Getting Started Important - Please Read and Follow Heating Elements and Glass Ceramic Cooking Surfaces • NEVER touch the glass surface areas directly on or adjacent to the heating elements when the cooktop is in use. • Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near elements may be hot enough to cause burns. • During and after use, DO NOT touch or let clothing or other flammable material contact surface of cooktop or areas near heating elements, until they have had sufficient time to cool. • DO NOT COOK ON BROKEN COOKING SURFACE. If cooking surface should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooking surface and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately. Cleaning Safety • Turn off all controls and wait for appliance parts to cool before touching or cleaning them. DO NOT touch the surface elements or surrounding areas until they have had sufficient time to cool. • Clean appliance with caution. Use care to avoid steam burns if a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. • A steam cleaner is not to be used for cleaning this appliance.
