To Remove and Replace Surface Elements and Drip Bowls (some models)

CAUTION

Be careful not to bend terminal ends when replacing elements after cleaning.

CAUTION

Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL.

To Remove

1.Lift up edge of surface element across from terminal end just enough to clear the edge of the drip bowl.

2.Gently slide the surface element out of the terminal plug.

3.Lift the drip bowl up and out.

To Replace

1.Line up the opening of the drip bowl with the terminal plug.

2.Hold the surface element as level as possible and slide the terminal end through the opening and into the terminal plug.

3.Be sure the surface element is level to reduce the hazard of pans sliding off the element.

To Raise the Top for Cleaning

1.Grasp the sides and lift from the front. Some models may have a lift-up rod to support the top in its raised position. Lift the top only high enough to allow the support rod to fit into place, then gently lower the cooktop onto the raised rod.

2.Clean underneath using a clean cloth and hot, soapy water.

3.Gently lower the cooktop into the frame. If your model has a support rod, lower the support rod, then gently lower the cooktop into the frame.

CAUTION

When lowering the lift-up cooktop, grasp the sides with fingertips only. Be careful not to pinch fingers. DO NOT drop or bend the cooktop when raising or lowering. This could damage the surface.

A rod swings up to support the top for cleaning underneath.

Porcelain enamel cooktop cleaning instructions (some models)

WARNING

Do not use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. The fumes can be hazardous to your health, and can chemically damage the cooking surface.

CAUTION

Before cleaning the surface cooktop, be sure the controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is cool.

DO NOT use commercial oven cleaners on the exterior surfaces including cooktop and door frame.

Correct and consistent cleaning is essential to maintaining your porcelain enamel cooktop. If food spills and grease spatters are not removed, they may burn onto the surface of the cooktop and cause permanent discoloration.

Daily Cleaning

For normal soil:

1.Allow cooktop surface to cool.

2.Wipe off spills and spatters using a clean paper towel or a clean cloth with warm, soapy water.

3.If needed, use a soapy steel wool pad or other mild household cleaners.

4.Be sure to rinse off the cleaners or the porcelain may become damaged during future heating.
