Cleaning and Maintenance

Care and Cleaning

Care and Cleaning - the Cooktop

CAUTION

Do not use any cleaner on the glass while the surface is hot; use only the razor blade scraper. The resulting fumes can be hazardous to your health. Heating the cleaner can chemically attack and damage the sur- face.

Precautions for Long Life and Good Appearance of the Surface

Regular, daily care using the Cooktop Cleaning Creme will protect the surface and make it easier to remove food soil and water spots.

The ceramic glass cooking surface is a durable material resistant to impact but not unbreakable if a pan or other object is dropped on it.

Never cook food directly on the glass.

Avoid placing a wok support ring, trivet or other metal stand on glass surface.

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.

Before Use Care

Care is easy when preventative steps are taken. For example, apply a small

 

amount of Cooktop Cleaning Creme (packaged with range) on a daily basis. This

 

provides a protective film that makes it easy to remove water spots or food spat-

 

ters. The temperature of the cooking surface reduces the protective qualities of

 

this cleaner. It must be reapplied before each use. Use a clean cloth and apply

 

Cooktop Cleaning Creme before each use to remove dust or metal marks that can

 

occur on the counter level surface between uses.

Daily Cleaning Techniques

1.

Clean the surface when completely cool with the Cooktop Cleaning Creme.

 

 

Exception: Remove dry sugar, sugar syrup, tomato products and milk imme-

 

 

diately with the razor blade scraper (See Cooktop Care Chart, next page).

 

2.

Wipe off spatters with a clean, damp sponge or paper towel. Rinse and dry.

 

 

Use white vinegar if smudge remains; rinse.

 

3.

Apply a small amount of the Cooktop Cleaning Creme. When dry, buff surface

 

 

with a clean paper towel or cloth.
