3. While pushing the surface unit terminal into the receptacle, lift a little on the edge of the unit nearest the receptacle.

4. When the terminal is pushed into the recep- tacle as far as it will go, the surface unit will fit into the reflector bowl.

Reflector bowls reflect heat back to the utensils on the surface units. They also help catch spills. When they are kept clean, they reflect heat better and look new longer.

If a reflector bowl gets discolored, some of the utensils may not be flat enough, or some may be too large for the surface unit. In either case, some of the heat that’s meant to go into or around a utensil goes down and heats the reflector bowl. This extra heat can discolor it.

1. For best results, wipe off surface units with a damp soft cloth and soapy water after each use. Remove burned-on food with a soap-filled scouring pad. The red spot in the center of the surface unit will gradually wash off. This is normal and will not affect the operation of the surface unit.

2. IMPORTANT: Dry the element completely after cleaning. Turn on the element for a few minutes to thoroughly dry. After the element has cooled, use a paper towel to apply a thin coat of salt-free oil to the surface units to season and restore the finish. Wipe excess oil off stainless steel trim rings. Then heat 3-5 minutes. Some smoking may occur; this is normal. If surface units have dark spots caused by grease and food, the oil treatment will improve their appearance but not eliminate the spots.

NOTE: Optional Electrol@ dressing can be applied to the surface units to improve their appearance.

3. The stainless steel trim rings will yellow from the heat of the surface units and pans. This is normal. The yellowing can be removed by using stainless steel cleaner or Cook Top Polishing Creme on the trim rings.
