To ensure even cooking performance, keep burner ports free of food soils/debris.
Cooktop - Never use oven cleaners, chlorine bleach, ammonia or glass cleaners with ammonia. NOTE: Call an authorized
Glass-Ceramic servicer if the glass-ceramic top should crack, break or if metal or aluminum foil should melt on the cooktop.
Allow the cooktop to cool before cleaning.
General – Clean cooktop after each use, with a damp paper towel and Cooktop Cleaning Creme* (Part No.
20000001)**. Then, buff with a clean dry cloth.
NOTE: Permanent stains will develop if soil is allowed to cook on by repeatedly using the cooktop when
soiled.
Heavy Soils or Metal Marks –– Dampen a “scratchless” or “never scratch” scrubber sponge. Apply
Cooktop Cleaning Creme* (Part No. 20000001)** and scrub to remove as much soil as possible. Apply a
thin layer of the creme over the soil, cover with a damp paper towel and let stand 30-45 minutes (2-3
hours for very heavy soil). Keep moist by covering the paper towel with plastic wrap. Scrub again, then buff
with a clean dry cloth.
NOTE: Only use a CLEAN, DAMP “scratchless” pad that is safe for non-stick cookware. The
glass will be damaged if the pad is not damp, if the pad is soiled, or if another type of pad
is used.

Cooktop Cleaning Creme*. Hold a razor blade scraper at 30° angle and scrape any remaining
soil. Then, clean as described above.

residue with razor blade scraper and Cooktop Cleaning Creme*.
