Care and Cleaning
Cleaning the Cooktop Surface
WARNING
• Unless specified otherwise) Before cleaning, verify that all cook
zones are safe to touch.
• To avoid dangerous fumes and cooktop damage, use only the
specified cleaners as instructed. Abrasive cleaners/scrubbers may
permanently damage the cooktop.
• When removing cooked-on spills, use only the included scraper or
a plastic spatula. Utilizing a knife, metal spatula, or other such tool
may damage the cooktop.
Cleaners To Avoid
• Chlorine-/ammonia-based glass cleaners
• Caustic cleaners (ex: oven cleaners)
• Abrasive pads (ex: metal or nylon scouring pads, Scotch Brite
and SOS pads, certain sponges)
• Powder/liquid cleansers containing chlorine bleach or
abrasive substances
• Flammable liquids (ex: paint thinner, turpentine, acetone,
rubbing alcohol; some of these may not harm the glass but
may pose health/injury risks).
Performing Special Cleaning Tasks
NOTE
Remove sugar, syrup, and tomato spills WHILE THE COOKTOP
SURFACE IS HOT. Use only a plastic spatula or the included
scraper. After scraping, let the cooking surface cool, then wipe
up the residue with a dry towel/sponge.
Using the Scraper to Clean Cooktop Spills
1. Remove the cookware, and via the main power button, turn
OFF the cooktop.
2. Holding the scraper at a slight angle WITH THE BLADE
ABSOLUTELY FLAT AGAINST THE SURFACE, push the spill/
residue out of the heated cook zone. (Do not let the corner of
the blade scratch/gouge the cooktop surface.)
3. Let the surface cool, and remove any residue.
4. Apply Dacor Cooktop Cleaning Creme per package
instructions. (See Using Dacor Cooktop Cleaning Creme.)
Removing Burned-On Food
1. Lay a moist cloth or paper towel over the soiled area for ½ hour.
2. Once the char/crust softens, wipe the area clean and dry.
3. Apply Dacor Cooktop Cleaning Creme to the cooktop. (See
Using Dacor Cooktop Cleaning Creme.)
Treating Metal Marks
Cookware occasionally leaves marks. If the cleaning creme does
not remove marks, try a mild cleanser (ex: Bon Ami).
1. Lightly dust the soiled area with cleanser, then gently scrub
the area with a wet dishcloth.
2. Once clean, wipe the area with a clean, wet dishcloth.
3. Dry the cooktop, and apply Dacor Cooktop Cleaning Creme.
(See Using Dacor Cooktop Cleaning Creme.)
NOTE
Magnetic stainless steel and porcelain-coated steel/iron pans are less
likely to leave marks than other cookware. Cast-iron pans are more
likely to mark the glass. Never slide cookware across the glass.
Removing Water Spots
1. Apply undiluted white vinegar to the affected area.
2. Wipe the area with clean water.
3. Dry the cooktop, and apply Dacor Cooktop Cleaning Creme.
(See Using Dacor Cooktop Cleaning Creme.)
About Scratches
Surface scratches are unsightly but will not hinder performance.
Scratches cannot be removed, so avoid them by using clean,
smooth cookware and removing gritty food spills quickly.
Keep the cooktop clean, and regularly apply Dacor Cooktop
Cleaning Creme. (See Using Dacor Cooktop Cleaning Creme.)
Using Dacor Cooktop Cleaning Creme
Regularly applying this creme to the cooktop protects the surface
and eases food/stain removal.
1. (When the cooktop is safe to touch) With a damp cloth, apply
±¼ tsp of cleaning creme to the glass.
2. With a clean, damp cloth, remove residual cleaning creme.
3. With a clean, dry cloth, wipe the cooktop completely dry.
