Important safety information
Cooktop safety
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, personal injuries, and/or death, obey the
following precautions.
• Always use the LITE position when igniting the burners and make sure the
burners have ignited. If ignition fails, turn the knob to OFF and wait until the gas
has dissipated.
• When you set a burner to simmer, do not turn the knob quickly. Make sure the
flame stays on.
• Do not place any objects other than cookware on the cooktop.
• This cooktop is designed to cook with a wok or wok ring attachment. If foods are
flamed, they should only be flamed under a ventilation hood that is on.
• Before removing or changing cookware, turn off the burners.
• Remove food and cookware immediately after cooking.
• Before removing any parts of the burner for cleaning, make sure the range is off
and completely cool.
• After cleaning the burner spreader, make sure it is completely dry before re-
assembling.
• Make sure the spark mark on the dual burner spreader is placed beside the
electrode when it is assembled.
• To avoid carbon monoxide poisoning, do not pour water into the cooktop well
while cleaning.
• Select cookware that is designed for top-range cooking. Use cookware that is
large enough to cover the burner grates. Adjust the burner flames so that the
flames do not extend beyond the bottom of the cookware.
• To avoid cookware discoloration, deformity, and/or carbon monoxide poisoning,
do not use cookware that is exceedingly larger than the grate.

• Make sure all burners are off when not in use.
• Do not use aluminium foil to line the grates or
any part of the cooktop.
• Do not leave burners unattended on medium or
high heat settings.
• Before igniting, make sure all burner caps are
properly in place and all burners are level.
• Make sure cookware handles are turned to the side or rear of the cooktop, but
not over other surface burners.
• Stand away from the range while frying.
• Always heat frying oils slowly, and watch as they heat. If you are frying foods at
high heat, carefully watch during the cooking process. If a combination of fats or
oils is to be used during frying, mix them together before heating.
• Use a deep-fryer thermometer whenever possible. This prevents overheating the
fryer beyond the smoking point.
• Use a minimum amount of oil when shallow pan-frying or deep-frying. Avoid
cooking unthawed food or food with excessive amounts of ice.
• Before moving cookware full of fats or oils, make sure it has completely cooled.
• To prevent delayed eruptive boiling, always allow heated liquids to stand at least
20 seconds after you have turned off the burner so that the temperature in the
liquid can stabilize. In the event of scalding, follow these first aid instructions:
1. Immerse the scaled area in cool or lukewarm water for at least 10 minutes.
2. Do not apply any creams, oils, or lotions.
3. Cover with a clean, dry cloth.
