INSTRUCTIONS

FOR USING

YOUR

COOKTOP
*

Know which knob controls each surface heating unit,
Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with one
or more surface units of different sizes. Select utensils
having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit.
Tile use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the
surface heating unit to direct contact and may result in
ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to tile
surface unit will also improve efficiency.

DO NOTTOUCH
SURFACE UNITS,AREAS NEAR THESE
UNITS,OVEN HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR
SURFACES OF THE OVEN OR WARMER DRAWER (if
equipped). Both surface and oven heating elements
may be hot even though they are dark in colon Areas
near surface units may become hot enough to cause
burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing
or other flammable materials touch these areas until they
have had sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are
the cooktop, surfaces facing the cooktop, the oven vent
openings and surfaces near these openings, oven door
and window.

Utensil handles should be turned inward and not
extend over adjacent surface units. To reduce the risk
of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due
to unintentional contact with tile utensil.
Never leave surface burners unattended at high heat
settings--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy accumulations that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may
melt.

appliance. Do not let clothing or other flammable
materials contact hot surfaces.

cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be
careful to avoid a steam burn. Some cleaners can produce
harmful fumes if applied to a hot surface.
