CARE & MAINTENANCE
SURFACE ELEMENTS
To clean the surface heating elements, turn the
temperature control knob to the highest setting for
one minute; this will burn off any food residue. Note
that this could cause smoke, it is advisable to open
a window or turn on a fan to avoid smoke build up.
Do not immerse the heating elements in liquids
of any kind. Do not put heating elements into a
dishwasher.
To remove the drip pans for cleaning, fi rst remove
the heating elements. Make sure the elements are
cool before touching them.
Lift the element about 1" above the drip pan and
pull to remove. Do not lift the element more than
1" as this can bend internal components and the
element may not lie fl at when it is replaced.
Remove the drip pan and clean as necessary. Drip
pans can be cleaned in a dishwasher or by hand.
Once cleaning is complete, replace the drip pan in
the recess in the cook top. Make sure the opening in
the pan lines up with the receptacle.
Insert the terminals on the heating element through
the opening in the drip pan and into the receptacle.
Guide the element into place gently so that is rests
evenly.
Do not attempt to clean, adjust or repair the
receptacles in any way.
CLEANING
Porcelain enamel cook top
The porcelain enamel fi nish on the cook top is
sturdy but can be damaged if misused. Any acidic
foods such as fruit juices, tomato or vinegar, should
not be permitted to remain on the fi nish for any
length of time.
Lift up cook top
The cook top can be lifted so the area underneath
can be cleaned. Spills that over fl ow the drip pans,
especially grease, should be cleaned to avoid build
up and possible smoking or ignition.
Ensure the heating elements are turned off and cool
before lifting the cook top.
Remove the heating elements and the drip pans.
Lift the cook top and prop open with the internal rod
for easier cleaning. This area can be cleaned with
hot, soapy water and a clean cloth.
Once complete, return the internal prop rod to its
initial position and lower the cook top until it snaps
into position. Be careful not to pinch your fi ngers.
Replace the drip pans and heating elements.
