Component access and replacement Cooktop & Elements The procedure for servicing the smooth glass cooktop and surface elements is similar to other Electrolux manufactured ranges. The front of the cooktop can be lifted by removing the screws that secure it to the range chassis. (Photo A) Note: The exact quantity and position of the screws can vary between models. Remove Screws Once these screws have been removed slide the entire cooktop assembly forward approximately three inches to disengage the hinge tabs found on each side of the cooktop from the slot in the backguard assembly.
