Storage in or on Appliance

- Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven or 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.

Use Proper Pan Size

- This appliance 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

- Boil over causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.

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 or oven bottoms, except as suggested in the manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock, or fire.

Glazed Cooking Utensils

- Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for range-top 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 Soak Removable Heating Elements

- Heating elements should never be immersed in water.

Do Not Cook on Broken Cook-Top

- If cook-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 Cook-Top 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.

Personal safety

WARNING

To reduce the risk of injury to persons, in the event of a grease fire, observe the following:

• Grease is flammable and should be handled carefully.
• Do not use water on grease fires.
• Never pick up a flaming pan. Smother sheet or flat tray.
• Flaming grease outside of utensil can be extinguished with baking soda or, if available, a multipurpose dry chemical or foam type extinguisher.
• Let fat cool before attempting to handle it.
• Wipe up spill over immediately.
• If you are “flaming” liquors or other spirits under an exhaust, turn the fan off. The draft could cause the flames to spread out of control.
• Never leave the surface area unattended at high heat setting. Boil over cause smoking and greasy spill over, which may ignite.

CAUTION

• Do not allow aluminum foil, plastic, paper or cloth to come in contact with a hot Surface. Do not allow pans to boil dry.
• Be careful to prevent burns. If the flames do not go out immediately, evacuate and call the fire department.
  • Always have a working smoke detector near the kitchen.
• Leave the hood ventilator on when

flambéing food only if there is smoke without flames.

Use an extinguisher only if

• You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it.
• The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
• The fire department is being called.
• You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
• Never use water on cooking fires.
• In the event that personal clothing catches fire, drop and roll immediately to extinguish flames.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of burn injuries during cooktop use, observe the following:

• Never use the cooktop to warm or heat a room.
• Children or pets should not be left alone or unattended in an area where appliances are in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.

CAUTION

• Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above a range or on the backguard of a range;
• children climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously injured.

When using the cooktop

- Do not touch surface units or areas near units. Surface areas may become hot enough to cause burns. Surface elements may be

hot even though they are dark in color. During and after use, do not touch or let flammable materials contact heating elements until they have had time to cool.

When using the cooktop installed over oven

• Do not touch heating elements or interior surfaces of oven. Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns – among these surfaces are (identification of surfaces – for example, oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven doors, and windows of oven doors).

- 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.

- Use only certain types of glass, heatproof glass ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils that are suitable for cooktop use

This will avoid permanent damage to the surface.

Use of the heating areas

Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with four surface units of different size. Select utensils having sturdy 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 setting. Boilover causes smoke and greasy spillovers that may ignite.

Caution should be taken not to forget the heaters connected if a pot is not placed on them.

Care should be taken not to place big pots too close to any heat sensitive elements of the surface where the hob is built in.

Do not cook food directly on the surface of the hob. Your glass-ceramic hob is not a griddle and should not be used for this purpose. However attractive the idea may seem, it will only create problems that are better avoided, as the food is bound to stick to the surface.

Control panel

Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with four surface units of different size. Select utensils having sturdy flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element.

Electric Cooktop Operation

Before using the cooktop for the first time

• All products are wiped clean with solvents at the factory to remove any visible signs of dirt, oil, and grease which may have remained from the manufacturing process.
• If present, remove all packing and literature from the cooktop surface.
• Clean your glass top before the first time you use it. A thorough cleaning with a glass top cleaner is recommended. It only takes a minute and puts a clean, shiny coating on the glass top before its initial use.
• There may be a slight odour during the first several uses: this is normal and will disappear.
• Optimum cooking result depends on the proper cookware being selected and used.
• The cooking surface will hold the heat and remain hot over 20 minutes after the elements have been turned off.
• The glass ceramic cooking surface is a durable material resistant to impact but not unbreakable if a pan or other object is dropped on it.
• Do not use aluminum foil directly on the glass; it will melt and damage the glass surface.
• Do nor allow pans to boil dry. This can damage the pan, element and /or cooktop.

• Never cook food directly on the glass.

• Do not slide cookware across cooking surface it may scratch the glass.

• Using cast iron cookware on the glass cooktop is not recommended. Cast iron retains heat and may result in cooktop damage.

Cookware

General

The choice of pan directly affects the cooking performance (speed and uniformity) for best result select pans with the following features.

Flat base

When a pan is hot, the base (pan bottom) should rest evenly on the surface without wobbling (rocking).

Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight side, a well fitting lid and the material should be of medium to heavy thickness.

Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop.

Match Pan Diameter to radiant element

The base of the pan should cover or match the diameter of the element being used.

WARNING BALANCED PAN UNBALANCED PAN U&C014-2

Cookware characteristics Cooking Utensil Guidelines

- Aluminium: heats and cools quickly frying, braising, roasting. May leave metal markings on glass.

- Cast Iron: heats and cools quickly Not recommended. Retains excessive heat and may damage cooktop.

