To avoid damaging the cooktop, follow
these instructions:
l
Sugar spills and soils (such as jellies and
candy syrups) can cause pitting on the cooktop
if not removed while the ceramic surface is
still warm. Remove as soon as possible after
the spill occurs.
l
Do not use the cooktop as a cutting board.
l
Do not allow anything that may melt (such as
plastic or aluminum foil) to come in contact with
the surface while it is hot.
l
Do not use the ceramic cooktop to cook
popcorn that comes in prepackaged aluminum
containers. The container could leave alumi-
num marks on the cooktop that cannot be
removed completely.
l
Do not use steel wool, plastic cleaning pads,
abrasive powdered cleansers, chlorine bleach,
rust remover, ammonia, or glass cleaning
products with ammonia. These could damage
the cooktop surface.
Cleaning tips
l
Dropping heavy or hard objects on the cooktop
could crack it. Be careful with heavy skillets. Do
not store jars or cans above the cooktop.
What to use:
l
Cooktop Polishing Creme (included with
your range) with paper towel or clean, damp
sponge - This creme has been developed
especially for cleaning and protecting your
cooktop. When using, follow instructions on
container.
l
Razor scraper - Use to remove cooked-on
soils from your ceramic cooktop. Razor blades
will not scratch your cooktop. Store razor
blades out of reach of children.
Steps to follow:
1. Most spills can be wiped off easily using a
paper towel or clean, damp sponge as soon
as Hot Surface Indicator Light goes off.
2. Rub Cooktop Polishing Creme into cooked-on
soil using a paper towel. If some soil remains,
leave some creme on the spot(s) and follow
Step 3.
3. Carefully scrape spots with the razor scraper.
4. Finish by polishing entire cooktop with Cook-
top Polishing Creme and a paper towel.
Additional tips:
l
Remove dark streaks, specks, and discol-
oration with Cooktop Polishing Creme.
l
Remove metal marks (from copper or alumi-
num pans) with Cooktop Polishing Creme
before heating the cooktop again. If heated
before cleaning, metal marks may not come off.
l
Tiny scratches or abrasions do not affect
cooking. In time, these will become less visible
as a result of cleaning. To prevent scratches
and abrasions, use Cooktop Polishing Creme
regularly.
l
Nonabrasive cleanser with damp paper
towel or sponge can be used as an alternative
method for removing cooked-on soils. Always
rinse and dry your cooktop thoroughly after
using cleanser to prevent streaking or staining.
