• Pop Rivets, Floating Liner - after 2002: The bottom return pan liner has
been held in place since 2002 with special pop rivets. The pop rivets are spe-
cially installed to allow the liner to float. The bottom metal pan is slotted to
allow the liner to float, expand, and contract with temperature changes. The
pop rivets are installed with special equipment at the factory. See Figure 7.25.
