MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the Glass-Ceramic
Cooktop
CAUTION
• Do not use scrub pads or abrasive cleaning
pads. They may damage your cooktop surface.
• For your safety, wear an oven mitt or pot
holder while using a scraper on the hot cooking
surface.
Use ceramic cooktop cleaner on the glass cooktop.
Other creams may not be as effective or may scratch,
damage or stain the cooktop surface.
To maintain and protect the surface of the glass
cooktop, follow these steps:
1
Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean
it with a ceramic cooktop cleaner. This helps
protect the top and makes cleanup easier.
2
Use ceramic cooktop cleaner daily to help keep
the cooktop looking new.
3
Shake the cleaning cream well. Apply a few
drops of cleaner directly to the cooktop.
4
Use a paper towel to clean the entire cooktop
surface.
5
Rinse with clear water and use a dry cloth or
paper towel to remove all cleaning residue.
NOTE
Do not heat the cooktop until it has been cleaned
thoroughly.
IMPORTANT
If any sugar or food containing sugar (preserves,
ketchup, tomato sauce, jellies, fudge, candy, syrups,
chocolate) spills, or plastic or foil melts on the cooktop,
remove the molten material IMMEDIATELY with a
metal razor scraper (it will not damage the decorated
cooking surface) while the cooking surface is still
hot to avoid the risk of damage to the glass-ceramic
surface. For your safety, please use an oven mitt or
pot holder while scraping the hot cooking surface.
NOTE
Sugary spillovers(such as preserves, ketchup,
tomato sauce, jellies, fudge, candy, syrups,
chocolate) or melted plastics can cause pitting of
the surface of your cooktop.

Burned-On Residue
1
While the cooktop is still hot, remove any burnt
on deposits or spilled food from the
glass-ceramic cooking surface with a suitable
metal razor scraper. (Similar to scraping paint
off of a windowpane, it will not damage the
decorated cooking surface.) Hold the scraper at
an approximate 30° angle to the cooktop.
NOTE
• Do not use a dull or nicked blade.
• To prevent burns, wear an oven mitt or pot
holder while using the metal scraper.
2
When the cooking surface has cooled down,
apply a few dabs (about the size of a dime) of an
approved cleaner in each burner area and work
the cleaning cream over the cooktop surface
with a damp paper towel.
NOTE

3
Rinse with clean water and wipe the cooktop
surface with a clean, dry paper towel.
NOTE
If you don't have any ceramic cooktop cleaning
cream handy, you can use Easy-Off
Glass Top Cleaner Spray, BonAmi
(without bleach) to clean the cooktop. Rinse and
dry the cooktop after cleaning.
