9. Do not soak or immerse removable heating elements in
water.
10. Do not operate with damaged cooking element after any
product malfunction until proper repair has been made.
11. Keep all switches "OFF" when unit is not in use.
12. CAUTION - Do not store items of interest to children in
cabinets above cooktop - children climbing on the cooktop to
reach items could be seriously injured.
13. Do not touch surface units or areas near units. Surface units
or heating elements 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 nottouch or let clothing
or other flammable materials contact these areas until they
have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces may become
hot enough to cause burns - among these surfaces is the
cooktop.
Additional Safety Precautions to Follow
When using Other Parts of Your Cooktop
1.Glazed cookware -only certain types of glass, glass-ceramic,
ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed cookware are suitable
for cooktop surface without breaking due to the sudden
change intemperature. Useonly such cookware as you know
has beenapproved for this purpose.
2. Cookware handles should be turned inward and not extend
overadjacent surface heating elements to avoid burns,
ignition of flammable materials and spillage due to uninten-
tional contact with the cookware.
3. Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings.
Boil over causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may
ignite.
