recommendations for the
Ceramic Glass Cooktop
Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended CookTop_ Cleaning Creme (P/N 22-40079) to the
ceramic surface. Clean and buff with a paper towel or a 3M Scotch-Brite_ Blue Multi-Purpose No Scratch Scrub Sponge
(see instructions below). This will make cleaning easier when soiled from cooking. The special cooktop cleaning cream
leaves a protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.
Sliding aluminum or copper clad bottom pans on the cooktop can cause metal
markings on the cooktop surface. These marks should be removed immediately
after the cooktop has cooled using the cooktop cleaning cream. Metal marks can
become permanent if not removed prior to future use.
Cookware (cast iron, metal, ceramic or glass) with rough bottoms can mark or
scratch the cooktop surface. Do not slide anything metal or glass across the r'n
cooktop. Do not use your cooktop as a cutting board or work surface in the Z
kitchen. Do not.cook foods directly on the cookt0_ surface without a pan. Do not
drop heavy or hard objects on the glass cooktop, they may cause it to crack.

Cleaning Recommendations for the Ceramic Glass Cooktop
Before cleaningthe Ce0ktop, be sure the controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL. I
DO NOT use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. The fumes can be hazardous to your health, and can
chemically damage the ceramic-glass surface.
For light to moderate soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTop_ Cleaning C_eme directly to the cooktop. Use a paper towel or a 3M Scotch-Bdte_ Blue
Multi-Purpose No Scratch Scrub Sponge toclean the entire cooktop surface. Make sure thecooktop is cleaned thoroughly,
leaving no residue.
For heavy, burned on soil:
Apply a few drops ofCookTol:_ Cleaning Creme directlyto the soiled area. Rub the
soiled area using a 3M Scotch-Brite_ Blue Multi-Purpose No Scratch Scrub Sponge,
applying pressure as needed. Do not usethe sponge you use toclean the cooktop for
any other purpose.
If soils remain, carefully scrape soils with a metal razor blade scraper, holding scraper
at a 30 degree angle to the surface. Remove loosened soils with cooktop cleaning
cream andbuff surface clean.
Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may cccu_'_ifyou use any scrub
pad other than a 3M Scotch-Bdte_ Blue Multi-Purpose No Scratch Scrub Sponge.
Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:
These types ofsoils need be removed immediately if spilledor melted onto the ceramic
cooktop surface. Permanent damage (such as pittingof the cooktop surface) may occur
if not removed Immediately. After fuming the surface elements OFF, use a razor blade
scraper or a metal spatula with a mitt and scrape the soil from the hot surface (as
illustrated). Allow the cooktop to cool, and use the same methodfor heavy or burned on
soils.
