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. For best results, wipe off surface

units with a damp sofl cloth and

soapy water after

each use. Burned-

 

on food may be removed with a

 

soapy scouring pad. 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.

 

 

2. IMPORTANT: After cleaning, apply

 

a thin coat of salt-free oil to the

 

COOL surface units, then heat 3-5

 

minutes. It may still smoke slightly

 

when heated. If surface units have

 

dark spots caused by grease and

 

food, the oil treatment will improve

 

their appearance but not eliminate

 

the spots.

 

 

NOTE: Optional

Electrola dressing

can be applied to the surface units to improve their appearance.
