Before Using Cooktop

All products are wiped clean with solvents at the factory to remove any visible signs of dirt, oil, and grease which may have
remained from the manufacturing process. Clean your glass top before the fi rst time you use it. A thorough cleaning with
a glass top cleaner is recommended.
Cooking Utensils
Each cook has his or her own preference for the particular cooking
utensils that are most appropriate for the type of cooking being done.Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic,
earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for glass cooktop use without breaking due to the sudden change in
temperature. This is a matter of personal choice. As with any cookware, yours should be in good condition and free from
excessive dents on the bottom to provide maximum performance and convenience.
