COOKTOP CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to maintaining your ceramic glass cooktop
Cookware (cast iron, metal, ceramic or glass) with rough bottoms can mark or scratch the
cooktop surface. Do not slide anything metal or glass across the cooktop. Do not use your
cooktop as a cutting board or work surface in the kitchen. Do not cook foods directly on the
cooktop surface without a pan. Do not drop heavy or hard objects on the glass cooktop, they
may cause it to crack or break.

WARNING WARNING WARNING
WARNING WARNING
DO NOT use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. The fumes can be hazardous to your health, and
can chemically damage the ceramic-glass surface.
Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended
Cleaning Creme to the ceramic surface. A sample of that cleaning creme
is supplied with your cooktop and it is available in most hardware stores.
Clean and buff with a paper towel. This will make cleaning easier when
soiled from cooking. The special cooktop cleaning cream leaves a
protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.
Sliding aluminum or copper clad bottom pans on the cooktop can cause
metal markings on the cooktop surface. These marks should be removed
immediately after the cooktop has cooled using the cooktop cleaning
cream. Metal marks can become permanent if not removed prior to future
use.
For light to moderate soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to the cooktop.
Use a paper towel to clean the entire cooktop surface. Make sure the
cooktop is cleaned thoroughly, leaving no residue. Do not use the towel
you use to clean the cooktop for any other purpose.
For heavy, burned on soil:
First, clean the surface as described above. Then, if soils remain, carefully
scrape soils with a metal razor blade scraper, holding scraper at a 30
degree angle to the surface. Remove loosened soils with cooktop cleaning
cream and buff surface clean.
