Protecting The Cooktop Surface - Samsung NE58H9970WS/AA User Manual

PROTECTING THE COOKTOP SURFACE

Cleaning
• Clean the cooktop before using it for the first time.
• Clean your cooktop daily or after each use. This will keep your cooktop looking
good and can prevent damage.
• If a spillover occurs while cooking, immediately clean the spill while it is hot to
prevent a tough cleaning chore later. Using extreme care, wipe the spill with a
clean, dry towel.
• Do not allow spills to remain on the cooking area or the cooktop trim for a long
period of time.
• Do not use abrasive cleansing powders or scouring pads, which will scratch the
cooktop.
• Do not use chlorine bleach, ammonia, or other cleansers not specifically
recommended for use on a glass-ceramic surface.
Preventing marks and scratches
• Do not use glass cookware. It may scratch the cooktop.
• Do not place a trivet or wok ring between the cooktop and the pan. These items
can mark or scratch the cooktop.
• Make sure the cooktop and the pan bottom are clean.
• Do not slide metal pans across the cooktop.
Preventing stains
• Do not use a soiled dish cloth or sponge to clean the cooktop surface. A film will
remain, which may cause stains on the cooking surface after the area is heated.
• Continuously cooking on a soiled surface may result in a permanent stain.
Preventing other damage
• Do not allow plastic, sugar, or foods with high sugar content to melt onto the hot
cooktop. Should this happen, clean immediately.
• Do not let a pan boil dry as this will damage the cooktop and the pan.
• Do not use the cooktop as a work surface or cutting board.
• Do not cook food directly on the cooktop. Always cook food in the proper
cookware.
