Care And Cleaning; Cleaning The Cooktop - LG HN7413AG User's Manual & Installation Instructions

CLEANING THE COOKTOP

General cleaning for induction ceramic glass
cooking surfaces is considerably easier than
for cooking surfaces with radiant heating.
NOTE:
To prevent accidental activation of the controls, it
is recommended that you set the CHILD LOCK
feature before cleaning.
IMPORTANT:
• Cleaning agents must not come in contact with
the hot ceramic-glass surface. All cleaning
agents must be rinsed off thoroughly with
clean water.
• Do not use any aggressive cleaners such as
grill or oven sprays, coarse scouring cleansers,
or abrasive pan cleaners.
• Clean the ceramic-glass surface after each
use when it is warm to the touch or cold.
This will prevent spills from becoming burnt on.
Remove water marks, grease and discoloration
with a glass scraper and ceramic-glass
cleaner.
NOTE:
You can obtain glass scrapers and ceramic-
glass cleaners from your local hardware store.
GENERAL CLEANING
1 When it is cool, wipe the ceramic-glass
surface with a damp cloth and a small
amount of ceramic glass cleaner.
2
Wipe dry with a clean cloth.
3
Once a week, thoroughly clean the entire
ceramic-glass cooking surface with a
commercially available ceramic-glass
cleaner.
4
Then, wipe the ceramic-glass surface
using a clean, soft cloth dampened with
clean water, and polish dry with a clean
lint-free cloth.

REMOVING HEAVY SOIL
To remove food that has boiled over or stubborn
spills, use a glass scraper.
1 Hold the glass scraper at an angle of about
45° to the ceramic-glass surface.
2
Remove soiling by sliding the blade across
the area.
3
Use a ceramic glass cleaner as described in
GENERAL CLEANING.
PROBLEM SOILS
1 Remove sugar, melted plastic, aluminum foil,
or other meltable materials with a glass
scraper immediately and while still hot.
Failure to do so can cause permanent
damage to the cooktop surface. If the
Cooking Zone has already cooled down,
warm it up again.
IMPORTANT: There is a risk of burning yourself
when the glass scraper is used on a hot Cooking
Zone. Use care and wear an oven mitt.
2 Then clean the cooktop normally when it has
cooled down.
NOTE: Scratches or dark marks on the ceramic-
glass surface caused by a pan base with sharp
edges cannot be removed. However, they do not
impair the function of the cooktop.
