COOKTOP CARE
General Cleaning
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and
the cooktop is cool. Always follow label instructions on cleaning
products.
Soap, water and a soft cloth or sponge are suggested first unless
otherwise noted.
CERAMIC GLASS
To avoid damage to ceramic glass, do not use steel wool,
abrasive powder cleansers, chlorine bleach, rust remover or
ammonia.
Always wipe with a clean, wet cloth or sponge and dry thoroughly
to avoid streaking and staining.
Cooktop Polishing Creme is recommended for regular use to help
avoid scratches, pitting and abrasions, and to condition the
cooktop. It may be ordered as an accessory. See “Assistance or
Service” to order.
A Cooktop Scraper is also recommended for stubborn soils, and
can be ordered as an accessory. See “Assistance or Service” to
order. The Cooktop Scraper uses razor blades. Store razor
blades out of the reach of children.
Cleaning Method:
Light to moderate soil
■ Paper towels or clean damp sponge
Sugary spills (jellies, candy, syrup)
■ Cooktop Scraper:
Scrape sugary spills while the cooktop is still warm. You may
want to wear oven mitts while doing so.
■ Cooktop Polishing Creme and clean damp paper towel:
Clean as soon as cooktop has cooled down. Rub creme into
surface with a damp paper towel or soft cloth. Continue
rubbing until white film disappears.
Heavy soil, dark streaks, specks and discoloration
■ Cooktop Polishing Creme or nonabrasive cleanser:
Rub product into soil with a damp paper towel or soft cloth.
Continue rubbing until white film disappears.
Burned-on soil
■ Cooktop Polishing Creme and Cooktop Scraper:
Rub creme into soil with damp paper towel. Hold scraper as
flat as possible on surface and scrape. Repeat for stubborn
spots. Polish entire cooktop with creme and paper towel.
Metal marks from aluminum and copper
■ Cooktop Polishing Creme:
Clean as soon as cooktop has cooled down. Rub creme into
surface with a damp paper towel or soft cloth. Continue
rubbing until white film disappears. The marks will not totally
disappear but after many cleanings become less noticeable.
Tiny scratches and abrasions
■ Cooktop Polishing Creme:
Rub creme into surface with a damp paper towel or soft
cloth. Continue rubbing until white film disappears. Scratches
and abrasions do not affect cooking performance and after
many cleanings become less noticeable.
