Metal Marks and Scratches
1. Be careful not to slide pots and pans across your
cooktop. It will leave metal markings on the cooktop
surface.
These marks are removable using a ceramic cooktop
cleaner with a non-scratch cleaning pad for ceramic
cooktops.
2. If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum or copper
are allowed to boil dry, the overlay may leave black
discoloration on the cooktop.

Sugary spillovers (such as jellies, fudge, candy, syrups) or melted plastics can cause pitting of the surface of your
cooktop (not covered by the warranty) unless the spill is removed while still hot. Special care should be taken when
removing hot substances.

a. U se a single-edge razor blade scraper to move
the spill to a cool area on the cooktop.
b. Remove the spill with paper towels.

with soap and water. Make sure the insides of the knobs
are dry before replacing. Replace the knobs in the Off
position to ensure proper placement.
