Stubborn soiling is best removed with a shielded scraper blade.

Dry sugar, sugar syrup, milk or tomato spills. Melted plastic film or foil. All these items REQUIRE IMMEDIATE REMOVAL. Fail- ure to remove these immediately can permanently damage the surface.

Remove these types of spills while the surface is hot using a shielded scraper blade. Remove pan and turn off the element. Wearing an oven mitt, hold scraper at 30° angle, using care not to gouge or scratch the glass. Push soil off the heated area. After the surface has cooled, remove the residue and apply the glass ceramic cook-top cleaner. Use caution when handling the shielded scraper blade. Use caution while the surface is still hot.

DO NOT

Do not use any kind of cleaner on the glass while the surface is hot. The resulting fumes can be hazardous to your health. Heating the cleaner can chemically attack and damage the surface.

Do not use a steam cleaner to clean this appliance. Steam could penetrate electrical components and cause a short circuit. Pressurized steam could cause permanent damage to the sur- face and to components.

Do not use any sharp pointed objects which could damage the seal between the ceramic surface, the surrounding frame and the counter-top.

Do not use glass cleaners which contain ammonia or chlorine bleach. These ingredients may damage or permanently stain the cook-top. Do not use caustic or abrasive cleaners Do not use metal scouring pads and scrub sponges.
