J_JJ_i]J_J
Surface
elements
may appear
to have
cooled
after
they
have
been
turned
off.
The
surface

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.
Improper
installation of these liners may result in risk of electric
shock, or fire.
Surface
elements
may be unplugged
and removed
to maize
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.
To remove the surface elements and drip bowls:
1. Lift the edge of the drip bowl across from the terminal
end. Lift the surface element
and drip bowl together
just
enough to clear the cooktop.
2. While
holding
the drip bowl and surface
element,
gently
pull the terminal
end out from terminal
plug (See
Fig. 1).
Allow
element
support
to rest on
drip pan inside rim.
