Be sure all the controls are turned to OFF and the surface units are cool before attempting to remove them.

Surface Units (on some models)

 

 

 

To clean the surface units, turn the control to the highest

 

 

 

setting for a minute. The coils will burn off any soil.

 

 

 

To remove a surface unit:

Receptacle

Drip pan

To remove the drip pans for cleaning, the surface units

 

 

 

must be removed first.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lift the surface unit about 1 inch above the drip pan and

 

 

 

pull it out.

 

 

 

Do not lift the surface unit more than 1 inch. If you do, it may not lie

 

 

 

flat on the drip pan when you plug it back in.

 

 

 

Repeated lifting of the surface unit more than 1 inch 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.

Drip Pans (on some models)

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 the 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.
