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 45° 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.

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, 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.
Daily Cleaning
Use only a recommended cleaning
cream, such as Cerama Brite brand or
the Cooktop Cleaning Cream brand,
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.
NOTE: On models with a white glass cooktop,
any grease spatter or greasy residue from a dish
towel will burn on the cooktop when the surface
units are heated, leaving a brown stain. This can
be removed with the cooktop cleaning cream
and the razor scraper. To avoid this brown
discoloration, remove any spatter with paper
towels and cooktop cleaning cream before
heating any surface unit.
For Heavy, Burned-On Soil…
Allow the cooktop to cool.
Apply a few drops of cleaning
cream to the cool, soiled area.
Spread the cream across the entire
soiled area.
Hold scraper at a 45° angle against
the glass ceramic surface. This 45°
angle makes the scraping easier.
Scrape soil with the enclosed razor
scraper. Keep small amount of
cream on the soil as you scrape.
Heavily soiled areas may require
repeated applications of cream. It
will be necessary to press down on
the razor scraper while scraping the
soiled area with cooktop cream.
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.

Special Care for Sugary Spills
Using a razor scraper will not
damage the surface if the 45° angle
is maintained.
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.
