IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,

injury to persons, or damage when using the cooktop, follow basic precautions, including the following: ■ CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above a cooktop – Children climbing on the cooktop to reach items could be seriously injured. ■ Proper Installation – Be sure your cooktop is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician. ■ Never Use Your Cooktop for Warming or Heating the Room. ■ Do Not Leave Children Alone – Children should not be left alone or unattended in area where cooktop is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the cooktop. ■ Wear Proper Apparel – Loose-fitting or hanging garments should never be worn while using the cooktop. ■ User Servicing – Do not repair or replace any part of the cooktop unless specifically recommended in the manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician. ■ Storage on Cooktop – Flammable materials should not be stored near surface units. ■ Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires – Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher. ■ Use Only Dry Potholders – Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth. ■ DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR UNITS – Surface units may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact surface units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among those areas are the cooktop and surfaces facing the cooktop. ■ Use Proper Pan Size – This cooktop is equipped with one or more surface units of different size. Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to burner will also improve efficiency. ■ Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High Heat Settings – Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. ■ Glazed Cooking Utensils – Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. ■ Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend Over Adjacent Surface Units – To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of a utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface units. ■ Do Not Cook on Broken Cooktop – If cooktop 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 With Caution – If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. For units with ventilating hood – ■ Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently – Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter. ■ When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on. For units with coil elements – ■ Make Sure Reflector Pans or Drip Bowls Are in Place – Absence of these pans or bowls during cooking may subject wiring or components underneath to damage. ■ Protective Liners – Do not use aluminum foil to line surface unit drip bowls, except as suggested in the manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock, or fire. ■ Do Not Soak Removable Heating Elements - Heating elements should never be immersed in water.4

Single sizeB. Dual sizeC. Triple sizeA. Single elementB. Dual element

Warm Zone Element The Warm Zone feature can be used to keep cooked foods warm. One hour is the recommended maximum time to maintain food quality.Do not use it to heat cold foods. When the Keep Warm function is in use, it will not glow red like the cooking zones, but the indicator light will glow on the control panel. The Warm Zone feature can be used alone or when any of the other surface cooking areas are being used, and can be set from LOW to HIGH for different levels of heating.The Warm Zone Element area will not glow red when cycling on. However, the hot surface indicator light will glow as long as the Warm Zone Element area is too hot to touch.■ Use only cookware and dishes recommended for oven and cooktop use.■ Cover all foods with a lid or aluminum foil. When warming baked goods, allow a small opening in the cover for moisture to escape.■ Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic wrap may melt.■ Use pot holders or oven mitts to remove food. To Use:

1. Push in and turn Warm Zone knob to desired setting.2. Turn knob to OFF when finished.

Melt The Melt function is available on all the surface cooking elements, and is ideal for melting chocolate or butter. To Use:

Ceramic Glass The surface cooking area will glow red when an element is on, except when Melt or Warming Zone (on some models) are used. It may cycle on and off to maintain the selected heat level. It is normal for the surface of light colored ceramic glass to appear to change color when surface cooking areas are hot. As the glass cools, it will return to its original color. Cleaning off the cooktop before and after each use will help keep it free from stains and provide the most even heating. On cooktops with light colored ceramic glass, soils and stains may be more visible, and may require more cleaning and attention. Cooktop cleaner and a cooktop scraper are recommended. For more information, see “General Cleaning” section.■ Avoid storing jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping a heavy or hard object onto the cooktop could crack the cooktop.■ To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not leave a hot lid on the cooktop. As the cooktop cools, air can become trapped between the lid and the cooktop, and the ceramic glass could break when the lid is removed.■ For foods containing sugar in any form, clean up all spills and soils as soon as possible. Allow the cooktop to cool down slightly. Then, while wearing oven mitts, remove the spills using a scraper while the surface is still warm. If sugary spills are allowed to cool down, they can adhere to the cooktop and can cause pitting and permanent marks.■ To avoid scratches, do not slide cookware or bakeware across the cooktop. Aluminum or copper bottoms and rough finishes on cookware or bakeware could leave scratches or marks on the cooktop.■ Do not cook popcorn in prepackaged aluminum containers on the cooktop. They could leave aluminum marks that cannot be removed completely.■ To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not allow objects that could melt, such as plastic or aluminum foil, to touch any part of the entire cooktop.■ To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not use the cooktop as a cutting board.■ Use cookware about the same size as the surface cooking area. Cookware should not extend more than ½" (1.3 cm) outside the area.■ Use flat-bottomed cookware for best heat conduction and energy efficiency. Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed or dented bottoms could cause uneven heating and poor cooking results.■ Determine flatness by placing the straight edge of a ruler across the bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the ruler, no space or light should be visible between it and the cookware.■ Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry before using them. Residue and water can leave deposits when heated. ■ To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not cook foods directly on the cooktop. WARNING Food Poisoning Hazard Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness. A. Surface cooking areaB. Cookware/cannerC. ½" (1.3 cm) maximum overhang

