IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 7 Improper cookware may break due to sudden changes in temperature. Check the cookware manufacturer's recommendations for cooktop use. Use proper pan size - This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different sizes. Select cookware with flat bottoms that match the surface unit size. Using the proper cookware on the cooking area will improve efficiency. Never leave surface elements unattended. Boil-overs may cause smoking and greasy spills that may ignite. A pan that has boiled dry could be damaged and may damage the cooktop. When you are flaming foods under a ventilating hood, turn on the fan. Do not place metallic objects such as knives, forks, spoons, and lids on the cooktop surface since they can get hot. IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR GLASS AND CERAMIC COOKTOPS 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 glass with caution. If a wet sponge or 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. Avoid scratching the cooktop glass with sharp objects. IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR OVEN Protective liners-Do not use aluminum foil, aftermarket oven liners, or any other materials or devices to line oven bottom, oven racks, or any other part of the appliance. Only use aluminum as recommended for baking, such as lining cookware or as a cover placed on food. Any other use of protective liners or aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric shock or fire or a short circuit. Use care when opening oven door, lower oven door, or warmer drawer (some models). Stand to the side of the appliance when opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or replace food in the oven. Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. Touching surfaces in this area when the oven is on may cause severe burns. Do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near the oven vent. These items can melt or ignite. Placement of oven racks - Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact hot burner or element in oven. Use potholders and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Remove all cookware and utensils before moving the rack. Do not use a broiler pan without its insert. Broiler pans and inserts allow dripping fat to drain away from the high heat of the broiler. Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil; exposed fat and grease could ignite. Do not cook food on the oven bottom. Always cook in proper cookware and always use the oven racks.
