Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance
Consistent and pr0per cleaning is essential to maintaining y0ur ceramic glass c00kt0p
Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended CookTopO Cleaning Creme to the ceramic surface
(on the web visit www.sears.com for replacement cooktop cleaner, item number 40079). Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or
no-scratch cleaning 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, because they may cause it to crack.

For light to moderate soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTopO Cleaning Creme directly to the cooktop. Use a paper towel or use a non-abrasive plastic
type no-scratch cleaning pad to clean 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 non-abrasive
plastic type no-scratch cleaning pad, applying pressure as needed. Do not use the pad 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.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you use an
abrasive type scratch pad. Only use cleaning products that have been specifically
designed for ceramic glass cooktop.
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.
