Remove the surface units. Then lift out the
drip pans.
Place them in a covered container. Add
1/4 cup ammonia and let soak several hours
or overnight. Wash, rinse well and dry.
The drip pans may also be cleaned in a
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.
NOTE: Do not clean the drip pans in a self-cleaning oven.
Drip Pans (electric coil models only)
Surface Units (electric coil models only)
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:
To remove the drip pans for cleaning, the
surface units must be removed first.
If the surface unit has a locking tab, push the
surface unit back toward the receptacle to free
the locking tab from the cooktop.
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.
NOTE: 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.

Some models have a cooktop that can be lifted up for
easier cleaning. The entire cooktop may be lifted up
and supported in the up position.
The surface units do not need to be removed;
however, you may remove one to make raising
the cooktop easier. There are two side supports
that lock into position when the cooktop is
lifted up.
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.
NOTE: Do not lift the cooktop on radiant top models.
Lifting the cooktop can lead to damage and improper
operation of the range.
