Important Safety Instructions

WARNING

• Do not allow pans to boil dry. Do turn on the cooktop

with empty cookware on the cooking zone. Doing so can

damage the pan and/or the cooktop.

• Do not use towels or bulky cloth as potholders.
• Always use potholders when removing cookware from the

cooktop. Use only dry potholders. Wet potholders can cause

steam burns.

• Use high heat setting only when necessary, and never when

not monitoring the utensil. Use low to medium settings to

heat oil slowly. Hold the handle of the utensil to prevent

movement when stirring or turning food.

• Wipe up all spills on the cooktop.
• Use only the types of cookware specified in this manual.

Personal injury or damage may result from the improper use

of cookware. Do not use utensils that do not attract and hold

a magnet and never use a steel plate or griddle to heat a

nonmagnetic utensil, which can cause INJURY or DAMAGE

to the cooktop elements and controls.

• Use utensils of the proper size, material and construction

for the particular type of cooking task. Utensils need to be

large enough to contain the desired quantity of food without

boil-overs or spill-overs. Choose pans with easy to hold

handles that will stay cool while cooking. Do not use utensils

with loose handles. Avoid using pans that are too heavy to

lift safely.

• UTENSIL HANDLES SHOULD BE TURNED INWARD AND

NOT EXTEND OVER ADJACENT SURFACE UNITS OR

COUNTERS. To reduce the risk of INJURY and spillage

due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of

the utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward,

and does not extend over adjacent surface units or counter

edges.

• To avoid accidental activation of the cooktop controls, do not

place any objects or fluids on or near the cooktop controls.

• Cook meat and poultry thoroughly. Cook meat to an

internal temperature of at least 160°F and poultry to an

internal temperature of at least 180°F. Cooking to these

temperatures usually avoids food-borne illness.

• When an oven that has a self-cleaning feature is installed

below the cooktop, it is not recommended that the induction

cooktop be used during the oven self clean process.

CAUTION

• Do not set cookware with sharp edges on the bottom

(such as support legs with sharp corners) on the cooktop.

Damage to the glass surface may occur.

• Do not allow acids (citrus juices, tomato sauces, etc.) to

remain on the cooktop surface. The porcelain finish may

stain. Remove any residue from the hot zone with a razor

scraper.

• Never use the cooktop surface as a cutting board.
• Do not try to remove heavy spills with a sharp object such

as a knife or metal spatula. Sharp objects may scratch the

cooktop’s surfaces.

• Do not slide cookware across the cooktop. Sliding may

damage the finish. Lift utensils to reposition them. Utensils

with rough surfaces should be avoided since they can

scratch the glass surface.

• Do not place large pots, griddles or grills across two

elements. Bridging across two elements will create stress

on the cooktop which can result in cracking.

• Non-stick coatings, when heated, can be harmful to birds.

Remove birds to a separate, well-ventilated room during

cooking.

• To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not place hot cookware

on a cold cooktop.
