• Do not leave children alone. Never leave children alone or
unattended in an area where this appliance is in use. They
should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the
appliance.
• Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.
• Do not use water on grease res. Turn off the cooktop to
avoid spreading the ames. Smother the re or ames or
use a dry chemical, baking soda, or foam-type extinguisher.
• Storage in or on the appliance. Do not store ammable
materials near the surface units. Be sure all packing
materials are removed from the appliance before operating
it. Keep plastics, clothes, and paper away from parts of the
appliance that may become hot.
• Wear proper apparel. Never wear loose-tting or hanging
garments while using the appliance.
• Use only dry potholders. Placing moist or damp potholders
on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not
let the potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a
towel or other bulky cloth.
• Teach children not to play with the controls or any other
part of the cooktop.
• Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded

SURFACE COOKING UNITS
• Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings.
Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may
ignite.
• Protective Liners – Do not use aluminum foil to line surface
unit drip bowls or oven bottoms, except as suggested in the
manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in a
risk of electric shock or re.
• Do not lift the cooktop. Lifting the cooktop can damage the
cooktop and cause the cooktop to malfunction.
• Never use the glass cooktop surface as a cutting board.
• Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass surface of
the cooktop will retain heat after the controls have been
turned off.
• Use proper pan sizes. This appliance is equipped with
surface units of different size. Select pots and pans that
have at bottoms large enough to cover the surface area of
the heating element. Using undersized cookware will expose
a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may
result in the ignition of clothing. Matching the size of the
pot or pan to the burner will also improve efciency.
• Cookware Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not
Extend Over Adjacent Surface Units – To reduce the risk
of burns, ignition of ammable materials, or spillage due
to unintentional contact with cookware, position cookware
handles so that they are turned inward and do not extend
over adjacent surface units.
• Glazed cookware. Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic,
ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed cookware can be
used for rangetop service without breaking due to sudden
changes in temperature.
• Always turn the surface units off before removing cookware.
• Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or medium high
heat settings.
• To avoid oil spillover and re, use a minimum amount of oil
when shallow pan-frying and avoid cooking frozen foods
that have excessive amounts of ice.
• Do not operate the cooktop without cookware. If the
cooktop operates without cookware, the control knobs will
become hot.
• Do not move the container and bowl in a horizontal position
on cooktop surface.

Important safety instructions
• Be careful when placing spoons or other stirring utensils
on the glass cooktop surface when it is in use. They may
become hot and could cause burns.
• Cleaning. Read and follow all instructions and warnings on
the cleaning cream labels.
• Be sure you know which control knob operates each surface

• When preparing aming foods under the hood, turn the fan
on.
• Do not store heavy items above the cooktop surface that
could fall and damage it.
• Do not Use Decorative Surface Element Covers – If an
element is accidentally turned on, the decorative cover
will become hot and possibly melt. Burns will occur if the
hot covers are touched. Damage may also be done to the
cooktop.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Use factory installed exible cord to connect to power supply only,
do not use power supply cord kit.
• The cooktop should be serviced only by qualied service
personnel. Repairs carried out by unqualied individuals
may cause injury or a serious malfunction. If your appliance
is in need of repair, contact a Samsung authorized service
center. Failure to follow these instructions may result in
damage and void the warranty.
• Flush - mounted appliances may be operated only after
they have been installed in cabinets and workplaces that
conform to the relevant standards. This ensures that the
appliances are installed in compliance with the appropriate
safety standards.
• If your appliance malfunctions or if fractures, cracks, or
splits appear:
- switch off all cooking zones
- unplug the cooktop from the AC wall outlet
- contact your local Samsung service center.
WARNING
If the surface is cracked, switch off and unplug the appliance to
avoid the possibility of electrical shock. Do not use your cooktop
until the glass surface has been replaced.

CHILD SAFETY
WARNING
• This appliance is not intended for use by young children or
inrm persons without the adequate supervision of a responsible
adult.
• Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance.
• The cooking zones will become hot when you cook. To keep
small children from being burned, always keep them away from
the appliance while you are cooking.
WARNING
Accessible parts may become hot during use. To avoid burns, young
children should be kept away.
VENTILATING HOOD
• Clean ventilating hoods frequently. Do not let grease
accumulate on the hood or lter.
• When aming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
GLASS/CERAMIC COOKING SURFACES
• DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR UNITS.
Surface units 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 not touch, or let
clothing or other ammable materials contact the surface
units or areas near the units until they have had sufcient
time to cool. Among these areas are the cook-top and the
facing of the cooktop.
• Do not cook on a broken cooktop. If the cooktop should
break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the
broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. If your
cooktop breaks, contact an authorized Samsung service
center immediately.
Clean the cooktop with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used
to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam
burns. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a
hot surface.
