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.
WARNING!
RADIANT SURFACE UNITS
■
Stand away from the range when opening
the oven door. Hot air or steam which
escapes can cause burns to hands, face
and/or eyes.
■
Do not heat unopened food containers.
Pressure could build up and the container
could burst, causing an injury.
■
Place the oven shelf in the desired position
while the oven is cool. If shelves must be
handled when hot, do not let pot holder
contact the heating elements.
■
Pulling out the shelf to the stop-lock is a
convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also
a precaution against burns from touching
hot surfaces of the door or
oven walls.
■
When using cooking or roasting bags in the
oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.
■
Keep the oven vent unobstructed.
■
Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
■
Do not use the oven to dry newspapers.
If overheated, they can catch on fire.
OVEN
■
Avoid scratching the glass cooktop. The
cooktop can be scratched with items such
as sharp instruments, rings or other
jewelry and rivets on clothing.
■
Do not operate the radiant surface units if
the glass is broken. Spillovers or cleaning
solution may penetrate a broken cooktop
and create a risk of electrical shock.
Contact a qualified technician
immediately should your glass cooktop
become broken.
■
Never use the glass cooktop surface as a
cutting board.
■
Do not place or store items that can melt
or catch fire on the glass cooktop, even
when it is not being used.
■
Be careful when placing spoons or other
stirring utensils on glass cooktop surface
when it is in use. They may become hot
and could cause burns.
■
Do not stand on the glass cooktop. The
weight may cause the top to break.
■
Avoid heating an empty pan. Doing so
may damage the cooktop and the pan.
■
Clean the cooktop with caution. If a wet
sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a
hot surface unit, be careful to avoid steam
burns. Some cleaners can produce
noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
NOTE:
We recommend that you avoid
wiping any surface unit areas until they
have cooled and the indicator light has
gone off. Sugar spills are the exception to
this. Please see
Cleaning the glass cooktop
section.
■
When the cooktop is cool, use only the
recommended cleaning cream to clean
the cooktop.
■
To avoid possible damage to the cooking
surface, do not apply cleaning cream to
the glass surface when it is hot.
■
After cleaning, use a dry cloth or paper
towel to remove all cleaning cream residue.
■
Read and follow all instructions and
warnings on the cleaning cream labels.
