⚠ WARNING!

For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:

- Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician in accordance with local codes and the provided installation instructions.

■Have the installer show you the location of the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference.

Do not leave children alone—children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where an appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.

■ Teach children not to play with the controls or any other part of the cooktop.

- Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang on the cooktop.

■ CAUTION: Items of interest to children should not be stored in cabinets above a cooktop—children climbing on the cooktop to reach items could be seriously injured.

■ Always keep combustible wall coverings, curtains or drapes a safe distance from your cooktop.

■ Always keep dish towels, dishcloths, pot holders and other linens a safe distance away from your cooktop.

■Always keep wooden and plastic utensils and canned food a safe distance away from your cooktop.

Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while using the appliance. Flammable material could be ignited if brought in contact with hot surface units and may cause severe burns.

■ Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holders touch hot surface units. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth. Such cloths can catch fire on a hot surface unit.

For your safety, never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.

Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely with well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

Flaming grease outside a pan can be put out by covering with baking soda or, if available, by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY...

Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160^ F and poultry to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180^ F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against foodborne illness.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

▲WARNING!

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate on the cooktop.

Do not touch surface units. These surfaces may be hot enough to burn even though they are dark in color. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact the surface units or areas nearby the surface units; allow sufficient time for cooling first.

Potentially hot surfaces include the cooktop and areas facing the cooktop.

To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage, the handle of a container should be turned toward the center of the cooktop without extending over any nearby surface units.

■ Always turn the surface unit control to off before removing the cookware.

Use proper pan size—Select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the surface unit to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to burner will also improve efficiency.

Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.

Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, earthenware or other glazed containers are suitable for cooktop cooking; others may break because of the sudden change in temperature.

- Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or medium high heat settings.

■ Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan.

■ Use little fat for effective shallow or deep-fat frying. Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spillovers when food is added.
If a combination of oils or fats will be used in frying, stir together before heating, or as fats melt slowly.
■Always heat fat slowly and watch as it heats.
■ Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point.
■Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.
■ Do not store flammable materials near the cooktop.
- Keep the vent grille and grease filters clean to maintain good venting and to avoid grease fires.
Do not store or use combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any appliance.
Clean only parts listed in this Owner's Manual.
■ Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils or food on the cooktop when not in use.
- Keep cooktop clean and free of accumulation of grease or spillovers which may ignite.
■ Never heat unopened food containers. Pressure buildup may make container burst and cause injury.
■ Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings on or near your cooktop.

RADIANT SURFACE UNITS

Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat after the controls have been turned off.

■ Avoid scratching the glass cooktop. The cooktop can be scratched with items such as sharp instruments, rings or other jewelry and rivets on clothing.

Large scratches or impacts to glass cooktops can lead to broken or shattered glass.

■ Never use the glass cooktop surface as a cutting board.

Do not place or store items on top of the glass cooktop surface when it is not in use.

Be careful when placing spoons or other stirring utensils on glass cooktop surface when it is in use. They may become hot and could cause burns.

■ Avoid heating an empty pan. Doing so may damage the cooktop and the pan.

- Do not allow water, other liquids or grease to remain on the cooktop.

To minimize the possibility of burns, always be certain that the controls for all surface units are at the off position and the entire glass surface is cool before attempting to clean the cooktop.

Do not operate the glass surface units if the glass is broken. Spillovers or cleaning solution may penetrate a broken cooktop and create a risk of electrical shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately should your glass cooktop become broken.

Clean the cooktop with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface unit, be careful to avoid steam burns. Some cleansers can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

NOTE: We recommend that you avoid wiping any surface unit areas until they have cooled and the indicator light has gone off. Sugar spills are the exception to this. Please see Cleaning the Glass Cooktop in the Care and Cleaning section.

When the cooktop is cool, use only CERAMA BRYTE® Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner and the CERAMA BRYTE® Cleaning Pad to clean the cooktop.

To avoid possible damage to the cooking surface, do not apply the cleaning cream to the glass surface when it is hot.

■ After cleaning, use a dry cloth or paper towel to remove all the cleaning cream residue.

