BURNED-ON RESIDUE
To clean the glass-ceramic
Step. 1

deposits or spilled food
from your glass-ceramic
cooking surface with a
suitable metal razor
scraper (similar to scraping paint off of your
windowpanes in your home - it will not damage
the decorated cooking surface). Hold the scraper
at approximately a 30° angle to the cooktop.
NOTE: Do not use a dull or nicked blade. For
your safety, please wear an oven mitt potholder

clear water and wipe the
cooktop surface with a
clean, dry paper towel.
Important: If any sugar or food containing sugar
(preserves, ketchup, tomato sauce, jellies, fudge,
candy, syrups, chocolate, etc.), a plastic item or
kitchen foil accidentally melts on the hot surface
of your cooktop, remove the molten material
IMMEDIATELY with a metal razor scraper (it will
not damage the decorated cooking surface)
while the cooking surface is still hot to avoid
the risk of damage to the glass-ceramic surface.
For your safety please wear an oven mitt
potholder while cleaning the hot cooking
surface.
METAL MARKS AND SCRATCHES
Be careful not to slide pots and pans across
1
your cooktop. It will leave metal markings on
the cooktop surface. These marks are
removable using the Ceramic Cooktop
Cleaner with the Cleaning Pad for Ceramic
Cooktops.
If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum or
2
copper are allowed to boil dry, the overlay
may leave black discoloration on the
cooktop. This should be removed
immediately before heating again or the
discoloration may be permanent.
