Cleaning the Glass Cooktop

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 spatters. 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 it is completely cool with the Cooktop Cleaning Crème.

Exception: Remove Dry Sugar, Sugar Syrup, Tomato Products and Milk immediately with the razor blade scraper (See Care and Cleaning 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 Cream. When dry, buff surface with a clean paper towel or cloth.

Cleaning the Control Knobs and Bezels

The bezel is the plastic piece behind the knob.

Pull out and off to remove both knob and bezel. Wipe with hot, soapy cloth, rinse and dry. Do not soak.

To replace, position knob on top of bezel hold spring tight. Place both knob and bezel on shaft at the same time and release spring.

Using the Razor Blade Scraper

Use the scraper to remove dried or baked on foods. Hold the scraper at a 45° angle. Move it over the soil to lift it off of the cooktop. Finish with a clean, damp sponge or paper towel. Apply vinegar if smudge remains and rinse.

Do Not Use the Following Cleaners

•Glass cleaners which contain ammonia or chlorine bleach. These ingredients may permanently etch or stain the cooktop.

•Caustic Cleaners

Oven cleaners such as Easy Off® may etch the cooktop surface.

•Abrasive Cleaners

Metal scouring pads and scrub sponges such as Scotch Brite® can scratch and / or leave metal marks. Soap-filled scouring pads such as SOS® can scratch the surface.

Powdery cleaners containing chlorine bleach can permanently stain the cooktop.

Flammable cleaners such as lighter fluid or WD-40.

CAUTION

Do not use any kind of 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 surface.
