IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: This information is intended for use by individuals
pos sess ing adequate backgrounds of electrical, elec tron ic and mechanical
experience. Any at tempt to repair a major ap pli ance may result in personal
injury and property damage. Neither the manufacturer nor the seller can be
responsible for the in ter pre ta tion of this information or assume any liability
in connection with its use.
NOTE: Installation information is
for reference only. See Installation
Instructions shipped with the product
for complete details and before
attempting to install.
Brackets should be attached to the floor
and wall to hold either the right or left
rear leg leveler. Make sure the leg leveler
reengages the bracket when the range
is moved for any reason.
RADIANT HEATING ELEMENT SYSTEMS
Heating Elements: The radiant heating element consists of a spiral-wound resistance
wire attached to microporous insulation with molded ceramic fiber walls in a corrosion-
protected metal tray.
The Heating Elements come in various sizes:
•
•
•
•
DUAL CIRCUIT CONTROL
The left-front element may have two cooking zones:
• To use the large cooking area or bridge, push to turn
the control knob clockwise to the desired setting.
• To use the small cooking area, push to turn the control
knob counterclockwise to the desired setting.
When a cooking zone is activated, coils beneath the zone
radiate heat through the glass cooktop to the utensil. The
red glow of the coils will be visible through the glass. It will
take the cooking zone on the glass surface a few moments
to heat up. The coil cycles on and off to maintain the
selected setting.
TRIPLE CIRCUIT CONTROL
The right-front element may have three cooking zones:
• To use the large cooking zone, push to turn the control
clockwise to the desired setting.
• To use the small cooking zone, push to turn the control
knob counterclockwise to the desired setting.
• To use the medium cooking zone, push to turn the control
knob clockwise or counterclockwise to the desired setting
between the large and small setting areas.
When a cooking zone is activated, coils beneath the zone
radiate heat through the glass cooktop to the utensil. The
red glow of the coils will be visible through the glass. It will
take the cooking zone on the glass surface a few moments
to heat up. The coil cycles on and off to maintain the
selected setting.
HOT SURFACE INDICATOR LIGHT
The Hot Surface Indicator Lights are now under the cooktop. The Hot Surface Indicator
Light will turn on when the surface unit switch is turned on. The Indicator Light will
remain on through an additional set of contacts on the limiter as long as the glass
temperature exceeds 150°F.

TEMPERATURE LIMIT/HOT LIGHT SWITCH
The Temperature Limit/Hot Light Switch performs two functions:
1. Turns on HOT LIGHT when the Surface Unit Switch is turned on. The hot light will
remain on until the glass surface above the heating unit has cooled below 150°F
(even after the surface unit switch has been turned off).
2. Detects when the glass temperature above a unit has exceeded its limit
of approximately 1031°F and disconnects power to that unit. When the glass
temperature cools below 1031°F, the unit will turn back on. The temperature limit/hot
light switch cannot be calibrated.
COOKTOP REMOVAL
To Remove:
1. Disconnect power.
2. Remove the 2 screws securing the front
of the cooktop to the chassis.
3. Prop up the cooktop, and unplug the
connectors at the back by squeezing the side
tabs. Remove the screw securing the ground
wire.
4. Lift up the back end of the cooktop about
2 inches to unhook the hinge pins from the
brackets.
5. Reverse the process to reinstall.
CAUTION:
Raising the
cooktop too high can break the glass.
DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE SERVICING
IMPORTANT: RECONNECT ALL GROUNDING DEVICES. All parts of this appliance
capable of conducting electrical current are grounded. If grounding wires, screws,
straps, clips, nuts or washers used to complete a path to ground are removed for
service, they must be returned to their original position and properly fastened.
CONTROL PANEL ASSEMBLY REMOVAL
The control panel contains the ERC, infinite heat switches and membrane switch.
To service:
1. Remove the 2 screws (from bottom) securing the control panel assembly to the
backguard endplates.
2. Remove the 2 screws at the top, in the back of the range.
3. Pull out the bottom of the panel while lifting up the panel.
4. Lay the panel assembly on the cooking surface.
CAUTION:
Place a protective covering (such as a towel) between
the control panel and the cooking surface to avoid damage to the control panel.
ERC ACCESS
