To Raise and Lower the Top for Cleaning
1. Remove burner grates and spillover bowls. Set aside.
2. Grasp the sides of the cooktop and then lift from the front.
3. Lift the top high enough to allow the support rods to snap into place. The Lift-up rods will support the top in its raised position.
4. Clean underneath using hot, soapy water and a clean cloth; then, dry.
5. To lower the range top, grasp the front corner of each side of the top while pushing back on each rod with the heel of your
hand. This will release the notched support. Hold the range top and gently slide the range top down to the range.
To Remove and Replace Burners for Cleaning
To Remove Burners
1. Remove shipping screws with a Phillips Head screwdriver. See illustration for screw locations.
2. Tilt the burner at the end closest to the support bar until the locator tab is released (front burners tilt right, rear burners
tilt left). Move the burner toward the back of the range. This will separate it from the gas valve at the front of the
range.
To Replace Burners
1. Slide the burner tube over the gas valve at the front of the range (front burners fit over the right valve, rear burners
fit over the left valve on each side of the range).
2. Tilt burner so that the locating tab will slide into the slot on the support bar. Make sure burners are properly seated
on support bar and are level.
3. Replace shipping screws if desired.
DO NOT turn the burners on when the cooktop is raised for cleaning. Be sure that the top is completely
lowered and securely in place before turning on the burners.
Care & Cleaning
When lowering the top,
grasp the sides with fingertips only. Be
careful not to pinch fingers. Also, DO
NOT drop or bend the rangetop when
raising or lowering. This could damage
the surface.
