CARING FOR YOUR COOKTOP
Replacing
1.
Make sure all coil elements are off and
cool before replacing coil elements and
reflector bowls.
2. Line openings in the reflector bowl with
the coil element receptacle.
3. Hold the coil element as level as possible
with the terminal just started into the
receptacle. Push the coil element terminal
into the receptacle.
4. When the terminal is pushed into the
receptacle as far as it will go, push down
the edge of the coil element opposite the
receptacle.
NOTE: Reflector bowls reflect heat back to
the cookware on the coil elements. They
also help catch spills. When they are kept
clean, they reflect heat better and look new
longer.

If a reflector bowl changes color, some of
your cookware may not be flat enough, or
some may be too large for the coil element.
In either case, some of the heat that’s
meant to go into or around cookware goes
down and heats the reflector bowl. This
extra heat can cause it to change color.
