 WARNING

WARNING

– NEVER

 use this appliance as a space 

heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result 

in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the 

appliance.

 WARNING

WARNING – NEVER 

cover any slots, holes or passages 

on the cooktop and cooktop chassis. Doing so blocks 

air flow through the cooktop and may cause carbon 

monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap 

heat, causing a fire hazard. Keep all slots, holes and 

passages clear of grease and grime.
