Page 16: Overheating Protection
Each burner is equipped with a temperature limiter. This limiter turns off the heating elements in the burner before the ceramic surface becomes too hot. Once the ceramic surface has cooled to a safe temperature, the heating elements will automatically turn back on. - Page 17 Your ceramic cooktop is made of an extremely hard and durable material. The surface is scratch resistant, not scratch proof. Avoid using cookware with ridged bottoms. Ridged pots with dirty or chipped enamel bottoms may scratch the cooktop if they are pulled across the ceramic surface.

Before cleaning allow the cooktop to cool. Wipe spills off using a damp sponge. Stubborn spills are best removed with a shielded scraper blade.
