All surface burner controls should be turned OFF when you are not cooking. • Always turn the burners off before you go to sleep or go out. • If you smell gas, turn off the gas to the cooktop and call a qualified service technician. NEVER use an open flame to locate a leak. • If you turn the knob, but the surface burner does not ignite, turn off the control knob immediately. • Do not operate the burner for an extended period of time without cookware on the grate. The finish on the grate may chip without cookware to absorb the heat. • Be sure the burners and grates are cool before you place your hand, a pot holder, cleaning cloths or other materials on them.
