with various settings
until you feel comfortable cooking with gas.
●Never use cookware which extends beyond one inch of the grate
(maximum pan size 10" diameter). Never place cooking utensil on
grate to where it rests over two operating top burners. This will
cause excessive heat buildup, which could result in damage to the
grate, top burner(s) and cooktop.
●Verify sufficient gas supply before attempting to light any top burner.
Air in the gas supply line will significantly delay burner ignition, and
a burner may light unexpectedly as the air in the line clears out and
is replaced by LP gas, this unexpected ignition may burn you. Air
may be introduced into the supply line when the vehicle gas bottle is
replaced, during servicing of other gas appliances, etc.
●DO NOT touch top burners, burner grates, or other areas near top
burners during and after use. Do not let clothing or other flammable
materials to contact top burners or areas near top burners until they
have had sufficient time to cool.
●Make sure the utensils you use are large enough to contain food and
avoid boil overs and spillovers. Heavy splattering or spillovers left on
the cooktop can ignite and burn you.
●Be sure that glass cooking utensils are safe for use on the cooktop.
Only certain kinds of glass utensils are suitable for surface or
top burner use without breaking due to the sudden changes in
temperature.
●Grease is flammable. Never allow grease to collect around top
burners or on cooktop surface. Wipe spillovers immediately.
●Use care when lighting a top burner by hand. If the burner lights
unexpectedly, or your hand is close to the burner, you may be
burned.
●DO NOT drop pans on the porcelain surface. Cracks or chips in the
porcelain surface may result.
●DO NOT leave an empty utensil, or one which has boiled dry, on a
hot top burner. The utensil could overheat and damage the utensil or
the cooking appliance.
