•DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE BURNERS/
UNIT, GRATES OR AREAS NEAR THESE
BURNERS/UNIT. Surface burners/unit may be
hot even though flames are not visible/unit is
dark in color. Areas near surface burners/unit
may become hot enough to cause burns. During
and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or
other flammable materials touch these areas
until they have had sufficient time to cool.Among
these areas are the cooktop and surfaces facing
the cooktop.
• Wear Proper Apparel=Loose-fitting or
hanging garments should never be worn

Know which knob controls each surface
burner.Always turn the knob to the LITE position
when igniting the burners. Visually checkthat the
burner has lit. Then adjust the flame so it does
not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.
Clean the appliance regularly to keep all
parts free of grease that could catch fire.
Exhaust fan ventilation hoods and grease filters
should be kept clean. Do not allow grease to
accumulate on hood or filter. Greasy deposits
in the fan could catch fire. When flaming food
