To Raise the Top for Cleaning

A rod swings up to support the top for cleaning under- neath.

1.Grasp the sides and lift from the front. A lift-up rod will support the top in its raised position. Only lift the top high enough to allow the support rod to rest in place under the front of the cooktop.

2.Clean underneath using a clean cloth and hot, soapy water.

3.To lower the top, lift the top slightly and lower the rod. Lower the range top down into the range frame.

When lowering the lift-up range top, grasp the sides with fingertips only. Be

careful not to pinch fingers. DO NOT drop or bend the range top when raising or lowering.This could damage the surface.

Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance

Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to maintaining your Ceramic glass cooktop

Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended CookTop® Cleaning Creme to the ceramic surface (on the web visit www.sears.com for replacement cooktop cleaner, item number 40079). Buff with a non-abrasivecloth or no-scratchcleaning pad.This will make cleaning easier when soiled from cooking.The special cooktop cleaning cream leaves a protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.

Sliding aluminum or copper clad bottom pans on the cooktop can cause metal markings on the cooktop surface. These marks should be removed immediately after the cooktop has cooled using the cooktop cleaning cream. Metal marks can become permanent if not removed prior to future use.

Cookware (cast iron, metal, ceramic or glass) with rough bottoms can mark or scratch the cooktop surface. Do not slide anything metal or glass across the cooktop. Do not use your cooktop as a cutting board or work surface in the kitchen. Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop surface without a pan. Do not drop heavy or hard objects on the glass cooktop, because they may cause it to crack.

Cleaning Recommendations for the Ceramic Glass Cooktop

Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL.

Cleaning Recommendations for the Ceramic Glass CooktopFor light to moderate soil:For heavy, burned on soil:Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:Manual background DO NOT use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. The fumes can be hazardous to your health, and can chemically damage the ceramic glass surface.

For light to moderate soil:

Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to the cooktop. Use a paper towel or use a non-abrasiveplastic type no-scratchpad to clean the entire cooktop surface. Make sure the cooktop is cleaned thoroughly, leaving no residue.

For heavy, burned on soil:

Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to the soiled area. Rub the soiled area using a non-abrasiveplastic type no-scratchpad, applying pressure as needed. Do not use the pad you use to clean the cooktop for any other purpose.

If soils remain, carefully scrape soils with a metal razor blade scraper, holding scraper at a 30 degree angle to the surface. Remove loosened soils with cooktop cleaning cream and buff surface clean.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you use an abrasive type scratch pad. Only use cleaning products that have been specifically designed for ceramic glass cooktop.

Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:

These types of soils need be removed immediately if spilled or melted onto the ceramic cooktop surface. Permanent damage (such as pitting of the cooktop surface) may occur if not removed immediately. After turning the surface ele- ments OFF, use a razor blade scraper or a metal spatula with a mitt and scrape the soil from the hot surface (as illus- trated). Allow the cooktop to cool, and use the same method for heavy or burned on soils.
