KitchenAid KECC562GBL2

Model # KECC562GBL2

The KECC562GBL2 belongs to KitchenAid’s US cooktop catalogue. KitchenAid’s published description of the KECC562GBL2 is a 36″ Ceramic-glass Electric Cooktop with Radiant Elements. No other specification for it survives in the sources used here. It is recorded on KitchenAid’s US product site in March 2000, and the end of its catalogue run is simply not documented in what was recovered.

The string published here is KECC562GBL2, exactly as KitchenAid printed it. The bare KECC562GBL was not itself seen in any source used for this page, so it is not offered here as a model number in its own right. A KECC562GBL2 still in a kitchen today has twenty-odd years behind it, and that age shows first in the switches, the element or burner connections and the control knobs. Whether the KECC562GBL2 is still in production is not established here, so its parts position is checked case by case before any work is quoted.

FAQ

KitchenAid KECC562GBL2 FAQ

The KECC562GBL2 label sits on the cooktop's liner, beneath the burners, in KitchenAid's own words. It is the adhesive label used across their major appliances and it carries both numbers. A photograph of the KECC562GBL2 label is the most reliable thing you can send us.

Not in itself. The diagnosis on a KECC562GBL2 is the same work either way, and the only practical consequence is that availability for a KECC562GBL2 part is confirmed before the job is priced rather than assumed.

No. A cracked glass top on a KECC562GBL2 is a safety matter rather than a cosmetic one, because the surface is what separates the elements from anything spilled. With the cooktop switched off at its supply, the KECC562GBL2 should stay out of use until the glass has been dealt with.
