CARE & CLEANING

Aluminum foil

Use of aluminum foil will damage the cooktop. Do not

use under any circumstances.

Aluminum utensils

Since the melting point of aluminum is much lower

than that of other metals, care must be taken when

aluminum pots or pans are used. Pans that boil dry

may permanently damage cooktop by breaking, fusing

to, or marking it.

CLEANING RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE

CERAMIC GLASS COOKTOP (CONTINUED)

Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:

These types of soils need be removed immediately if spilled

or melted onto the ceramic cooktop surface. Permanent

damage (such as pitting of the cooktop surface) may occur

if not removed immediately. After turning the surface

elements OFF, use a razor blade scraper or a metal spatula

with a mitt and scrape the soil from the hot surface (as

illustrated). Allow the cooktop to cool, and use the same

method for heavy or burned on soils.

Do not use the following on the ceramic glass

cooktop:

• Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring pads,

such as metal and some nylon pads. They may

scratch the cooktop, making it more diffi cult 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 Special

possible broken glass.

3. Replace bulb with a 40 Watt appliance bulb only.
