General Cleaning
(continued)
^WARNING
When lowering the top,
grasp the sides with fingertips only.
Be careful not to pinch fingers. Also,
DO NOT drop or bend the rangetop
when raising or lowering. This could
damage the surface._______________
A WARNING
DO NOT turn the
burners on when the cooktop is
raised for cleaning. Be sure that the
top is completely lowered and
securely in place before turning on
the burners.
To Raise and Lower the Top for Cleaning
1. Remove burner grates and spillover bowls. Set aside.
2. Grasp the sides of the cooktop and then lift from the front.
3. Lift the top high enough to allow the support rods to snap into place.
The Lift-up rods will support the top in its raised position.
4. Clean underneath using hot, soapy water and a clean cloth; then, dry,
5. Lower the top gently by pushing back on each rod. This will release the
notched support. Hold the range top and slide the range top down into
the range frame.
To Remove and Replace Burners for Cleaning
Your model will have one of the two burners types shown below. Follow
the instructions that correspond with the burners on your range.
To Remove Burners
1. Remove shipping screws with a Phillips® Head screwdriver. See
illustration for screw locations.
2. Tilt the burner at the end closest to the support bar until the locator tab
is released (front burners tilt right, rear burners tilt left). Move it toward
the back of the range. This will separate it from the gas valve at the front
of the range.
To Replace Burners
1. Slide the burner tube over the gas valve at the front of the range (front
burners fit over the right valve, rear burners fit over the left valve on each
side of the range).
2. Tilt burner so that the locating tab will slide into the slot on the support
bar. Make sure burners are properly seated on support bar and are level.
3. Replace shipping screws if desired.
