Cooktop Maintenance
Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to maintaining
your ceramic glass cooktop.
Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply a
ceramic cooktop cleaning cream (available in most
hardware, grocery, and department stores) to the ceramic
surface. Clean and buff with a clean paper towel. This will
make cleaning easier when soiled from cooking. Cooktop
cleaning creams leave a protective finish on the glass to
help prevent scratches and abrasions.
Sliding pans on the cooktop can cause metal markings on
the cooktop surface. These marks should be removed
immediately after the cooktop has cooled using cooktop
cleaning cream. Metal marks can become permanent if not
removed prior to future use.
Cookware with rough bottoms can mark or scratch the
cooktop surface.
Do not:
Slide anything metal or glass across the cooktop.
Use cookware with dirt or dirt build up on the bottom;
always use clean cookware.
Use your cooktop as a cutting board or work surface in
the kitchen.
Drop heavy or hard objects on the ceramic glass
cooktop; they may cause it to crack.
Figure 1: Cooktop care
Before cleaning any part of the appliance, be sure all
controls are turned off and the appliance is cool.
If ammonia or appliance cleaners are used, they must
be removed and the appliance must be thoroughly
rinsed before operating. Follow manufacturer's
instructions and provide adequate ventilation.
Figure 2: Use cleaners with caution
Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you
use an abrasive type cleaning pad. Only use cleaning
products that have been specifically designed for ceramic
glass cooktops.
