WARNING
When properly cared for, your new appliance has
been designed to be safe and reliable. Read all
instructions carefully before use. These
precautions will reduce the risk of burns, electric
shock, fire and injury to persons. When using
kitchen appliances, basic safety precautions must
be followed, including those in the following pages.
Gas Appliance Safety
Have the installer show you where the gas shut-off valve
is located.
If a burner goes out and gas escapes, open windows and
doors. Wait until gas dissipates before using the
appliance.
If you smell gas, your installer has not done a proper job
of checking for leaks. If the connections are not perfectly
tight, you can have a small leak and, therefore, a faint
smell. Finding a gas leak is not a "do-it-yourself"
procedure. Some leaks can only be found with the burner
control in the ON position and this must be done by a
qualified service technician.
SMELL GAS" on page 3.
During a power failure, only the cooktop burners can be
lit manually.
To prevent carbon monoxide build-up, do not block
appliance air vents.
For proper lighting and performance of burners, keep
igniters clean and dry.

Fire Safety

Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the cooktop.
Set the burner control so that the flame does not extend
beyond the bottom of the pan.
Use this appliance only for its intended use as described
in this manual. For example, never use the appliance for
warming or heating the room. Never use the appliance for
storage.
Do not allow aluminum foil, plastic, paper or cloth to
come in contact with a hot burner or grate. Do not allow
pans to boil dry.
If the cooktop is near a window, forced air vent, or fan, be
certain that flammable materials such as window
coverings do not blow over or near the burners or
elements. They could catch on fire.
Always have a working smoke detector near the kitchen.
Never leave the cooktop unattended when in use.
Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers may
ignite.
