How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power at the breaker immediately. Do not use any burners if the glass is cracked, as live parts may be exposed.

  • Avoid use: Do not operate the cooktop until the glass is replaced. Continued use can cause further breakage and electrical hazards.
  • Contain fragments: Carefully remove loose glass pieces with gloves and dispose of them safely. Do not cut yourself on sharp edges.
  • Order replacement top: Using the full model number, order the correct Danby replacement glass top. Glass tops are model-specific.
  • Replace assembly: Disconnect power, remove the cooktop from the counter or open the range top, transfer elements and brackets from the old glass to the new, and reassemble.
