General Care & Cleaning (cont'd)

Cooktop Cleaning and 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 (visit www.sears.com for replacment cleaner) to the ceramic surface. Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or 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 or dirty bottoms can mark or scratch the cooktop surface. Do not slide anything metal or glass across the cooktop. Do not use cookware with dirt or dirt build up on bottom; replace with clean cookware before using. 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 ceramic glass cooktop, they may cause it to crack.

Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL.

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.

Cleaning Recommendations for the Ceramic Glass Cooktop

For light to moderate soil:

Apply a few drops of the cooktop cleaning creme directly to the cooktop. Use a paper towel or a 3M Scotch-Brite® Blue Multi-Purpose No Scratch Scrub Sponge 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 3M Scotch-Brite® Blue Multi-Purpose No Scratch Scrub Sponge, applying pressure as needed. Do not use the sponge you use to clean the cooktop for any otl"

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.

Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you use any scrub pad other than a 3M Scotch-Brite® Blue Multi-Purpose No Scratch Scrub Sponge.

Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:

These types of soils need be removed immediately if spilled or melted onto the

. ,,,, pceramic cooktop surface. Permanent damage (such as pitting of the cooktop surface) may occur if not removed immediately. After turning the surface elements OFF, use a razor blade scraper or a metal spatula with a mitt and scrape the soil from the hot surface (as illustrated). Allow the cooktop to cool, and use the same method for heavy or burned on soils.
