CARE AND CLEANING

Cleaning drip bowls

Wash in hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry while still warm. 
Hard to remove, burned-on soil can be removed by soaking 
the drip bowls for about 20 minutes in a lightly diluted liquid 
cleanser or a solution of ammonia and water (1/2 cup 
ammonia to 1 gallon of water). A nylon scrubber may be 
used after soaking. Do not use abrasive cleaners or steel 
wool, they will scratch the surface. Always rinse with clean 
water and polish dry with a soft cloth.

To replace drip bowls and surface elements:

1.

Slide the terminal end on the element through the 
opening in the drip bowl.

2.

Align the element support to rest on the rim inside the 
drip bowl. If your drip bowl is equipped with a hold-down 
clip, align the element support opposite the terminal end 
with the slot in the hold-down clip, and snap into place.

3.

After the element is positioned in the drip bowl, line up 
the terminal end with the terminal plug as shown.

4.

Hold the surface element and drip bowl together as 
level as possible and firmly push the terminal end into 
the terminal plug. Make sure element terminal is seated 
properly into terminal plug. Make sure the surface 
element is level to reduce the hazard of cookware 
sliding off the element.

Aluminum Foil and Utensils

Never cover any slots, holes, or passages in the oven 
bottom or cover an entire oven rack with materials 
such as aluminum foil. Aluminum foil linings may trap 
heat, causing a fire hazard.

Protective Liners — Do not use aluminum foil to line 
the oven bottom. Improper installation of these liners 
may result in risk of electric shock or fire.

Aluminum foil - Use of aluminum foil on a hot cooktop 
can damage the cooktop. Do not use thin aluminum 
cooking utensils or allow aluminum foil to touch the 
surface elements under any circumstances.

Aluminum utensils - The melting point of aluminum is 
much lower than that of other metals. Care must be 
taken when aluminum pots or pans are used on the 
cooktop. If aluminum pans are allowed to boil dry 
when using the cooktop, not only will the utensil be 
damaged or destroyed, but it may fuse to or perma-
nently damage the coil or cooktop.
