What to use:

your cooktop with a paper towel or clean,
damp sponge. This creme has been
developed especially for cleaning and
polishing your cooktop. When using, follow
instructions on container.
• Razor scraper – Use to remove cooked-
on soils from your ceramic glass cooktop.
To avoid scratches, keep the razor blade
as flat against the cooktop as possible.
Store razor blades out of reach of
children.
• Do not use steel wool, plastic cleaning
pads, abrasive powdered cleansers,
chlorine bleach, rust remover, ammonia,
or glass cleaning products with ammonia.
These products could damage the cooktop
