Maintaining your appliance
Care and cleaning of the glass cooktop
Normal daily use cleaning
Use only a ceramic cooktop cleaner. Other creams may not be as effective.
By following these steps, you can maintain and protect the surface of your glass
cooktop.
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.
Daily use of a ceramic cooktop cleaner will 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 or a cleaning pad for ceramic cooktops to clean the entire
cooktop surface.
5.
Use a dry cloth or paper towel to remove all cleaning residue. No need to
rinse.
WARNING
DAMAGE
to your glass surface may occur if you use scrub pads other than those
recommended.
Removing burned-on residue
1.
Allow the cooktop to cool.
2.
Spread a few drops of ceramic cooktop
cleaner on the entire burned residue
area.
3.
Using the cleaning pad for ceramic
cooktops, rub the residue area, applying
pressure as needed.
4.
If any residue remains, repeat the steps
listed above as needed.
5.
For additional protection, after all
residue has been removed, polish the
entire surface with ceramic cooktop
cleaner and a paper towel.
Oven racks
If the racks are left in the oven during a self-cleaning cycle, their color will turn
slightly blue and the finish will be dull. After the self-cleaning cycle is complete
and the oven has cooled, rub the sides of the racks with wax paper or a cloth
containing a small amount of oil. This will help the racks glide more easily in their
tracks.
