Care and cleaning of the range.
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.
Push the surface unit back toward
the receptacle to free the locking
tab from the cooktop.
Lift the surface unit about 1above
the drip pan and pull it out.
Do not lift the surface unit more than 1. 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 1above 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.
Push the surface unit in and down
to lock the tab in place so it rests
evenly in the cooktop.
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.
