Cleaning the Glass-Ceramic Cooktop
Save on Clean-up Time
• Make sure bottomsof cookware utensils are always clean and dry. Before using
utensils on the glass-ceramic cooktop for the first time, and periodically as
needed, clean the bottoms with scouring pads or other cleansers. Rinse and dry
thoroughly. Soil from the utensil bottom can be transferred to the cooktop
surface.
• Make it apractice to wipe cooktop surface with a clean damp cloth or paper towel
before each use; dry thoroughly. Invisible spatters, dust specks, cleansers or
water can cause stains that appear after unit is heated. A sponge or dishcloth
which is not clean will leave film and soil laden detergent water which may cause
stains on surface after area is heated.
• Use correct heat settings and cookware large enough to hold food and liquid to
prevent boil overs and spattering.
• When frying, use a spatter shield to reduce spattering.
• If a bad spillover occurs while cooking, spills may be cleaned from the cooktop
while it is hot to prevent a tough cleaning chore later. Using extreme care, wipe
with aclean damp towel. Be careful to avoid burns from steam or hand touching
the hot cooktop.
IMPORTANT
• Do not use the glass-ceramic cooktop as a cutting board.
• Do not use or place plastic items anywhere on the cooktop.
• Do not use cartridge in the event a break has occured. Call an authorized Jenn-Air
Service Contractor.
• Do not slide or scrape aluminum utensils across the cooktop since this may cause
marks or pits in surface which are permanent.
• Do not slide heavy metal utensils across surface since these may scratch the surface.
• Do not cook foods directly on cooktop.
• Do not use aluminum foil, disposable foil pans (such as those packaged with popcorn)
or foil wrapped food bundles on cooktop since this can permanently mark the surface.
• Do not allow pan to boil dry as this could damage the cooktop and the pan.
• Do not use trivets or any kind of heat retarding pad under cooking utensils.
