Solid Element Surface Units

Burn and Electrical Shock Hazard

Solid element surface units do not glow red when hot. Make sure all controls are OFF and the range is COOL before cleaning. Failure to do so can result in burns or electrical shock.

1. Turn off all surface units

3.IMPORTANT: Dry the element completely after cleaning. Turn on the element for a few minutes to thoroughly dry. After the element has cooled, use a paper towel to apply a thin coat of salt-free oil to the surface units to season and re- store the finish. Wipe excess oil off stainless steel trim rings. Then heat 3-5 minutes. Some smoking may occur; this is normal. If surface units have dark spots caused by grease and food, the oil treatment will im-

prove their appearance but not eliminate the spots. NOTE: Optional Electrol@ dressing can be applied to the surface units to improve their appearance.

2.For best results, wipe off surface units with a damp soft cloth and soapy water after each use. Remove burned-on food with a soap-filled scrubbing pad. Rinse well. The red spot in the center of the surface unit will gradually wash off. This is normal and will not affect the operation of the surface unit. NOTE: Make sure plastic scrub- bing pad does not contain metal or abrasive particles. Do not use abrasive cleaners.

4.The stainless steel trim rings will gradually yellow from the heat of the surface units and pans. This is normal. The yellowing can be removed by using stainless steel cleaner or Cook Top Polishing Creme on the trim rings.
