Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning &
Maintenance
Consistent and proper cleaning is
essential to maintaining your Ceramic
glass cooktop.
Sliding aluminum or copper clad bottom pans on the
cooktop can cause metal markings on the cooktop
surface. These marks should be removed
immediately
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, or they may crack it.
CARE & CLEANING
For light to moderate soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly
to the cooktop. Use a paper towel or use a
non-
abrasive
plastic type
no-scratch
pad to clean the
entire cooktop surface. Make sure the cooktop is cleaned
thoroughly, leaving no residue.
For heavy, burned on soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly
to the soiled area. 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.
WARNING
DO NOT
use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop.
The fumes can be hazardous to your health, and can
chemically damage the ceramic glass surface.
CAUTION
Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are
turned to
OFF
and the cooktop is COOL.
IMPORTANT
Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you
use an abrasive type scratch pad. Only use cleaning
products that have been specifi cally designed for
ceramic glass cooktop.
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, then apply a few drops
of cleaning cream and buff surface clean.
Prior to using your cooktop for the fi rst
time, apply the recommended CERAMA
BRYTE® Cleaning Creme to the
ceramic surface. Clean and buff with
a non abrasive cloth or pad. This will
make cleaning easier when soiled from
cooking. The special cooktop cleaning
cream leaves a protective fi nish on the
glass to help prevent scratches and
abrasions.
