To clean the surface units, turn the control to the highest

setting for   minute. The coils will burn off any soil.

CAUTION

 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.

To remove the drip pans for cleaning, the surface units

must be removed first. Make sure the surface units are
completely cool before touching them.

you plug it back in.

than 1 inch above the drip pan can permanently
damage the receptacle.

 Make sure opening in the pan lines up

the opening in the drip pan and into the receptacle.

●

Drip Pans

The drip pans can be cleaned by hand. Place them in a
covered container (or a plastic bag) with 1/4 cup
ammonia to loosen the soil. Then scrub with a soap
filled scouring pad if necessary. Rinse with clean
water and polish with a clean soft cloth.
The drip pans may also be cleaned in the dishwasher.

Clean the area under the drip pans often.
Built-up soil, especially grease, may catch fire.

Do not cover drip pans with foil. Using foil so close
to the receptacle could cause shock, fire or damage to
the range.

CAUTION: Be sure all controls are turned to
OFF and surface units are cool before attempting
to remove them.

and a soft cloth. Rub control panel lightly.
