IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING
• Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat after the controls have been
turned off.
• Do not cook on a broken cooktop. If glass cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the
broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a quali ed technician immediately.
• Avoid scratching the glass cooktop. The cooktop can be scratched with items such as knives, sharp instruments,
rings or other jewelry, and rivets on clothing.
• Do not place or store items that can melt or catch re on the glass cooktop, even when it is not being used. If the
cooktop is inadvertently turned on, they may ignite. Heat from the cooktop or oven vent after it has been turned off
may also cause them to ignite.
• Use a ceramic cooktop cleaner and a
ceramic cooktop cleaning pad to clean the cooktop. Wait until the cooktop cools
and the indicator light goes out before cleaning. A wet sponge or cloth on a hot surface can cause steam burns. Some
cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. Note: Sugar spills are an exception. They should be
scraped off while still hot using an oven mitt and a scraper. See the Cleaning the glass cooktop section for detailed
instructions.
• Read and follow all instructions and warnings on the cleaning cream label.
RADIANT COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (Some models)
• Do not immerse or soak the removable surface cooking elements. Do not put them in a dishwasher. Do not self-clean
the surface cooking elements in the oven. Doing so may cause them to fail, resulting in a burn hazard or re hazard.
• To avoid the possibility of a burn or an electric shock, always be certain that the controls for all surface elements are
at the OFF position, and that all coils are cool before attempting to lift or remove a coil cooking element.
• Be sure the drip pans are not covered and are in place. Their absence during cooking could damage range parts and
wiring.
• Do not use aluminum foil to line drip pans. Foil can trap heat or melt, resulting in damage to the product and a shock
or re hazard.
