• Be sure appliance is off and all

parts are cool before handling or
cleaning. This is to avoid damage
and possible burns.

• The cooktop cartridge DOES NOT

need to be removed for normal clean-
ing.

• NEVER immerse cartridge in water to

clean. This can damage wiring. A drain
hole within the cartridge permits drain-
age of normal spills into the porcelain
basin pan where they will drain into the
grease container. The bottom of the
cartridge may be wiped clean with de-
tergent solution if necessary.
