Coil Elements and Burner Bowls

Coil elements should be level for optimal cooking results. Burner
bowls, when clean, reflect heat back to the cookware. They also
help catch spills.
Cookware should not extend more than ½" (1.3 cm) over the coil
element. If cookware is uneven or too large, it can produce
excess heat, causing the burner bowl to change color. For more
information, see the "General Cleaning" section.
NOTE: Before removing or replacing coil elements and burner
bowls, make sure they are cool and the control knobs are in the
Off position.
To Remove:
1. Push in the edge of coil element toward the receptacle. Then
lift it enough to clear the burner bowl.
2. Pull the coil element straight away from the receptacle.
3. Lift out the burner bowl.
