Glass Cooktop Cleaning

Halogen/Radiant Cooktop

Special care

Be sure to use a new sharp razor scraper. 

Do not use a dull or nicked blade.

Sugary spillovers (such as jellies, fudge, candy

syrups) or melted plastics can cause pitting of

the surface of your cooktop (not covered by the

warranty) unless the spill is removed while still

hot. 

Special care should be taken when removing

hot substances.

1. 

Turn off all surface units affected by the

spillover. Remove hot pans.

2.

Wearing an oven mitt, hold the razor scraper

at a 45° angle to the cooktop. Scrape the hot

spill to a cool area outside the surface unit. 

3.

With the spill in a cool area, use a dry paper

towel to remove any excess. Any spillover

remaining should be left until the surface of

the cooktop has cooled. Do not continue to

use the soiled surface unit until all of the

spillover has been removed. Follow the steps

under 

Heavy Burned-On Soil

to continue the

cleaning process.

NOTE: 

If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum,

copper or enamel are allowed to boil dry, the 
overlay may bond with the glass cooktop and 
leave a black discoloration. This should be 
removed immediately before heating again 
or the discoloration may be permanent.

Our testing shows that if you are cooking high sugar mixtures such as jelly or fudge and have a spillover,
permanent damage to the cooktop surface may occur unless the spillover is immediately removed.
