Cleaning and maintenance
Maintenance
This appliance requires no maintenance other than daily
cleaning. For best results, apply cooktop cleaning cream
daily.
Greasy spatters
Use a soapy sponge or cloth
to remove grease; rinse thor-
oughly and dry. Apply glass
ceramic cooktop cleaner.
Metal marks: Iridescent
stains
Pans with aluminum, copper
or stainless steel bases may
leave marks. Treat immedi-
ately after surface has cooled
with glass ceramic cooktop
cleaner. If this does not
remove the marks, try a mild
abrasive (Bon Ami®, Soft
Scrub® without bleach) with a
damp paper towel. Rinse and
reapply glass ceramic cook-
top cleaner. Failure to remove
metal marks before the next
heating makes removal very
difficult.
Hard water spots:
Hot cooking liquids
dripped on surface
Minerals in some water can be
transferred onto the surface
and cause stains. Use undi-
luted white vinegar, rinse and
dry. Recondition with glass
ceramic cooktop cleaner.
Remove boilovers and stains
before using the cooktop
again.
Surface scratches:
Small scratches are
common and do not
affect cooking. They
become smoother and
less noticeable with
daily use of the glass
ceramic cooktop
cleaner.
Apply glass ceramic cooktop
cleaner before using to
remove sand-like grains and
grit such as salt and season-
ing. Scratches can be
reduced by using pans with
bases that are smooth, clean,
and dry before use. Use rec-
ommended glass ceramic
cooktop cleaner daily.
NOTICE
Avoid contact with surface by
jewelry, wrist watches and me-
tallic utensils. These can
scratch the surface. Do not
stack kitchen utensils or dish-
ware on the appliance.
