Cleaning and Maintenance

Any piece of equipment works better and lasts lo nger when maintained properly and k ept clean. Cooking equipment is no exception. Your cooktop must be kept clean and maintained properly.

Glass Ceramic Top

Cleaning of glass c eramic to ps is different f rom c leaning a standard porcelain finish. To maintain and protect the surface of your new glass ceramic top, follow these basic steps:

Rub a few drops of ceramic cleaning cream to the cool soiled area using a damp paper to wel. Wipe until all so il and c ream ar e r emoved. Frequent cleaning leav es a protective co ating which is essential in preventing scratches and abrasions.

For heavy burned soil:

1.Apply a few drops of glass ceramic cleaning cream to the cool soiled area.

2.Using a damp paper towel, rub cream into burned on area.

3.Carefully scrape remaining soil with a razor scraper. Hold the scraper at a 30° angle against the ceramic surface.

4.If any soil remains, repeat the steps above. For additional protection, after all soil has been r emoved, po lish th e entire surface with the cleaning cream.

5.Buff with a dry paper towel. As the cleaning cream cleans, it leaves a protective coating on the glass surface. This coating helps to prevent buildup o f m ineral dep osits ( water spot s) and wil l ma ke f uture cleaning easier . Di shwashing de tergents remove t his p rotective coating and therefore make the glass c eramic top more susceptible to staining.

Control Knobs

Make sure all the control knobs point to the OFF position before removing. Pull t he k nobs straight off. Wash in deter gent and warm water. Dry completely and replace by pushing firmly onto stem.

Stainless Steel

All stainless steel parts should be wiped regularly with hot, soapy water at the end of each cooling period and with liquid stainless steel cleaner when soapy water ill not do the job. DO NOT use steel wool, abrasive cloths, abrasive cleaners or powders.
