Any changes in colour or glossy spots are not damage to
the cooktops. They do not affect the functionality of the
cooktop or the stability of the glass ceramic panel.
Changes in the colour of the cooktop are the result of
residue which has not been removed and has burnt on.
Glossy spots are the result of wear by the pan base,
especially if aluminium-based cookware or unsuitable
detergents are used. It is hard work to remove them.
