Cleaning the Cooktop
Precautions for Long Life and Good Appearance of the
Surface
• Regular, daily care using the glass ceramic cooktop
cleaner will protect the surface and make it easier to
remove food soil and water spots.
• The glass ceramic cooking surface is a durable
material resistant to impact but not unbreakable if a
pan or other object is dropped on it.
• Never cook food directly on the glass.
• Avoid placing a wok support ring, trivet or other metal
stand on glass surface.
• Do not use the glass surface as a cutting board.
• Do not slide cookware across the cooking surface; it
may scratch the glass.
• Do not place wet pans on the glass surface.
Before Use Care
Care is easy when preventative steps are taken. For
example, apply a small amount of glass ceramic cooktop
cleaner (packaged with range) on a daily basis. This
provides a protective film that makes it easy to remove
water spots or food spatters. The temperature of the
cooking surface reduces the protective qualities of this
cleaner. It must be reapplied before each use. Use a clean
cloth and apply glass ceramic cooktop cleaner before each
use to remove dust or metal marks that can occur on the
counter level surface between uses.
Daily Cleaning Techniques
1. Clean the surface when completely cool with the glass
ceramic cooktop cleaner.
Exception: Remove dry sugar, sugar syrup, tomato
products and milk immediately with the razor blade
scraper (See Cooktop Care Chart, next page).
2. Wipe off spatters with a clean, damp sponge or paper
towel. Rinse and dry. Use white vinegar if smudge
remains; rinse.
3. Apply a small amount of the glass ceramic cooktop
cleaner. When dry, buff surface with a clean paper
towel or cloth.
Using the Razor Blade Scraper
Use the scraper to remove dried or baked on foods. Hold
the scraper at a 30° angle. Move it over the soil to lift it off
of the cooktop. Finish with a clean, damp sponge or paper
towel. Apply white vinegar if smudge remains and rinse.
Cleaning the Control Knobs
1. Pull out and off to remove both knob. Wipe with hot,
soapy cloth, rinse and dry. Do not soak.
2. To replace, push knob straight onto shaft.
Do Not Use the Following Cleaners
• Glass cleaners which contain ammonia or chlorine
bleach. These ingredients may permanently etch or
stain the cooktop.
• Caustic Cleaners
• Oven cleaners such as Easy Off® may etch the
cooktop surface.
• Abrasive Cleaners
9 CAUTION
Do not use any cleaner on the glass while the
surface is hot. The resulting fumes can be
hazardous to your health. Heated cleaner can
chemically attack and damage surface. Use only the
razor blade scraper.