• Copper: tin heats and cools quickly gourmet, cooking, lined wine sauces, egg dishes.

- Enamel ware: response depends on base Not recommended, metal Imperfections in enamel may scratch cooktop.

• Glass Ceramic: heats and cools slowly not recommended. Heats too slowly. Imperfections in enamel may scratch cooktop.

- Stainless Steel: heats and cools at moderate soups, sauces, rate vegetables, general cooking.

Observe the following points in canning

Pots that extend beyond 1 of the surface unit's circle are not recommended for most surface cooking.

However, when canning with water-bath or pressure canner, larger-diameter pots may be used.

This is because boiling water temperatures (even under pressure) are not harmful to the cooktop surfaces surrounding the surface units.

However, do not use large diameter canners or other large-diameter pots for frying or boiling foods other than water.

Most syrup or sauce mixtures, and all types of frying, cook at temperatures much higher than boiling water.

Such temperatures could eventually harm the glass cooktop surfaces.

Be sure the canner fits over:

- the center of the surface unit. If your cooktop or its location does not allow the canner to be centered on the surface unit, use smaller diameter pots for good canning results.

- Flat-bottomed canners must be used. Do not use canners with flanged or rippled bottoms (often found in enamelware) because they don't make enough contact with the surface units and take a long time to boil water.

• When canning, use recipes and procedures from reputable sources. Reliable recipes and procedures are available from the manufacturer of your canner; manufacturers of glass jars for canning, such as Ball and Kerr brand; and the United States Department of Agriculture Extension Service.
• Remember that canning is a process that generates large amounts of steam. To avoid burns from steam or heat, be careful when canning.

CAUTION

Safe canning requires that harmful micro organisms are destroyed and that the jars are sealed completely. When canning foods in a water-bath canner, a gentle but steady boil must be maintained for the required time. When canning foods in a pressure canner, the pressure must be maintained for the required time.

After you have adjusted the controls, it is very important to make sure the prescribed boil or pressure levels are maintained for the required time.

Since you must make sure to process the canning jars for the prescribed time, with no interruption in processing time, do not can on any cooktop surface unit if your canner is not flat.

Special pans

Special pans, such as griddles, roasters, pressure cookers, woks, water (Use only a flat-bottom wok).

CAUTION

Food packaged in aluminum foil should not be placed directly on the glass ceramic surface for cooking; aluminum foil can melt and cause permanent damage.

CAUTION

Plastic, paper, and cloth can melt or burn when in contact with a hot surface. Do not let these items come in contact with the hot glass.

Cleaning and care

HOW TO CLEAN YOUR GLASS- CERAMIC HOB AND KEEP IT CLEAN

Your glass-ceramic hob is probably the easiest type of cooktop to clean. However, because it looks so good, you will expect more of it than any other type. The following comments are intended to help you to ensure that it does not fall below your expectations. Clean the hob top regularly either while it is still warm – but not hot - or as soon as it has cooled down. If any food or liquid, has spilled onto the surface, remove it before using the hob again. Do not let it get burnt on the hob. The longer it is left, the harder it will be to remove later. Generally the glass-ceramic surface of the hob can be cleaned with paper kitchen towels of any good quality, non-scratch kitchen cleaner. If food has boiled over or spilled on the surface and then burnt, it is best to remove it first with a razor blade scraper of the type used for removing paint from a window panel. If the handle or blade holder is plastic, make sure that only the blade comes into contact with the hot surface. The plastic could melt and even stick to it. For the best results the hob should be cleaned regularly with a special hob cleaner-conditioner containing silicone. This provides extra protection against soiling and makes it easier to clean next time. In the event of persistent stains caused by hard water, grease or marks with a metallic sheen, which cannot be removed by any of the methods suggested above, we recommend the use of Solvol. Autosol,

which can be obtained from motoring accessory shops or the motoring section of supermarkets and do-it-yourself centres. Whatever method you choose to clean your glass-ceramic hob, always wipe it over thoroughly afterwards with a wet cloth to remove all traces of food or cleaner and then wipe it dry. The instruction with the cleaner may suggest that this is not necessary, but with some types residue left on the surface, it is better not to run the risk of this happening.

A Few Suggestions To Help You Keep Your Hob Looking Like New

1. Do not clean your hob with abrasive or corrosive cleaners such as scouring powder, wire wool, oven cleaner or rust remover.
2. Do not leave small particles of grit on the surface, for example sand or soil left on vegetables. If grit gets trapped under the bottom of a pan, it will scratch the surface.
3. Pans or dishes may have rough edges or pitted bottoms which can cause scratching if they are slid across the surface, so it is best to avoid doing so. This is particularly true of cast-iron utensils.
4. Do not let anything that may melt (plastic, kitchen foil, sugar or food with a high sugar content) come into contact with the surface of the hob while it is hot. Should anything accidentally melt on the top, remove it immediately (while still hot) with a razor blade scraper.
