SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• 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 fire.
• 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 cook-top 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.
• Do not place metallic objects such as knives, forks, spoons and lids on the
cooktop surface since they can get hot.
• 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 flammable materials contact surface units or areas near units
until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are (identification
of areas – for example, the cook-top and surfaces facing the cook-top).
