How to care for the glass cooktop on your LG electric range

• Use the recommended cookware. Use pots and pans with flat bottoms. Pots and pans made of stainless, copper and aluminum work best on most glass tops.
• Clean the cooktop after each use. Allow the cooktop to cool completely before cleaning. Use non-abrasive cleaners on the cooktop.
• Use a non-abrasive razor scraper to carefully remove burnt residue from the cooktop. Hold the scraper at a 30- to 45-degree angle when scraping off residue.

Frequently-replaced parts in LG electric ranges

• Electronic oven control board. The electronic oven control (EOC) board governs the timing and execution of oven functions in the range. It's usually attached to the control panel and often has a digital display clock mounted on the front of its housing.
• Outer oven door glass panel. The outer oven door glass panel is the heat-resistant piece of glass that forms the outer part of the oven door.
• Oven door hinges. The hinges on an oven door control the rate at which the door opens and also allow the door to stay open at an angle. Hinges are usually installed in pairs so the hinges and tension springs match, ensuring the smooth operation of the door.
• Oven door lock assembly. The oven door lock assembly is a safety mechanism that prevents accidental burns and oven fires by latching the door shut during self-cleaning. The door unlocks when the oven cools to a safe temperature (usually less than 200 degrees F). It's also used on ovens with the child lock-out feature. The assembly includes the lock and switches that detect whether the door is locked.
• Bake element. The bake element is at the bottom of an electric oven and provides heat for baking.
