Glass cooktop |
You know Fleury's in over her head from sentence number one... well, from her introduction, actually:
"Stoves with glass cook tops are popular accents in homes with high-end appliances. These cook tops are highly efficient and simple to clean. However, they are also fragile and easy to break. When a glass cook top breaks, it can be replaced so that the stove can be utilized."
What's wrong with that, you ask? Easy:
Unfortunately, Leaf didn't move Fleury's list of sources to Hunker, so we couldn't figure out what stove repair manual she was trying to reword. That makes no difference, however, because those instructions are downright useless! No stove has four screws holding on a glass top, and the instruction about being "careful not to shatter the glass by applying too much pressure as you unscrew" is, to put it bluntly, dirt stupid. Oh, yeah, and what are those "wires that are leading to the cook top" supposed to be for?
In the first place, Fleury doesn't answer the implied question of how to fix a crack in the glass (you can't, but she didn't say that). Second, Fleury confuses a cooktop with the top of a stove -- they're not the same thing. And third, those instructions pretty much make no sense (not to mention that most people can't "unplug [the] stove"!) If you wondered why Melanie is our Dumbass of the Day, well, now you know.

"Unscrew your cook top from the stove. There are typically four screws, one in each corner. Prop up the frame and disconnect the wires that are leading to the cook top. Be very careful not to shatter the glass by applying too much pressure as you unscrew. Gently pull the cook top out of the frame." |
