General Care & Cleaning
COOKTOP CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended Cleaning Creme to the
ceramic surface. It is available in most hardware stores. Clean and buff with a paper towel.
This will make cleaning easier when soiled from cooking. The special cooktop cleaning
cream leaves a protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.
Sliding aluminum or copper clad bottom pans on the cooktop can cause metal
markings on the cooktop surface. These marks should be removed immedi-
ately after the cooktop has cooled using the cooktop cleaning cream. Metal
marks can become permanent if not removed prior to future use.
Cookware (cast iron, metal, ceramic or glass) with rough bottoms can mark or
scratch the cooktop surface. Do not slide anything metal or glass across
the cooktop. Do not use your cooktop as a cutting board or work surface in the
kitchen. Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop surface without a pan. Do
not drop heavy or hard objects on the glass cooktop, they may cause it to
crack or break.
CLEANING RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE CERAMIC GLASS
COOKTOP
For light to moderate soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to the cooktop. Use a paper towel
to clean the entire cooktop surface. Make sure the cooktop is cleaned thoroughly, leaving no
residue. Do not use the towel you use to clean the cooktop for any other purpose.
For heavy, burned on soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to the cooktop. Rub the soiled area
using a non-abrasive plastic type no-scratch pad, applying pressure as needed. Do not use
the pad you use to clean the cooktop for any other purpose.
If soils remain, carefully scrape soils with a metal razor blade scraper, holding scraper at a
30 degree angle to the surface. Remove loosened soils with cooktop cleaning cream and
buff surface clean.
