Cleaning the glass cooktop.
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 around the edge of the glass,
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.
Normal Cleaning
Use only a recommended cleaning cream,
such as Cerama Brite or another cooktop
cleaning cream, 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…
Allow the cooktop to cool.
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.
Be sure to use a new sharp razor scraper. Do not use
a dull or nicked blade.
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.

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.
Turn off all surface units affected by
the spillover. Remove hot pans.
Wearing an oven mitt, hold the razor
scraper at a 30° angle to the cooktop.
Scrape the hot spill to a cool area
outside the surface unit.
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.
Using a razor scraper will not
damage the surface if the 30° angle
is maintained.
