Cooktop Care Chart
TYPE OF SOIL
Failure to remove these soils immediately can
permanently damage the surface.
•
Remove pan and turn off the element.
• Wearing an oven mitt, hold scraper at 30 o
angle, using care not to gouge or scratch
the glass. Push soil off the heated area.
• After the surface has cooled, remove the
residue and apply the Cooktop Cleaning
Creme.
• Soften by laying a damp paper towel or
sponge on top of soil for about 30 minutes.
• Use a plastic scrubber and Cooktop Cleaning
Creme
or use the razor blade scraper. Rinse
and dry.
• Use a soapy sponge or cloth to remove
grease; rinse thoroughly and dry. Apply
Cooktop Cleaning Creme.
• Pans with aluminum, copper or stainless
steel bases may leave marks. Treat
immediately, after surface has cooled, with
the Cooktop Cleaning Creme. If this does
not remove the metal marks, try a mild
abrasive (Bon Ami
® , Soft Scrub ® without
bleach) with a dampened paper towel.
Rinse and reapply creme.
Failure to remove metal marks before
the next heating makes removal very
difficult.
• The minerals in some water can be
transferred onto the surface and cause
stains. Use undiluted white vinegar, rinse
and dry. Recondition with Cooktop Cleaning
Creme.
• Apply Cleaning Creme before using to remove
sand like grains and grit such as salt and
seasoning.
• Can be reduced by using pans with bases that
are smooth, clean, and dry before use. Use
Cooktop Cleaning Creme daily on the cooktop.
POSSIBLE SOLUTION
Dry sugar, sugar syrup, milk or tomato spills. Melted
plastic film or foil. All these items REQUIRE IMMEDIATE
REMOVAL. Remove only these types of spills while the
surface is hot using the razor blade scraper.
Be sure to use a new, sharp razor in your scraper.
Burned-on food soil, dark streaks, and specks
Greasy spatters
Metal marks: Iridescent stain
Hard water spots
