IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Hot oil is capable of causing extreme burns and injury.
Use high heat settings on the cooktop only when nec-
▶
essary.
▶ To avoid bubbling and splattering, heat oil slowly on no
more than a low-medium setting.
▶ Never move a pan of hot oil, especially a deep fat fryer.
Wait until it is cool.
Spills of hot food may cause burns.
Hold the handle of the pan when stirring or turning food.
▶
This helps prevent spills and movement of the pan.
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,
potholders, or other flammable materials contact sur-
face units or areas near units until they have had suffi-
cient time to cool. Among these areas are the cooktop
and areas facing the cooktop.
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 clean the appliance while it is still hot.

Do not heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-up
of pressure may cause the container to burst and cause
injury.
Liquid between the pot base and the cooktop may build up
steam pressure. This may cause the pot to jump suddenly
causing injury.
Always keep the cooktop and bases of pots dry.
▶
When cooking with a double-boiler, the cooktop and cook-
ing vessel may crack due to overheating.
▶ The cooking vessel in the double-boiler must not come
in direct contact with the bottom of the pot filled with
water.
Use only heat-resistant cookware.
▶
Glazed Cooking Utensils - Only certain types of glass,
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed
utensils are suitable for cooktop or range-top service with-
out breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.

▶
