CARE AND CLEANING

If your range is removed for cleaning, servicing or any reason, be sure anti-tip device is re-engaged properly when the range is replaced. Failure to take this precaution could result in tipping of the range and cause injury.

Proper care and cleaning are important so your radiant range will give you efficient and satisfactory service. If soil, mineral deposits from evaporated water spills or metal rub-off from aluminum cookware is not removed, it will burn on the glass cooktop surface and cause permanent discoloration.

Follow these directions carefully in caring for the radiant cooktop to help assure safe and proper maintenance.

Be sure that the surface unit control knobs are turned off and that the entire cooktop is cool before cleaning. (Sugar spills are the exception. Please see the Glass Cooktop Cleaning section.) Do not use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. The fumes can be hazardous to your health and can chemically attack the glass surface.

BE SURE ELECTRIC POWER IS OFF BEFORE CLEANING ANY PART OF THE RANGE.

1.Place it into groove of the light receptacle. Pull wire forward to the center of the cover until it snaps into place. When in place, the wire holds the cover firmly. Be certain the wire is in the depression in the center of the cover.

2.Connect electrical power to the range.
