Surface Elements and Drip Bowls
Surface elements can be unplugged and removed to make cleaning the drip pans
easier.The surface elements clean themselves when theyareturned on. Foodspilled
on a hot element will burn off. Food spilled on a cool element may be cleaned with
a damp clothiany remaining soil will burn off the next time the element is used.
Never immerse a surface element in water.

element and drip bowl together just enough to clearthe cooktop.
2. While holding the drip bowl and surface element, gently pull the terminal end
out from theterminal plug. Ifequipped, DO NOT removethe hold down clipfrom
the drip bowl.
To Clean Drip Bowls
Wash in hot, soapy water or in the dishwasher. Rinseand 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 1gallon of water). A nylon scrubber may be usedafter soaking.

rinsewith clean water and polish dry with a soft cloth.

the terminal plug asshown.