Read and follow all instructions and warnings on the cleaning cream labels.

READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

The HOT SURFACE indicator lights will glow when any radiant element is turned on, and will remain on until the surface is cooled to approximately 150°F.

NOTE:

Hot Surface Indicator Lights come on instantly and stay on even after the surface unit is turned off.

■ They glow brightly until the unit is cooled to approximately 150°F.

SURFACE COOKING

Never cook directly on the glass. Always use cookware.

OFF CENTER

Always place the pan in the center of the surface unit you are cooking on.

DRAGGING

Do not slide cookware across the cooktop because it can scratch the glass. The glass is scratch-resistant, not scratchproof.

About the radiant surface units...

The radiant cooktop features heating units beneath a smooth glass surface.

NOTE: A slight odor is normal when a new cooktop is used for the first time. It is caused by the heating of new parts and insulating materials and will disappear in a short time.

NOTE: On models with light colored glass cooktops, it is normal for the cooking zones to change color when hot or cooling down. This is temporary and will disappear as the glass cools to room temperature.

The surface unit will cycle on and off to maintain your selected control setting.

It is safe to place hot cookware from the oven or surface on the glass surface when the surface is cool.

Even after the surface units are turned off, the glass cooktop retains enough heat to continue cooking. To avoid over-cooking, remove pans from the surface units when the food is cooked. Avoid placing anything on the surface unit until it has cooled completely.

Water stains (mineral deposits) are removable using the cleaning cream or full strength white vinegar.
■ Use of window cleaner may leave an iridescent film on the cooktop. The cleaning cream will remove this discoloration.
- Don't store heavy items above the cooktop. If they drop onto the cooktop, they can cause damage.
- Do not use the surface as a cutting board.

4 PREPARING THE COUNTERTOP

The countertop must have a deep flat surface to accommodate the cooktop and the vent. Countertops with a rolled front edge and backsplash may not provide the flat surface area required.

Clearance between inside front of cabinet and rear of countertop cutout must be 20 ^5/8 " in order to accommodate cooktop depth.

2¾" Min. 20¾" 1¾" Min.

A 1/2" wide flat area is required around the edge of opening for support of the unit. The cooktop unit must be level and sit squarely into countertop opening.

Carefully cut countertop opening according to the dimensions shown in the illustration. Be sure that opening is cut squarely, with sides parallel to each other and rear exactly perpendicular to sides.

205/8" 25" 287/8" 17/8" Min.

5 PREPARING FOR DUCTWORK

NOTE: Ductwork MUST be vented to outside. DO NOT vent into a wall, ceiling, crawlspace, attic or any concealed space.

Cut hole in cabinet wall or floor as appropriate for your installation. Make sure exhaust duct is located between wall studs or floor joists.

NOTE: When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.

6 BLOWER TO DUCTWORK ALIGNMENT

In general, the use of flexible ducting is discouraged because it can cause severely restricted airflow. However, if the blower outlet and the floor or wall duct location do NOT align well, then flexible METAL ducting can be used to adapt to an offset. Good alignment without use of flexible ducting is best.

NOTE:

• Do not exceed the maximum recommended offset of 6".
• Do not allow the flexible ducting to kink or collapse.
• Do stretch the flexible ducting as much as possible to eliminate as much of the corrugation as possible.

EXHAUST BLOWER RATINGS

EXHAUST BLOWER SAFETY WARNING

Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of other fuel burning equipment to prevent back drafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer's guidelines and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) and local code authorities.

NOTE: The exhaust blower output is approximately 400 CFM (cubic feet per minute) without ductwork. Each installation is different and ductwork affects blower output accordingly. Actual blower exhaust CFM can be approximated using the graph below.

Step 1: Calculate the "equivalent duct length" using the "DUCTWORK CALCULATIONS" table in these instructions for your installation.

Step 2: Find the approximate intersection point of the blower exhaust performance curve with the equivalent duct length to estimate the actual maximum blower output for your installation.

Examples: 50 equivalent feet of ductwork has approximately 320 CFM. 100 equivalent feet of ductwork has approximately 265 CFM.
