Caring for your Cooktop
Coil elements and reflector bowls (cont.)
2. Line openings in the reflector bowl up with the coil element receptacle. 4. When the terminal is pushed into the receptacle as far as it will go, push down the edge of the coil element opposite the receptacle.
3. Hold the coil element as level as possible with the terminal just started into the receptacle. Push the coil element terminal into the receptacle.
NOTE: Reflector bowls reflect heat back to the cookware on the coil elements. They also help catch spills. When they are kept clean, they reflect heat better and look new longer. If a reflector bowl changes color, some of your cookware may not be flat enough, or some may be too large for the coil element. In either case, some of the heat that is meant to go into or around cookware goes down and heats the reflector bowl. This extra heat can cause it to change color.
