Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance
Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended CookTop® Cleaning Creme (P/N 22-40079) to the
ceramic surface. Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or pad. 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 cooktop. Do not use your cooktop as a cutting
board or work surface in the kitchen. Do not cook foods directly on
the cooktop 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
[Ir_[_!['_Tj_! Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL.
_'IvAv-'I;t#II_[_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 Creme directly to the cooktop. Use a paper towel or a 3M Scotch-Brite® Blue
Multi-Purpose No Scratch Scrub Sponge toclean the entire cooktop surface. Make sure the cooktop is cleaned thoroughly,
leaving no residue.
For heavy, burned on soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to the soiled area. Rub the soiled area using a 3M Scotch-Bdte@
Blue Multi-Purpose No Scratch Scrub Sponge, applying pressure as needed. Do not use the sponge you use to clean 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 and buff surface clean.
[Ir_['_'_l'_jT_'_ Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you use any
scrub pad other than a 3M Scotch-Brite® Blue Multi-Purpose No Scratch Scrub
Sponge.
Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:
These types of soils need be removed immediately if spilled or melted onto the
ceramic cooktop surface. Permanent damage (such as pitting of the cooktop
surface) may occur if not removed immediately. After turning 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 method for heavy or burned on soils.
