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 1/2"(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 just enough to clear the burner bowl.
2. Pull the coil element straight away from the receptacle.
lu
3. Lift out the burner bowl.
To Replace:
1. Line up openings in the burner bowl with the coil element
receptacle.
I REMEMBER: When range is in use or (on some models)
during the Self-Cleaning cycle, the entire cooktop area may
become hot.
NOTE: On self-cleaning models, the cooktop will not operate
when the range is in a self-cleaning mode.
2. Holding the coil element as level as possible, slowly push coil
element terminal into the receptacle.
3. When the terminal is pushed into the receptacle as far as it
will go, push down the edge of the coil element opposite the
receptacle.
When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface
cooking areas, elements or surface burners between batches.
This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.
• Center the canner on the grate or largest surface cooking
area or element. Canners should not extend more than
1/2"(1.3 cm) outside the cooking area.
• Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas, elements or
surface burners at the same time.
