before you turn it on. To prevent dam-
age to range, never operate surface
unit without a pan in place.
• NEVER use the cooktop as a storage
area for food or cookware.
DURING COOKING
• Be sure you know which knob controls
which surface unit. Make sure you
turned on the correct surface unit.

cooking. Use potholders to protect
