9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
9 CAUTION
Items of interest to children should
not be stored in an appliance, in
cabinets above an appliance or on
the backsplash. Children climbing
on an appliance to reach items could
be seriously injured.

Cleaning Safety

Do not clean the appliance while it is still
hot. Some cleaners produce noxious
fumes when applied to a hot surface. Wet
clothes and sponges can cause burns
from steam.
Do not use steam cleaners to clean the
appliance.
Do not soak removable heating elements -
Heating elements should never be
immersed in water.

Cookware Safety

Hold the handle of the pan when stirring
or turning food. This helps prevent spills
and movement of the pan.
Use Proper Pan Size.
The use of undersized cookware will
expose a portion of the heating element
or burner to direct contact and may result
in ignition of clothing. Select cookware
having flat bottoms large enough to cover
the surface heating unit. This appliance is
equipped with one or more surface units
of different sizes. Proper relationship of
cookware to heating element or burner
will also improve efficiency.

Cookware not approved for use with
ceramic cooktops may break with sudden
temperature changes. Use only pans that
are appropriate for ceramic cooktops
(only certain types of glass, heatproof
glass, ceramic, earthenware, or other
glazed utensils are suitable).
Always position handles of utensils
inward so they do not extend over
adjacent work areas, burners, or the edge
of the cooktop. This reduces the risk of
fires, spills and burns.
