times the cooktop is used. This is normal

fit the pan size to the element size.

C_eaning (see page 18 for more information}
, Before first use, clean the cooktop.
° Clean your cooktop daily or after each use. This will keep
your cooktop looking good and can prevent damage.
° If a spillover occurs while cooking, immediately clean the
spill from the cooking area while it is hot to prevent a tough
cleaning chore later. Using extreme care, wipe spill with a
clean dry towel
° Do not allow spills to remain on the cooking area or the
cooktop trim for a long period of time.
° Never use abrasive cleansing powders or scouring pads
which will scratch the cooktop.
° Never use chlorine bleach, ammonia or other cleansers not
specifically recommended for use on glass-ceramic.
