CLEAN CARE TECHNIQUES (FOR MOST SOILS)
1. Clean the surface when it is completely cool,
with the exception of spills containing milk, dry
sugar, sugar syrup, or tomato described in the
Special Care Techniques on the following page.
These must be removed IMMEDIATELY.
CAUTION:
DO NOT use any kind of cleaner on
the glass while the cooktop is hot. The resulting
fumes can be hazardous to your health. The heated
cleaner can chemically attack and damage the
cooktop.
2. Cooktop surface, glass-ceramic: Wipe off greasy
spatters with a clean, damp sponge, cloth or paper
towel. Rinse and dry. Use vinegar if smudge
remains. Apply Cleaning Creme as directed above.
Rub on the cooktop surface. When dry, buff surface
with clean paper towel or cloth.
3. Knobs, plastic: Pull up to remove. Wipe with hot
soapy sponge; rinse and dry. Do not soak.

CLEANERS
TO AVOID ON THE GLASS CERAMIC
SURFACE AND METAL TRIM FRAME: Use of these
types of cleaners may cause discoloration and permanent
damage.
Glass cleaners: Do not use glass cleaners containing
ammonia or chlorine bleach. These ingredients may
etch or stain the cooktop.
Caustic cleaners: Oven cleaners such as Easy Off
®
or Dow
®
may etch the cooktop surface.
Abrasive cleaners: Metal scouring pads such as
Chore Girl
®
and Kurly Kate
®
and scrub sponges
such as Scotch Brite
®
can scratch the cooktop and
leave metal marks.
Soap-filled scouring pads such as Rescue
®
or S.O.S.
®
can scratch the cooktop surface.
Powdery cleaners that contain chlorine bleach can
stain the cooktop.
Cleaners that are flammable may be dangerous
Care is easy on a daily basis when preventative steps
are taken. Apply only a small amount of Cooktop
Cleaning Creme
®
to a clean paper towel or cloth.
This provides a protective film that makes it easy to
remove water spots or food spatters.
The temperature of the cooking surface during use
reduces the protective qualities of the Cleaning Creme,
so it must be re-applied regularly to maintain the
appearance of the cooktop.
