Care and Cleaning

Halogen/Radiant Cooktop

Proper care and cleaning are important so your halogen/radiant cooktop will give you efficient and satisfactory service. If soil, mineral deposits from evaporated water spills or metal rub-off from aluminum cookware is not removed, it will burn on the glass cooktop surface and cause permanent discoloration.

Follow these directions carefully in caring for your cooktop to assure safe and proper maintenance.

Be sure that the surface unit control knobs are turned off and that the entire cooktop is cool before cleaning.

Do not use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. The fumes can be hazardous to your health and can chemically attack the glass surface.

The control knobs may be removed for easier cleaning.

Before removing the knobs for cleaning, please note that the knobs are in the proper OFF position. When replacing the knobs, check the OFF position to insure proper placement.
