CARE AND CLEANING

Cleaning the cooktop

Only use an approved ceramic cooktop cleaner on the glass cooktop. Other creams may not be as

effective or they might damage the surface with scratches or permanent staining.

To maintain and protect the surface of your glass cooktop, follow these steps:

① Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean it with a ceramic cooktop cleaner. This helps

protect the top and makes cleanup easier.

② Daily use of the ceramic cooktop cleaner will help keep the cooktop looking new.

③ Shake the cleaning cream well. Apply a few drops of cleaner directly to the cooktop.

④ Use a paper towel to clean the entire cooktop surface.

⑤ Rinse with clear water and use a dry cloth or paper towel to remove all cleaning residue.

NOTE: It is very important that you DO NOT heat the cooktop until it has been cleaned

thoroughly.

CAUTION

• DO NOT use scrub pads or abrasive cleaning pads. They may damage your

glass cooktop surface.

• For your safety, please wear an oven mitt potholder while cleaning the hot

cooking surface.

Burned-on residue

To clean the glass-ceramic

Step 1

First remove any burnt-on deposits or spilled food from your glass-ceramic cooking surface with a

suitable metal razor scraper (similar to scraping paint off windowpanes in your home – it will not

damage the cooking surface). Hold the scraper at approximately a 30° angle to the cooktop.

NOTE: Do not use a dull or nicked blade. For your safety, wear an oven mitt potholder while

using the metal scraper.

Step 2

When the cooking surface has cooled down, apply a few drops (about the size of a dime) of an

approved cleaner in each burner area and work the cleaning cream over the cooktop surface with a

damp paper towel as if you were cleaning a window.

Step 3

As a final step, clean with clear water and wipe the cooktop surface with a clean, dry paper towel.

Important: If any sugar or food containing sugar (preserves, ketchup, tomato sauce, jellies, fudge,

candy, syrups, chocolate, etc.), a plastic item or kitchen foil accidentally melts on the hot

surface of your cooktop, remove the molten material IMMEDIATELY with a metal razor scraper

(it will not damage the cooking surface) while the cooking surface is still hot to avoid the risk

of damage to the glass-ceramic surface. For your safety please wear an oven mitt

potholder while cleaning the hot cooking surface.
