CLEANING RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE CERAMIC GLASS
COOKTOP (CONTINUED)
IMPORTANT NOTE: Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you use
an abrasive type scratch pad. Only use cleaning products that have been specially
designed for ceramic glass cooktop.
Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:
These types of soils must 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 on previous page). 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
difficult 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 discoloration.
Special Caution for Aluminum Foil and Aluminum Cooking Utensils
• Aluminum foil - Use of aluminum foil will damage the cooktop. Do not use
thin aluminum cooking utensils or allow foil to touch the ceramic cooktop under ANY
circumstances.
• Aluminum utensils - The melting point of aluminum is much lower than that of other
metals. Care must be taken when aluminum pots or pans are used on the cooktop. If
allowed to boil dry, not only will the utensil be destroyed, but it may fuse to, break or mark
the ceramic glass surface, permanently damaging the cooktop surface.
CARE & CLEANING OF STAINLESS STEEL
Special care and cleaning are required for maintaining the appearance of stainless parts.
Please refer to the table provided at the beginning of the General Care & Cleaning section
