Cooktop cleaning
Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:
These types of soils need be removed immediately
if spilled or melted onto the ceramic cooktop
surface. Permanent damage (such as pitting of the
cooktop surface) may occur if not removed
immediately. After turning the surface elements
OFF, use a razor blade scraper or a metal spatula
with a mitt and scrape the soil from the hot surface
(as illustrated). Allow the cooktop to cool, and use
the same method for heavy or burned on soils.
IMPORTANT
Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur
if you use an abrasive type cleaning pad. Only
use cleaning products that have been specifically
designed for ceramic glass cooktops.
Do not use the following on the cooktop:
• Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring
pads, such as metal and some nylon pads.
They may scratch the cooktop, making it more
difficult to clean.
• Do not use harsh cleaners, such as chlorine
bleach, ammonia or oven cleaners, as they may
etch or discolor the cooktop.
• Do not use dirty sponges, cloths or paper
towels, as they can leave soil or lint on the
cooktop which can burn and cause
discoloration.

Care and Cleaning
Special caution for aluminum use on the
cooktop
• Aluminum Foil - Use of aluminum foil on a hot
cooktop will damage the ceramic cooktop. Do
not use thin aluminum cooking utensils or allow
aluminum foil to touch the ceramic cooktop
under ANY circumstances.
• Aluminum utensils - The melting point of
aluminum is much lower than that of other
metals. Care must be taken when aluminum
pots or pans are used on the cooktop. If allowed
to boil dry, not only will the utensil be
destroyed, but it may fuse to, break or mark the
ceramic glass surface, permanently damaging
the cooktop surface.
