IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High 
Heat Settings – Boilover causes smoking and 
greasy spillovers that may ignite.
Glazed Cooking Utensils – Only certain types of 
glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or 
other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop 
service without breaking due to the sudden change 
in temperature.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not 
Extend Over Adjacent Surface Units – To reduce 
the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials,
and spillage due to unintentional contact with the 
utensil, the handle of a utensil should be positioned 
so that it is turned inward, and does not extend 
over adjacent surface units.
Do Not Cook on 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 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.
For units with ventilating hood –
Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently – Grease should 
not be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.
When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
