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.

COOKTOP CONTROLS

To avoid damage to the cooktop controls, do not use steel wool, abrasive cleansers or oven cleaner.

To avoid damage, do not soak knobs.

When replacing knobs, make sure knobs are in the Off position.

Do not remove seals under knobs.

Cleaning Method:

When replacing knobs, make sure they are in the OFF position.

Rub in direction of grain to avoid damaging.
