Cleaning Recommendations for the Ceramic Glass Cooktop
Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are turned to
OFF
and the cooktop is COOL.
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.
For light to moderate soil:
Apply a few drops of CERAMA BRYTE® 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 CERAMA BRYTE® 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.
If soils remain, carefully scrape them 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.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
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.
Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:
These types of soils need be removed immediately if spilled or melted onto the ceramic cooktop surface. Permanent
damage (such as pitting of the cooktop surface) may occur if not removed
immediately
. After turning the surface elements
OFF, use a razor blade scraper or a metal spatula with a mitt and scrape the soil from the hot surface (as illustrated). Allow
the cooktop to cool, and use the same method for heavy or burned on soils.
Do not use the following on the ceramic glass cooktop:
• Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring pads, such as metal and some nylon
pads. They may scratch the cooktop, making it more diffi cult to clean.
• Do not use harsh cleaners, such as chlorine bleach, ammonia or oven cleaners, as
they may etch or discolor the cooktop.
• Do not use dirty sponges, cloths or paper towels, as they can leave soil or lint on
the cooktop which can burn and cause discoloration.
Special Caution for Aluminum Foil and Aluminum Cooking Utensils
• Aluminum
foil:
Use of aluminum foil will damage the cooktop. Do not use under any circumstances.
• Aluminum
utensils:
Since the melting point of aluminum is much lower than that of other metals, care must be taken
when aluminum pots or pans are used. Pans that boil dry may permanently damage cooktop by breaking, fusing to, or
marking it.
