Lift-Up Cooktop (on some models)

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

Be sure all surface units are turned off before raising the cooktop. There are two side supports that lock into position when the cooktop is lifted up. The surface units do not need to be removed before lifting. However, you may remove one to make raising the cooktop easier.

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.

Surface Units and Drip Pans

To clean the surface units, turn the control to the highest setting for a minute. The coils will burn off any soil.

CAUTION

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

●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.

To remove a surface unit:

To remove the drip pans for cleaning, the surface units must be removed first.

Sutiace Unit

Receptacle

Drip Pan

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.

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 the dishwasher.

Black drip pans (on some models) may be cleaned in

aself-cleaning oven after they have been thoroughly rinsed. However, self-cleaning them may cause them to lose their original luster and shine.

Clean the area under the drip pans often.

Built-up soil, especially grease, may catch on 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.
