en-us IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS Hot oil is capable of causing extreme burns and injury. ▶ Use high heat settings on the cooktop only when nec- essary. ▶ To avoid bubbling and splattering, heat oil slowly on no more than a low-medium setting. ▶ Never move a pan of hot oil, especially a deep fat fryer. Wait until it is cool. Spills of hot food may cause burns. ▶ Hold the handle of the pan when stirring or turning food. This helps prevent spills and movement of the pan. DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR UNITS. Surface units may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot enough to cause burns. ▶ During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing, potholders, or other flammable materials contact surface units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are the cooktop and areas facing the cooktop. Clean Cooktop With Caution. ▶ If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burn. ▶ Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. ▶ Do not clean the appliance while it is still hot. WARNING Storage in or on Appliance - The use of corrosive chemicals in heating or cleaning will damage the appliance and could result in injury. ▶ Flammable materials, corrosive chemicals, vapors or non-food products should not be stored or used in an oven or on or near surface units. ▶ The appliance is specifically designed for use when heating or cooking food. This appliance is intended for normal family household use only. ▶ It is not approved for outdoor use. ▶ See the Statement of Limited Product Warranty. If you have any questions, contact the manufacturer. WARNING - Using this appliance other than for its intended use can cause fire or injury to persons. ▶ Use this appliance only for its intended use as de- scribed in this manual. ▶ NEVER use your appliances as a space heater for warming or heating the room. Doing so may result in excessive heat radiation and can cause a fire. ▶ Never use the appliance for storage. WARNING - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING. ▶ SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. ▶ NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN - You may be burned. ▶ DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or tow- els - a violent steam explosion will result. ▶ Use an extinguisher ONLY if: - You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it. - The fire is small and contained in the area where it started. - The fire department is being called. - You can fight the fire with your back to an exit. Do not heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may cause the container to burst and cause injury. Liquid between the pot base and the cooktop may build up steam pressure. This may cause the pot to jump suddenly causing injury. ▶ Always keep the cooktop and bases of pots dry. When cooking with a double-boiler, the cooktop and cooking vessel may crack due to overheating. ▶ The cooking vessel in the double-boiler must not come in direct contact with the bottom of the pot filled with water. ▶ Use only heat-resistant cookware. Glazed Cooking Utensils - Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop or range-top service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. ▶ Use only pans that are appropriate for ceramic cook- tops. ▶ Cookware not approved for use with ceramic cooktops may break with sudden temperature changes. WARNING Moisture intrusion may cause an electric shock. ▶ Do not use any steam cleaners or high-pressure clean- ers to clean the appliance. 6
