with a ceramic cooktop cleaner. This helps protect the
top and makes cleanup easier.

the cooktop looking new.

Cleaning the Glass Cooktop
Metal Marks and Scratches`
1. Be careful not to slide pots and pans across your
cooktop. It will leave metal markings on the cooktop
surface.
These marks are removable using the ceramic
cooktop cleaner with the non-scratch cleaning pad for
ceramic cooktops.
2.
If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum or copper
are allowed to boil dry, the overlay may leave black
discoloration on the cooktop.
This should be removed immediately before heating
again or the discoloration may be permanent.
NOTE:
Carefully check the bottom of pans for roughness
that would scratch the cooktop.
