How to replace a ceramic glass top on your Caloric electric cooktop

• Shut off the house circuit breakers for the cooktop or unplug the cooktop to disconnect electrical power.
• Remove the screws from the brackets that hold the cooktop in the counter. Carefully lift the cooktop up and set it on the counter.
• Remove the screws that secure the glass top to the burner box. Lift the glass top up slightly and unplug the wire harness connection on the user interface controls. Lift the cooktop off of the burner box and discard it.
• Position the new glass top on the burner box and plug in the user interface control wire harness. Replace the screws to secure the glass top to the burner box.

Cleaning tips for the ceramic glass top on your Caloric electric cooktop

• Use the right cleaner. You probably got a bottle of cleaner with your range. This is the best cleaner to use and the one that the manufacturer recommends.
• Let the glass top cool, then scrape off spills. Gently scrape off burned-on crust from spills using a metal razor blade scraper. Use a new scraper or razor blade each time. Scraping the cooktop with an old razor can scratch the surface. Hold the blade at a 30-degree angle when scraping.
• Polish the cooktop. After removing burned-on crust, shake the bottle of cleaner and then pour some on the cooktop. Rub the surface vigorously using a sponge, soft cloth or paper towel. Don't use steel wool or an abrasive pad. That can scratch the glass. Once you're finished cleaning the cooktop, wipe off all the residue. Buff the cooktop with a paper towel to restore the shine so it looks brand new.
