READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
SAFETY DURING USE
• This appliance may only be used for normal
cooking and frying in the home. It is not
designed for commercial or industrial
purposes.
• Do not use the cooktop to heat the room.
• Take care when plugging in electric
appliances near the cooktop. Cords must not
come into contact with the hot surface. This
could cause damage to the cooktop and cable
insulation.
• Overheated fats and oils catch fire quickly.
You should supervise cooking when preparing
foods in fat or oil.
• After use, switch off the hob element by its
control and do not rely on the pan detector.
• Always keep the control panels clean and
dry. Do not let liquids or grease remain on the
cooktop controls area. Spilled or burnt-on
foods can activate or deactivate the appliance.
Clean the controls area thoroughly to resume
normal operation of the appliance.
• Never place combustible items on the
cooktop.
• Never keep any combustible items or
aerosol cans in a drawer located under the
cooktop.
• Avoid placing metal cooking utensils on the
cooking surface areas. Metal objects can
become hot and cause burns.
• Know which touch keypad controls each
surface of the cooking zones.
• Clean the appliance regularly to keep all
parts free of grease that could catch fire.
Exhaust fan ventilation hoods and grease
filters should be kept clean. Do not allow
grease to accumulate on hood or filter. Greasy
deposits in the fan could catch fire. Refer to
hood manufacturer's instructions for cleaning.
• Use Proper Pan Sizes. This appliance is
equipped with one or more surface units of
different size. Select utensils having flat
bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit
heating element. The use of undersized
utensils will expose a portion of the heating
element to direct contact and may result in
ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of
utensil to burner will also improve efficiency.
• If pan is smaller than element, a portion of
the element will be exposed to direct contact
and could ignite clothing or potholder.
• Do not place any object on or near the
control keypad area in order to prevent
accidental activation of the cooktop
controls.
• 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 the utensil, the
handle of a utensil should be positioned so that
it is turned inward, and does not extend over
adjacent surface units.
• Never leave prepared food on the Cooking
Zones. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has
boiled dry may melt or become damaged.
• Protective liners: Do not use aluminum foil
to line any part of the cooktop. Only use
aluminum foil as recommended after the
cooking process, if used as a cover to be
placed over the food. Any other use of
aluminum foil may result in the risk of electric
shock, fire or short circuit.
• Glazed cooking utensils: Only certain types
of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic,
earthenware, or other glazed utensils are
suitable for rangetop service without
breaking due to the sudden change in
temperature. Check the manufacturer's
recommendations for cooktop use.
• Ventilating hood: The ventilating hood
above your cooking surface should be
cleaned frequently, so the grease from
cooking vapors does not accumulate on the
hood or filter.
• Do not clean or operate a broken cooktop. If
cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and
spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop
and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a
qualified technician immediately.
• Clean cooktop with caution. Do not use
sponges or cloth to wipe spills on a hot cooking
area. Use a proper metal scraper.
