WARNING
Do not leave fats or oils to heat unattended on the cooktop. Spillovers can result
in a fire.
• The cooktop is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate
remote-control system.
• Turn cookware handles inward so they don't extend over adjacent surface units.
This reduces the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to
unintentional contact with the cookware.
• Immediately clean spills on the cooking area to prevent a tough cleaning chore later.
• Some cleaners can produce dangerous fumes if applied to a hot surface.
• Do not place metallic objects such as knives, forks, spoons, and lids on the cooktop
surface, because they can get hot.
• Always place the pan in the center of the surface unit you are cooking on. Never leave
surface units unattended at high heat settings. Proper contact of cookware to burner
also will improve efficiency. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spills that may catch on
fire.
• Clean cooktop with caution. Do not use sponges or cloth to wipe spills on a hot cooking
area. Use a proper metal scraper. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot
cooking area, it can cause steam burns. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if
applied to a hot surface.
• Do not turn surface units on before placing cookware.
• Do not store heavy items above the cooktop surface that could fall and damage it.
• Do not place aluminum foil or plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon
holders, or plastic wrappings or any other material on the range when it is in use.
• Do not use a steel-wool pad or scrub pad or abrasive cleaning pads. They can scratch the
surface.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
• Multiple-rack cooking saves time and energy. Whenever possible, cook foods requiring the
same cooking temperature together in one oven.
• For optimal performance and energy savings, follow the guides on page 36 for proper rack
and pan placements.
• Match the size of the cookware to the amount of food being cooked to save energy when
heating. Heating ½ quart of water requires more energy in a 3-quart pot than in a 1-quart
pot.
• Use cookware with flat bottoms to provide the best contact with the cooktop surface when
cooking on the glass-ceramic cooktop.
• Match the size of the cooktop burner or element to the size of the cookware in use. Using
a large element for a small pan wastes heating energy, and the exposed surface of the
element is a burn or fire hazard.
• Reduce energy use by cleaning light oven soils with the EasyClean
self-clean.
• Avoid opening the oven door more than necessary during use. This helps the oven
maintain temperature, prevents unnecessary heat loss, and saves on energy use.
