(CONTINUED)
ELECTRICAL SUPPLY

current rating as shown in the model number listing on pg. 6. Have the installer show you where
EN
the electric circuit breaker is located so you know how to shut off the power to this appliance. It is
the responsibility of the user to have the appliance connected by a licensed electrician in accordance
with all local codes, or in the absence of local codes, in accordance with the National Electrical
Code. Read the ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS section of the Installation Manual for complete
details.
CHILD SAFETY
IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE PARENTS OR GUARDIANS TO ENSURE CHILDREN ARE
INSTRUCTED IN THE SAFE USE OF THIS APPLIANCE. Do not allow children to use this appliance
without adult supervision. Do not allow children to play in or around the appliance, even when not
in use. Items of interest to children should not be stored in or on the appliance, in cabinets above, or
on the backguard of the appliance. Children climbing on the appliance could be seriously injured.
BURN HAZARD - Cookware can get very hot during operation. Do not let children touch the
appliance while in operation. Failure to observe these instructions may result in severe burns or
injury.
TECHNICAL SAFETY
Installation and service on this appliance must be performed by a qualified appliance installer, or
a Hestan service technician. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically
instructed to do so. Defective parts must only be replaced with genuine Hestan parts. Contact
Hestan Customer Service for inquiries or to arrange a service call.
The appliance must be disconnected from the power during any service or maintenance work.
USER SAFETY
BURN HAZARD - Cookware can get very hot during operation.
Avoid wearing loose-fitting garments or long sleeves while cooking. They could ignite. For personal
safety, wear proper apparel while using the appliance. Some synthetic fabrics are highly flammable
and should not be worn while cooking.
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand, step on, lean against, or sit on any part of the appliance,
especially the oven door. This may result in damage to the appliance, or personal injury.
FIRE SAFETY
To reduce the risk of a grease fire, do not leave surface burners unattended at high settings.
Always turn on the ventilation hood when cooking. Clean vent hood grease filters frequently -
grease should not be allowed to accumulate on the fan or filters.
Use the appropriate pan size for the burner being used. For safety considerations, adjust the flame
size so they do not travel up the sides of the pan.
Keep the appliance zone clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable
vapors and liquids. NEVER store flammable liquids and materials in, above, or on the range, or near
cooking surfaces. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air of the appliance.
ALWAYS have a working smoke detector near the kitchen.
ALWAYS have an appropriate dry-chemical fire extinguisher nearby. Smother fire or flames using
the lid of the utensil (pot or pan), a cookie sheet or metal tray. Then shut off the burner. Use an
extinguisher, or baking soda if the fire is small and relatively contained. DO NOT USE WATER ON
A GREASE FIRE. Doing so may result in spreading the fire elsewhere.
NEVER pick up a flaming pan. You may spill the grease on yourself and be severely burned.
If accessible, turn off the ventilation hood during a fire, but do not reach through the flames to do
this.
In the event of personal clothing or hair catching fire, drop and roll immediately to smother the
flames. Seek medical attention if necessary.
