Cleaning the glass cooktop.

42

Clean the glass surface with cleaning cream before you use the cooktop for
the first time. Also, clean the glass surface after each use. This helps
protect the top and makes clean-up easier.

To clean the cooktop seal, 

let a wet cloth rest on it for a few minutes, then

wipe clean. Use a mild detergent if needed. 

Do not use a knife or any sharp object on the seal because it will cut or
damage it.

Use only a recommended cleaning cream, such as Cerama Brite or
the Cooktop Cleaning Creme, on the glass cooktop.

To maintain and protect the surface of your new glass cooktop
follow these steps.

Before you use the cooktop for the first time, clean it with cleaning
cream. This helps protect the top and makes clean-up easier.

Clean the surface with the cleaning cream after each use.

Rub a few drops (less is better) of the cleaning cream onto soiled
area using a damp paper towel. Buff with a dry paper towel until
all soil and cream are removed. 

For heavy, burned-on soil:

Apply a few drops of the cleaning cream to the 
(cool) soiled area.

Using a damp paper towel, rub the cream into the burned-on
area. As with any burned-on spill, this may require some effort.

Carefully scrape soil with razor scraper. Hold scraper at a 
30° angle against the glass cooktop.

If any soil remains, repeat the steps listed above. For additional
protection, after all soil has been removed, polish the entire
surface with the cleaning cream.

Buff with a dry paper towel.
