GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

■ Use this cooktop only for its intended purpose as
described in this Owner's Manual.
■ Be sure your cooktop is properly installed and
grounded by a qualified installer in accordance with
the provided installation instructions.
■ 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 performed by
a qualified technician.
■ Before performing any service, unplug the cooktop
or disconnect the power supply at the household
distribution panel by removing the fuse or switching
off the circuit breaker.
■ Do not leave children alone—children should not
be left alone or unattended in an area where the
cooktop is in use. They should never be allowed to
climb, sit or stand on any part of the cooktop.
CAUTION
■ Do not store items of interest to
children above the cooktop—children climbing on the
cooktop to reach items could be seriously injured.
KEEP FLAMMABLE MATERIALS AWAY FROM THE COOKTOP
WARNING
Failure to do so may result in fire or personal injury.
■ Do not store or use flammable materials near
the cooktop, including paper, plastic, pot holders,
linens, wall coverings, curtains, drapes and gasoline
or other flammable vapors and liquids.
■ Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while
using the cooktop. These garments may ignite if
they contact hot surfaces causing severe burns.

■ 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
units or heating elements. Do not use a towel or
other bulky cloth in place of pot holders.
■ Never use your cooktop for warming or heating the
room.
■ Do not touch surface elements. These surfaces
may be hot enough to burn even though they are
dark in color. During and after use, do not touch,
or let clothing or other flammable materials contact
the surface elements or areas nearby the surface
elements; allow sufficient time for cooling first.
■ Potentially hot surfaces include the cooktop and
areas facing the cooktop.
■ Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure
could build up and the container could burst,
causing an injury.
■ 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.
■ Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumulate in or near the cooktop.
Grease on the cooktop may ignite.
