Caring for your cooktop
This cooktop is designed for easy care.
However, ceramic glass cooktops need to
be maintained differently than standard
electric coil elements. Foods spilled directly
on the cooktop will not burn off as on coil
elements. Because of this, the surface
should be dust-free and soil-free before
heating.
Your cooktop has been prepolished at the
factory for improved protection and clean-
ability. The Cooktop Polishing Creme
included with your range, a paper towel or a
sponge, and a single-edge razor blade in a
holder is all you need to clean your cooktop.
For proper cleaning methods, please review
the chart on page 15. Follow this chart after
each use to ensure top performance and to
preserve that uniquely elegant look.
NOTE:
Let cooktop cool before cleaning.
To avoid damaging the cooktop, follow
these instructions:
• Remove
sugar spills and soils from the
cooktop while the surface is still warm to
avoid pitting on the surface.
• Marks from sliding
metal pans on the
cooktop are difficult to remove completely,
Use cooktop polishing creme to clean
the area. Several applications may be
necessary.
• 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.
