of electric shock, or fire.
Glazed Cooking Utensils
• Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic,
earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for
range-top service without breaking due to the sudden
change in temperature.
Not Extend Over Adjacent Surface Units

materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with
the utensil, thehandle of a utensil should be positioned
so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over
adjacent surface units.
Do Not Soak Removable Heating Elements

spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create
a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician
immediately.
Clean Cook-Top 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.
