Metal Marks and Scratches
1. Be careful not to slide pots and pans across your
cooktop. It will leave metal markings on the cooktop
surface.
These marks are removable using a ceramic cooktop
cleaner with a non-scratch cleaning pad for ceramic
cooktops.
2.
If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum or copper
are allowed to boil dry, the overlay may leave black
discoloration on the cooktop.
This should be removed immediately before heating
again or the discoloration may be permanent.
NOTE:
Carefully check the bottom of pans for roughness
that would scratch the cooktop.
3.
Be careful not to place aluminum baking sheets or
aluminum frozen entrée containers on a hot cooktop
surface. It will leave shiny dots or markings on the
cooktop surface. These markings are permanent and
cannot be cleaned off.
