Surface Units
(on some models)
Be sure all the controls are turned to OF and
the surface units are cool before attempting to
remove them.
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.
Drip Pans
(if included)
Remove the surface units. Then lift out the drip pans.
Place them in a covered container (or a plastic bag)
with 1/4 cup ammonia and let soak several hours or
overnight. Wash, rinse well and dry.
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.
NOTE: Do not clean the drip pans in a self-cleaning
oven.
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.
IMPORTANT:
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.