Downdraft Ventilation System The downdraft ventilation system consists of a vent cover, filter and vent fan. The downdraft ventilation system removes cooking vapors, odors and smoke from foods prepared on the cooktop. IMPORTANT: For optimal performance, operate downdraft ventilation system with the filter properly installed. To avoid the buildup of grease, the filter should be cleaned often. For more information on proper filter placement and cleaning, see “Downdraft Ventilation System” in the “General Cleaning” section. To Use: Turn vent fan knob to LOW, MED (medium) or HIGH. Turn vent fan knob to OFF when finished cooking, or when the cooktop is not in use. Home Canning When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface cooking areas, elements or surface burners between batches. This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool. ■ Center the canner on the grate or largest surface cooking area or element. On electric cooktops, canners should not extend more than ½" (1.3 cm) beyond the surface cooking area or element. ■ Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas, elements or surface burners at the same time. ■ On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners.■ For more information, contact your local agricultural department. Companies that manufacture home canning products can also offer assistance. Cookware IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface cooking area, element or surface burner. Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides and a well-fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy thickness. Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop or grates. Aluminum and copper may be used as a core or base in cookware. However, when used as a base they can leave permanent marks on the cooktop or grates. Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has the same characteristics as its base material. For example, aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the properties of aluminum. Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material characteristics. A. Vent grille B. Filter support tray (non-removable) C. Removable grease filter D. Ceramic glass top

COOKWARE CHARACTERISTICS Aluminum ■ Heats quickly and evenly.■ Suitable for all types of cooking.■ Medium or heavy thickness is best for most cooking tasks.

Stainless steel ■ Heats quickly, but unevenly.■ A core or base of aluminum or copper on stainless steel provides even heating.8 COOKTOP CARE General Cleaning IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and the cooktop is cool. Always follow label instructions on cleaning products. Soap, water and a soft cloth or sponge are suggested first unless otherwise noted. CERAMIC GLASS To avoid damage to ceramic glass, do not use steel wool, abrasive powder cleansers, chlorine bleach, rust remover or ammonia. Always wipe with a clean, wet cloth or sponge and dry thoroughly to avoid streaking and staining. Cooktop Polishing Creme is recommended for regular use to help avoid scratches, pitting and abrasions, and to condition the cooktop. It may be ordered as an accessory. See “Assistance or Service” to order. A Cooktop Scraper is also recommended for stubborn soils, and can be ordered as an accessory. See “Assistance or Service” to order. The Cooktop Scraper uses razor blades. Store razor blades out of the reach of children. Cleaning Method: Light to moderate soil ■ Paper towels or clean damp sponge Sugary spills (jellies, candy, syrup) ■ Cooktop Scraper: Scrape sugary spills while the cooktop is still warm. You may want to wear oven mitts while doing so. ■ Cooktop Polishing Creme and clean damp paper towel: Clean as soon as cooktop has cooled down. Rub creme into surface with a damp paper towel or soft cloth. Continue rubbing until white film disappears. Heavy soil, dark streaks, specks and discoloration ■ Cooktop Polishing Creme or nonabrasive cleanser: Rub product into soil with a damp paper towel or soft cloth. Continue rubbing until white film disappears. Burned-on soil ■ Cooktop Polishing Creme and Cooktop Scraper: Rub creme into soil with damp paper towel.
