CLEANING THE COOKTOP

CAUTION

Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the cooktop.

Apply a small amount of ceramic cooktop cleaning crème on a daily basis. It 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 over time.

It must be reapplied before each use. Use a clean cloth and apply cooktop cleaning crème to remove dust or metal marks that can occur on the counter level surface between uses.

CONTROL KNOBS

Pull up to remove the knob using a towel for leverage. Wipe with a hot, soapy cloth, rinse and dry. Do not soak!
