household liquid dishwashing detergent, mineral oil
or cooking oil. Apply with a soft cloth and allow to
soak. Wipe dry and then apply an appliance polish

Glass Top
Wipe the glass cooktop clean after each use. Use an
all-purpose, non-abrasive cleaner. Do not use a dish
towel or sponge to wipe up the cooktop. They may
leave a film of detergent which can discolor your
cooktop when heated. If this happens, remove the film
with the recommended cleaner. We recommend that
you use paper towels or a clean cloth which is used
only for cleaning the cooktop.
For burned on spillover:
Remove excess soil with a razor scraper.
Wearing an oven mitt, hold the scraper at a 30°
angle to the cooktop and scrape off the soil. Be sure
to use a new, sharp razor scraper. Do not use a dull
or nicked blade.
NOTE:
QUsing a razor scraper will not damage the surface if
the 30° angle is maintained. Store the razor scraper
out of reach of children.
Scrub the glass cooktop with an all-purpose, non-
