Precautions for Long Life and Good Appearance of the Surface
•Regular, daily care using the Cooktop Cleaning Creme® will protect the sur- face and make it easier to remove food soil and water spots.
•The glass ceramic cooking surface is a durable material resistant to impact but not unbreakable if a pan or other object is dropped on it.
•Do not use aluminum foil directly on the glass; it will melt and damage the glass surface.
•Do not allow plastic, paper, or cloth to come in contact with the hot glass sur- face; these items can melt or burn and damage the glass surface.
•Do not allow pans to boil dry. This can damage the pan, element and/or the cooktop.
•Never cook food directly on the glass.
•Avoid placing a wok support ring, trivet or other metal stand on the glass sur- face.
•Do not use the glass surface as a cutting board.
•Do not slide cookware across the cooking surface; it may scratch the glass.
•Do not place wet pans on the glass surface.
