IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR COOKTOP
Use Proper Flame Size—Adjust flame size so
it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The use of
undersized utensils will expose a portion of the burner flame to
direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper
relationship of utensil to flame will also improve efficiency.
• Know which knob controls each surface burner/surface unit.
Place a pan of food on the burner before turning it on, and turn
the burner off before removing the pan.
• Always turn knob to the full LITE position when igniting top
burners. Visually check that burner has lit. Then adjust the flame
so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.
• Use proper pan size. This cooktop can be equipped with one
or more surface units of different sizes. Select utensils having
flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit. The use of
undersized utensils will expose a portion of the surface heating
unit to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper
relationship of utensil to the surface unit will also improve
efficiency.
• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend
Over Adjacent Surface Burners/Unit —To reduce the risk of
burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to
unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of the utensil
should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not
extend over adjacent surface burners.
• Never Leave Surface Burners/Unit Unattended at High Heat
Settings—Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that
may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
• Protective Liners—Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of
the cooktop, except as suggested in this manual. Improper
installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock, or
fire.
• Glazed Cooking Utensils—Only certain types of glass, glass/
ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are

recommendations for cooktop use.
• Do not use Searing Grill on the cooktop. The Searing Grill is not
designed for use on the cooktop. Doing so may result in a fire.
Do Not Use Stove Top Grills on Your Sealed Gas
Burners—If you use a stove top grill on a sealed gas burner, it will
cause incomplete combustion and can result in exposure to carbon
monoxide levels above allowable current standards. This can be
hazardous to your health.
Do Not Use Decorative Surface Burner/Unit Covers. If a burner/
unit is accidentally turned on, the decorative cover will become hot
and possibly melt. You will not be able to see that the burner/unit is
on. Burns will occur if the hot covers are touched. Damage may also
be done to the cooktop or burners/unit because the covers may
cause overheating. Air will blocked from the burner/unit and cause
combustion problems.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
GLASS COOKTOP
• Do Not Operate or Clean a Broken Cooktop Glass.—If glass top
should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the
broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a
qualified technician immediately.
• Clean Cooktop Glass with Caution.—If a wet sponge or cloth is
used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid a steam
burn. Some cleaners can produce harmful fumes if applied to a hot
surface.
• Avoid Scratching the Cooktop Glass with Sharp Objects.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
