CARE AND CLEANING OF THE GLASS COOKTOP
Normal daily use cleaning
Use only a ceramic cooktop cleaner or the cleaner supplied with this appliance on the glass
cooktop. Other creams may not be as effective.
By following these steps, you can maintain and protect the surface of your glass cooktop.
1. Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean it with a ceramic cooktop cleaner or the
included cleaner. This helps protect the top and makes cleanup easier.
2. Daily use of a ceramic cooktop cleaner or the included cleaner will help keep the cooktop
looking new.
3. Shake the cleaning cream well. Apply a few drops of cleaner directly to the cooktop.
4. Use a paper towel or a cleaning pad for ceramic cooktops to clean the entire cooktop surface.
5. Use a dry cloth or paper towel to remove all cleaning residue. No need to rinse.
WARNING
DAMAGE to your glass surface may occur if you use scrub pads other than those
recommended.
Removing burned-on residue
1. Allow the cooktop to cool.
2. Spread a few drops of ceramic cooktop cleaner
on the entire burned residue area.
3. Using the included cleaning pad for ceramic
cooktops, rub the residue area, applying pressure
as needed.
4. If any residue remains, repeat the steps listed
above as needed.
5. For additional protection, after all residue has been
removed, polish the entire surface with ceramic
cooktop cleaner and a paper towel.
Removing heavy, burned-on residue
1. Allow the cooktop to cool.
2. Use a single-edge razor-blade scraper at
approximately a 45° angle against the glass
surface and scrape the soil. It will be necessary to
apply pressure in order to remove the residue.
3. After scraping with the razor scraper, spread a few
drops of ceramic cooktop cleaner on the entire
burned residue area. Use the included cleaning
pad to remove any remaining residue. (Do not
scrape the seal.)
4. For additional protection, after all residue has
been removed, polish the entire surface with the
included cooktop cleaner and a paper towel.
