BEFORE USING THE COOKTOP FOR THE FIRST TIME

BEFORE USING THE COOKTOP FOR THE FIRST TIME
• All products are wiped clean with solvents at the factory to remove any visible signs of dirt, oil,
and grease which may have remained from the manufacturing process.
• If present, remove all packing and literature from the cooktop surface.
• Clean your glass top before the first time you use it. A thorough cleaning with a glass top
cleaner is recommended. It only takes a minute and puts a clean, shiny coating on the glass top
before its initial use.
• There may be a slight odor during the first several uses: this is normal and will disappear.
• Optimum cooking result depends on the proper cookware being selected and used.
• The cooking surface will hold the heat and remain hot over 20 minutes after the elements have
been turned off.
• The glass ceramic cooking surface is a durable material resistant to impact but not unbreakable if
a pan or other object is dropped on it.
• Do not use aluminum foil directly on the glass; it will melt and damage the glass surface.
• Do not allow pans to boil dry. This can damage the pan, element and /or cooktop.
• Never cook food directly on the glass.
• Do not slide cookware across cooking surface it may scratch the glass
• Using cast iron cookware on the glass cooktop Is not recommended. Cast iron retains heat and
may result in cooktop damage.
