MAINTENANCE

MAINTENANCE

Cleaning the Glass-Ceramic 

Cooktop

CAUTION

 

Do not use scrub pads or abrasive cleaning 

pads. They may damage your cooktop surface.

 

For your safety, wear an oven mitt or pot 

holder while using a scraper on the hot cooking 

surface.

 

Read and follow all instructions and warnings 

on the cleaning cream label.

Use ceramic cooktop cleaner on the glass cooktop. 

Other creams may not be as effective or may scratch, 

damage or stain the cooktop surface.
To maintain and protect the surface of the glass 

cooktop, follow these steps:

1

Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean 

it with a ceramic cooktop cleaner. This helps 

protect the top and makes cleanup easier.

2

Use ceramic cooktop cleaner daily to help keep 

the cooktop looking new.

3

Shake the cleaning cream well. Apply a few 

drops of cleaner directly to the cooktop.

4

Use a paper towel to clean the entire cooktop 

surface.

5

Rinse with clear water and use a dry cloth or 

paper towel to remove all cleaning residue.

NOTE

Do not heat the cooktop until it has been cleaned 

thoroughly.

IMPORTANT

If any sugar or food containing sugar (preserves, 

ketchup, tomato sauce, jellies, fudge, candy, syrups, 

chocolate) spills, or plastic or foil melts on the 

cooktop, remove the molten material IMMEDIATELY 

with a metal razor scraper (it will not damage the 

decorated cooking surface) while the cooking surface 

is still hot to avoid the risk of damage to the  

glass-ceramic surface. For your safety, please use an 

oven mitt or pot holder while scraping the hot cooking 

surface.

Burned-On Residue

1

While the cooktop is still hot, remove any burnt 

on deposits or spilled food from the  

glass-ceramic cooking surface with a suitable 

metal razor scraper. (Similar to scraping paint 

off of a windowpane, it will not damage the 

decorated cooking surface.) Hold the scraper at 

an approximate 30° angle to the cooktop.

NOTE

 

Do not use a dull or nicked blade.

 

To prevent burns, wear an oven mitt or pot 

holder while using the metal scraper.

2

When the cooking surface has cooled down, 

apply a few dabs (about the size of a dime) of an 

approved cleaner in each burner area and work 

the cleaning cream over the cooktop surface 

with a damp paper towel.

NOTE
