Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to
maintaining your ceramic glass cooktop.
Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you
use an abrasive cleaning pad. Only use cleaning products
that have been specifically designed for cooktops.
To maintain the cooktop appearance :
• Never slide anything metal or glass across the cooktop
surface.
• DO NOT use cookware with dirt or dirt build up on
bottoms. Replace with clean flat bottom cookware before
using on the cooktop.
• Never use the ceramic cooktop as a cutting board or
work surface in the kitchen.
• Never cook foods directly on the cooktop surface.
• DO NOT drop heavy or hard objects on the ceramic glass
cooktop, this may cause it to crack.
For light to moderate soil- Apply a few drops of glass-
ceramic cooktop cleaner directly to the cooktop. Use a
paper towel or use a non-abrasive plastic type no-scratch
cleaning pad to clean the entire cooktop surface. Make sure
the cooktop is cleaned thoroughly, leaving no residue.
For heavy, burned on soil- Apply a few drops of glass-
ceramic cooktop cleaner directly to the soiled area. Rub the
soiled area using a non-abrasive plastic type no-scratch
cleaning pad, applying pressure as needed. Do not use the
pad you use to clean the cooktop for any other purpose.
If soils remain, carefully scrape soils with a metal razor
blade scraper, holding scraper at a 30 degree angle to the
surface. Remove loosened soils with cooktop cleaning
cream and buff surface clean.
Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply some of
the glass-ceramic cooktop cleaner supplied with your new
appliance. Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or no-scratch
cleaning pad. This will make cleaning easier when soiled
from cooking. The special cooktop cleaning cream leaves a
protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and
abrasions.
Sliding aluminum or copper clad bottom pans on the
cooktop can leave metal markings on the surface. These
marks should be removed immediately after the cooktop
has cooled using the cooktop cleaning cream. Metal marks
can become permanent if not removed prior to future use.
Cookware (cast iron, metal, ceramic or glass) with rough or
dirty bottoms can mark or scratch the cooktop surface.
To avoid possible burns, be sure the surface controls are
turned OFF and the cooktop is cool before cleaning
the cooktop.

Removing plastic or foods with a high sugar content:
These types of soils need be removed immediately if spilled
or melted onto the ceramic cooktop surface. Permanent
damage (such as pitting of the cooktop surface) may occur
if not removed immediately. After turning the surface
elements OFF, use a razor blade scraper or a metal spatula
with a mitt and scrape the soil from the hot surface (as
illustrated). Allow the cooktop to cool, and use the same
method for heavy or burned on soils.

DO NOT use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop.
