Use only dry potholders — Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from
steam. Do not let potholder 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 ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to burner will also improve efficiency.
Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings – Boilover causes smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite.
Utensil handles should be turned inward and not extend 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 a utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not
extend over adjacent surface units.
Do not cook on broken cooktop — If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions 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 produce noxious fumes if applied to a
hot surface.
