Care & Cleaning
Surface elements

may appear
to have
cooled
after they have been turned off. The surface
elements
may still be hot and burns may occur if touched
before they have cooled
sufficiently.
Protective liners m Do not use aluminum
foil to line surface drip bowls, or reflector
pans. Only
use
aluminum
foil as recommended
in this manual.

of these liners may result in risk of electric
shock, or fire.
Surface
elements
may be unplugged
and removed
to make
cleaning
the drip pans easier. The surface
elements
clean
themselves
when they are turned on. Food spilled on a hot
element
will burn off. Food spilled
on a COOL element
may be cleaned
with a damp
cloth --
any remaining
soil
will burn off the next time the element
is used.
