CARING FOR YOUR RANGE
C
LEANING THE CERAMIC GLASS COOKTOP
Your cooktop is designed for easy care. It has been prepolished at the factory for improved protection and
easier cleaning. Foods spilled directly on the cooktop will not burn off as on open-coil elements. Because of
this, you should keep the surface dust free and soil free before heating. Use the Cooktop Polishing Creme,
included with your range, to clean and maintain the cooktop.
