Using and Caring for Your Cooktop

3.Hold the surface unit as level as possible with the terminal just started into the receptacle. Push the surface unit terminal into the receptacle.

4.When terminal is pushed into the receptacle as far as it will go, push down the edge of the surface unit opposite the receptacle.

NOTE: Reflector bowls reflect heat back to the cookware on the surface units. They also help catch spills. When they are kept clean, they reflect heat better and look new longer.

If a reflector bowl gets discolored, some of your cookware may not be flat enough, or some may be too large for the surface unit. In either case, some of the heat that is meant to go into or around cookware goes down and heats the reflector bowl. This extra heat can discolor it.

Cleaning under the lift-up cooktop

1. Lift front of cooktop at both front corners until the support rods lock into place.

2. Wipe with warm, soapy water. Use a soapy steel-wool pad on heavily soiled areas.

3. To lower the cooktop, lift cooktop from both sides while pushing the support rods back to unlock them. Lower the cooktop into place.
