DAILY CLEANING: Use only Cook Top Cleaning Creme on the glass cooktop.
For normal, light soil:
1.Rub a few drops (less is better) of Cook Top Cleaning Creme onto soiled area using a damp paper towel. Buff with a dry paper towel until all soil and creme are removed. Frequent cleaning leaves a protective coating which is essential in preventing scratches and abrasions.
2.Clean surface with Cook Top Cleaning Creme after each use.
For heavy, burned on soil:
1.Apply a few drops of Cook Top Cleaning Creme to the (cool) soiled area.
2.Using a damp paper towel, rub creme into the burned on area. As with any burned on spill, this may require some effort.
3.Carefully scrape soil with razor scraper. Hold scraper at a 30° angle against the glass cooktop.
4.If any soil remains, repeat the steps listed above. For additional protection, after all soil has been removed, polish the entire surface with the Cook Top Cleaning Creme.
5.Buff with a dry paper towel.
NOTE:
. Using a razor scraper will not damage the surface if the 30° angle is maintained.
●Be sure to use a new, sharp razor scraper. Do not use a dull or nicked blade.
. Store the razor scraper out of reach of children.
