To remove a surface unit:

Receptacle

To remove the drip pans for cleaning,

 

 

 

 

 

 

the surface units must be removed first.

 

 

 

Lift the surface unit about 1″ above

 

 

 

the drip pan and pull it out.

 

 

 

Do not lift the surface unit more than 1. If you

 

 

 

do, it may not lie flat on the drip pan when you

 

 

 

plug it back in.

 

 

 

NOTE: Repeated lifting of the surface unit

 

 

 

more than 1″ above the drip pan can

 

 

 

permanently damage the receptacle.

To replace a surface unit:

Replace the drip pan into the recess in the cooktop. Make sure the opening in the pan lines up with the receptacle.

Insert the terminals of the surface unit through the opening in the drip pan and into the receptacle.

Guide the surface unit into place so it rests evenly.

Do not immerse the surface units in liquids of any kind.

Do not clean the surface units in a dishwasher.

Do not bend the surface unit plug terminals.

Do not attempt to clean, adjust or in any way repair the plug-in receptacle.

Instructions Operating Instructions Care

Drip Pans

Remove the surface units. Then lift out the drip pans.

For best results, clean the drip pans by hand. Place them in a covered container (or a plastic bag) with 1/4 cup ammonia to loosen the soil. Then scrub with a soap-filled scouring pad if necessary. Rinse with clean water and polish with

a clean soft cloth.

The drip pans may also be cleaned in a dishwasher.

Clean the area under the drip pans often. Built-up soil, especially grease, may catch fire.

Do not cover the drip pans with foil. Using foil so close to the receptacle could cause shock, fire or damage to the range.

and Cleaning

Be sure all surface units are turned off before raising the cooktop.

Lift-Up Cooktop

Some models have a cooktop that can be lifted up for easier cleaning. The entire cooktop may be lifted up and supported in the up position.

The surface units do not need to be removed; however, you may remove one to make raising the cooktop easier. There are two side supports that lock into position when the cooktop is lifted up.

After cleaning under the cooktop with hot, mild soapy water and a clean cloth, lower the cooktop. Be careful not to pinch your fingers.

To lower the cooktop, push the rods back and gently lower the cooktop until it rests in place.
