READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!
For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire or
explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including
the following:
s
Use this appliance only for its intended use as
described in this manual.
s
Do not attempt to repair or replace any
part of your cooktop unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other
servicing should be referred to a qualified
technician.
s
Before performing any service, disconnect
the cooktop power supply at the household
distribution panel by removing the fuse or
switching off the circuit breaker.
s
Be sure your appliance is properly installed
and grounded by a qualified technician in
accordance with the provided installation
instructions. This appliance must be supplied
with the proper voltage and frequency, and
connected to an individual, properly grounded
branch circuit, protected by a circuit breaker
or fuse acceptable for the indicated wattage
on the name plate.
s
Have the installer show you the location
of the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy
reference.
s
Do not leave children alone—children
should not be left alone or unattended in an
area where an appliance is in use. They should
never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of
the appliance.
s
Teach children not to play with the controls or
any other part of the cooktop.
s
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang on
the cooktop.
COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY...
Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry
to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against
foodborne illness.

CAUTION:
s
Items of interest to children
should not be stored in cabinets above a
cooktop—children climbing on the cooktop
to reach items could be seriously injured.
s
Always keep combustible wall coverings,
curtains or drapes a safe distance from
your cooktop.
s
Always keep dish towels, dishcloths, pot holders
and other linens a safe distance away from your
cooktop.
s
Always keep wooden and plastic utensils and
canned food a safe distance away from your
cooktop. They may become hot and could
cause burns.
s
Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments
while using the appliance. Flammable material
could be ignited if brought in contact with hot
surface elements and may cause severe burns.
s
Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot
holders on hot surfaces may result in burns
from steam. Do not let pot holders touch hot
surface elements. Do not use a towel or other
bulky cloth. Such cloths can catch fire on a
hot surface element.
s
Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up
a flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother
a flaming pan on a surface element by covering
the pan completely with a well-fitting lid, cookie
sheet or flat tray. Use a multi-purpose dry
chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
s
Flaming grease outside a pan can be put out
by covering with baking soda or, if available,
using a multi-purpose dry chemical or
foam-type fire extinguisher.
s
When preparing flaming foods under the hood,
turn the fan on.
