Coil Element Surface
Coil Elements
• When an element is on, it will cycle on and off to maintain the
heat setting.
• Coil elements are self-cleaning. Do not immerse in water.
To remove:
When cool, raise ele-
ment. Carefully pull out and away
from receptacle.
To replace:
Insert element ter-
minals into receptacle. Guide the
element into place. Press down on
the outer edge of element until it
sits level on drip bowl.
Drip Bowls
The drip bowls under each surface element catch boilovers and
must always be used. Absence of drip bowls during cooking may
damage wiring.
To prevent the risk of electric shock or fire, never line drip bowls
with aluminum foil.
Drip bowls will discolor (blue/gold stains) or craze over time if
overheated. This discoloration or crazing is permanent. This will
not affect cooking performance.
Notes:
• Clean cooktop after each use.
• Wipe acidic or sugary spills as soon as the cooktop
has cooled as these spills may discolor or etch the
porcelain.
To protect drip bowl finish:
• To lessen discoloration and crazing, avoid using high
heat for long periods.
• Do not use oversized cookware. Pans should not
extend more than 1-2 inches beyond the element.
• When home canning or cooking with big pots, use
the Canning Element (Model CE1). Contact your
dealer for details or call 1-877-232-6771 USA
or 1-800-688-8408 Canada to order.
• Clean frequently. (See page 17.)
