It also has a wooden work surface which pulls out beyond the burners and can be folded down out of the way. I routinely lift each burner, pull it away from the friction contact it has with the electrical circuits and lift out the aluminum dry pans allowing me to clean underneath. My 400 has the two ovens above and two exhaust fans above the burners.

Just lift the edge of the burner opposite where the contact are and pull out. There's no fixed connection they just contact the electrical input by contact. Replacing them is a little trickier as you have to insert the contacts into their housings before lowering them back in place.
