Be sure all 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.
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.

Troubleshooting TipsInstallation Instructions Customer ServiceOperating InstructionsSafety Information
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 the 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.
