How To Clean Your Glass Cooktop
To maximize the lifespan and maintain the great look of your smoothtop electric
cooktop or range, follow these quick and simple steps to keep the cooktop
surface clean:
 Make sure the cooktop surface has completely cooled down before cleaning
 Wipe the cooktop surface using a paper towel and a glass cooktop cleaning solution,
such as Weiman® Glass Cook Top Daily Cleaner
 For tougher spills and stains, apply a stronger solution (such as Weiman® Glass Cook
Top Heavy Duty Cleaner & Polish) to the soiled area, rubbing it into the residue until the
stain is completely removed from the surface
 After cleaning, always buff the surface with a paper towel or soft cloth to give your
cooktop an attractive shine.
Helpful Tips
 Clean the cooktop surface frequently to ensure a protective coating is applied. This helps
prevent scratches and abrasions on your glass cooktop.
 When cooking items with high sugar content, be sure to clean up any spills immediately
to avoid permanently damaging the surface.
Don’t Forget!
 Always clean up spills and food residue as soon as the cooking surface has cooled down.
Allowing spills (especially those containing sugar or acid) to dry will make it much more
difficult to clean the cooktop
 Your cooktop is not a countertop! Placing foreign items on the cooktop for storage could
damage or scratch the surface, especially if this habit is repeated over time.
 Use pots and pans with a smooth, flat bottom and avoid sliding cookware across the
cooktop’s surface
 Keep the surface clean of gritty particles (such as crumbs or dirt) and make sure such
material does not get between the cooktop and cookware
.
Follow these tips and you can enjoy the appearance and
convenience of your smooth glass cooktop for years of easy
cooking!
