Cleaning the Glass Cooktop (Cont.)
Metal Marks and Scratches
1. Be careful not to slide pots and pans across your
cooktop. It will leave metal markings on the cooktop
surface.
These marks are removable using the CERAMA
BRYTE Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner with the CERAMA
®
BRYTE ® Cleaning Pad for Ceramic Cooktops.
Cooktop Seal
To clean the cooktop seal around the edges of the glass,
lay a wet cloth on it for a few minutes, then wipe clean
with nonabrasive cleaners.
Damage from Sugary Spills and Melted Plastic
Special care should be taken when removing hot substances to avoid permanent damage of the glass surface.
Sugary spillovers (such as jellies, fudge, candy, syrups) or melted plastics can cause pitting of the surface of your
cooktop (not covered by the warranty) unless the spill is removed while still hot. Special care should be taken when
removing hot substances.
Be sure to use a new, sharp razor scraper.
Do not use a dull or nicked blade.
1. Turn off all surface units. Remove hot pans.
2. Wearing an oven mitt:
a. Use a single-edge razor blade scraper (CERAMA
BRYTE ® Ceramic Cooktop Scraper) to move the
spill to a cool area on the cooktop.
b. Remove the spill with paper towels.
Maintenance

Do not lift the door by the handle.
To remove the door:

2. Pull the hinge locks down toward the door frame, to
the unlocked position. A tool, such as a small flat-
blade screwdriver, may be required.
3. Firmly grasp both sides of the door at the top.

Removal position
2. If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum or copper
are allowed to boil dry, the overlay may leave black
discoloration on the cooktop.
This should be removed immediately before heating
again or the discoloration may be permanent.
NOTE: Carefully check the bottom of pans for roughness
that would scratch the cooktop.
3. Any remaining spillover should be left until the surface
of the cooktop has cooled.
4. Don't use the surface units again until all of the
residue has been completely removed.
NOTE: If pitting or indentation in the glass surface has
already occurred, the cooktop glass will have to be
replaced. In this case, service will be necessary.
To replace the door:
1. Firmly grasp both sides of the door at the top.
2. Starting on the left side, with the door at the same
angle as the removal position, seat the indentation of
the hinge arm into the bottom edge of the hinge slot.
The notch in the hinge arm must be fully seated into
the bottom of the slot. Repeat for right side.
3. Fully open the door. If the door will not fully open, the
indentation is not seated correctly in the bottom edge
of the slot.
4. Push the hinge locks up against the front frame of the
oven cavity, to the locked position.
5. Close the oven door.
