Cooktop Care and Maintenance
Special Care Chart
POSSIBLE SOLUTION
Failure to remove these soils immediately can
Permanently damage the surface.
Remove pan and turn off the element.
Wearing an oven mitt, angle the scraper slightly,
using care not to gouge or scratch the glass. Push
soil off the heated area.
After the surface has cooled, remove the residue
and apply the Cooktop Cleaning Creme® .
Soften by laying a damp paper towel or sponge on
top of soil for about 30 minutes.
Use a plastic scrubber and Cooktop Cleaning
Creme® or use the razor blade scraper. Rinse and
dry.
Use a soapy sponge or cloth to remove grease;
rinse thoroughly and dry. Apply Cooktop Cleaning
Creme®.
Pans with aluminum, copper or stainless steel
bases may leave marks. Treat immediately, after
surface has cooled, with the Cooktop Cleaning
Creme® . If this does not remove the metal marks,
try a mild abrasive ( Bon Ami®, Soft Scrub®
without bleach) with a dampened paper towel;
rinse; and reapply cream.
Failure to remove metal marks before the next
heating makes removal very difficult.
The minerals in some water can be transferred on
the surface and cause stains. Use undiluted white
vinegar, rinse and dry. Recondition with Cooktop
Cleaning Creme®.
Remove boilovers and stains, before using the
cooktop again.
Apply cleaning cream before using to remove
sand-like grains and grit such as salt and
seasoning.
Can be reduced by using pans with bases
that smooth, clean, and dry before use. Use
recommended Cooktop Cleaning Creme® daily
on the cooktop.
BE CAREFUL: Diamond (and other gemstone)
rings will scratch the surface.
