Care and cleaning of the range (cont.).
Be sure the controls are turned to OFF and the surface units are cool before attempting to remove them.
Surface Units
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.
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.
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 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.

Lift-Up Cooktop
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.
Be sure all surface units are turned
off before raising the cooktop.
