Care & Cleaning
Do not use the following
on the cooktop
(Figure 42):
Do not use abrasive
cleaners
and scouring
pads, such as
metal and some nylon pads. They may scratch
the cooktop,
making
it more difficult
to clean.
Do not use harsh cleaners,
such as chlorine
bleach,
ammonia
or oven cleaners,
as they may etch or discolor
the
cooktop.
Do not use dirty
sponges,
cloths
or paper
towels, as they
can leave soil or lint on the cooktop
which
can burn and
cause discoloration.
Important
note:
Damage
to the ceramic
glass cooktop
may occur
if you use an
abrasive
type cleaning
pad.
Only
use cleaning
products
that
have been specifically
designed

information
about
cleaning
specific
parts of the range.
Before

cleaning
any part of the
range,
be sure all controls
are turned off and the range is cool.

the
oven. Provide adequate
ventilation.
Aluminum
foil and
utensils
Never cover any slots, holes, or passages
in the
oven bottom
or cover an entire
oven rack with
materials
such as
aluminum
foil. Aluminum
foil linings may trap heat, causing
a
fire hazard.
Protective
Liners --
Do not use aluminum
foil to
line the oven bottom.
Only use aluminum
foil as recommended
in this manual.
Improper
installation
of these liners may result in
risk of electric
shock, or fire.
Aluminum
foil - Use of aluminum
foil on a hot cooktop
can
damage
the cooktop.
Do not use thin aluminum
cooking
utensils or allow
aluminum
foil to touch the surface
elements
under any circumstances.
Aluminum
utensils - The melting
point
of aluminum
is much
lower than that of other
metals.
Care must be taken
when
aluminum
pots or pans are used on the cooktop.
If
aluminum
pans are allowed
to boil dry when using the
cooktop,
not only will the utensil be damaged
or destroyed,
but it may fuse to, break,
or mark the ceramic
glass surface,
permanently
damaging
the cooktop
surface.
