Special care of the glass surface units

Sugary spillovers (such as jellies, fudge, candy syrups) or melted plastics can cause pitting of the surface units of your cooktop (not covered by the warranty) unless the spill is removed while still hot. Special care should be taken when removing hot substances. Follow these instructions carefully and remove soil while spill is still hot.

1Turn off all surface units affected by the spillover. Remove hot pans.

2Wearing an oven mitt, hold the razor scraper at a 30° angle to the cooktop and scrape hot spill to a cool area outside the surface unit.

3With the spill in a cool area, use a dry paper towel to remove any excess. Any spillover remaining should be left until the surface of the cooktop has cooled.

Do not continue to use the soiled surface unit until all of the spillover has been removed. Follow the steps under Heavy Soil to continue the cleaning process.

Note: Using a razor scraper will not damage the glass

surface units if the 30° angle is maintained.

Precautions for the glass surface units

•If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum, copper or enamel are allowed to boil dry, the overlay may bond with the glass surface units and leave a black discoloration. This should be removed immediately before heating again or the discoloration may be permanent.

•Water stains (mineral deposits) are removable using the cleaning cream or full strength white vinegar.

•Use of window cleaner may leave an iridescent film on the glass surface units. The cleaning cream will remove this discoloration.

•If you slide aluminum or copper cookware across the glass surface units of your cooktop, they may leave metal markings which appear as scratches. If this should happen, use

the razor scraper and cleaning cream to remove these markings. Failure to remove these residues immediately may leave permanent marks.

•Most cleaners contain ammonia, chemicals and abrasives which can damage the surface units. Use only the recommended cleaning cream for proper cleaning and protection of your glass surface units.

•Read and follow all instructions and warnings on the cleaning cream labels.
