IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)
• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend
Over Adjacent Surface Burners--To reduce the risk of burns,
ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to
unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of the utensil
should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not
extend over adjacent surface burners.
• Never Leave Surface Burners Unattended at High Heat
Settings--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that
may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
• Protective Liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line surface
burner pans. Protective liners or aluminum foil may interfere with
heat and air distribution, and combustion. Damage to the
cooktop or personal injury may result.
• Glazed Cooking Utensils--Only certain types of glass, glass/
ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are
suitable for cooktop service without breaking due to the sudden
change in temperature. Check the manufacturer's
recommendations for cooktop use.
• Do Not Use Decorative Surface Burner Covers. If a burner is
accidentally turned on, the decorative cover will become hot and
possibly melt. You will not be able to seethat the burner ison. Burns
will occur if the hot covers are touched. Damage may also be done
to the cooktop or burners because the covers may cause
overheating. Air will be blocked from the burner and cause
combustion problems.
GLASS COOKTOPS (somemodels):
• Do Not Operate or Clean a Broken Cooktop Glass--If glasstop
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 Glass with Caution--If a wet sponge or cloth is
usedto wipe spillson a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid a steam
burn. Some cleaners can produce harmful fumes if applied to a hot
surface.
• Do Not Place Hot Cookware on the Cooktop Glass. This could
cause glass to break.
• Avoid scratching the cooktop glass with sharp objects.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances
known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential
exposure to such substances.
