ř Important Safety Instructions READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS Cleaning Safety Condition of Unit Work Space / Environment Service and Repair Safety Flammable Materials 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). Hold the handle of the pan when stirring or turning food. This helps prevent spills and movement of the pan. Always position handles of utensils inward so they do not extend over adjacent work areas or the edge of the cooktop. This reduces the risk of fires, spills and burns. 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 cooktop. ř WARNING:ĄDo not cook on a broken cooktop. Cleaning solutions and spillovers may create a risk of electric shock. Switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box if the ceramic has fractures, flaws or cracks. Call an authorized servicer. If the display is not working while an element is heating up, switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box. Call an authorized servicer. If the cooktop switches itself off and can no longer be used, it may unexpectedly switch itself on later. In order to prevent this, switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box. Call an authorized servicer. Do not operate this appliance if it is not working properly, or if it has been damaged. Contact an authorized servicer. Always have a working smoke detector near the kitchen. Have an appropriate fire extinguisher available, nearby, highly visible and easily accessible near the appliance. Do not store or use corrosive chemicals, vapors, flammables or nonfood products on or in the near of the appliance. It is specifically designed for use when heating or cooking food. The use of corrosive chemicals in heating or cleaning will damage the appliance and could result in injury. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in this manual. Refer all servicing to a factory authorized service center. To avoid electrical shock hazard, before servicing the appliance, switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box. Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors, liquids or materials in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. If the cooktop is near a window, forced air vent or fan, be certain that flammable materials such as window coverings do not blow over or near the elements. They could catch on fire. 7
