Cleaning the glass cooktop, Normal Daily Use Cleaning | GE Coli Top

Cleaning the glass cooktop.

Be sure all controls are OFF and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the cooktop.

Normal Daily Use Cleaning

ONLY use a cleaning cream suitable for glass surfaces. Other creams may not be as effective.

To maintain and protect the surface of your glass cooktop, follow these steps:

Use a paper towel or cleaning pad for ceramic cooktops to clean the entire cooktop surface.

Use a dry cloth or paper towel to remove all cleaning residue. No need to rinse.

Clean your cooktop after each spill.

Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean it with cooktop cleaner. This helps protect the top and makes cleanup easier.

Daily use of cooktop cleaner will help keep the cooktop looking new.

Shake the cleaning cream well. Apply a few drops of cooktop cleaner directly to the cooktop.

NOTE: It is very important that you DO NOT heat the cooktop until it has been cleaned thoroughly.

Use a cleaning pad suitable for glass surfaces.

Burned-On Residue

Allow the cooktop to cool.

Spread a few drops of cooktop cleaner on the entire burned residue area.

Using a cleaning pad suitable for glass surfaces, rub the residue area, applying pressure as needed.

If any residue remains, repeat the steps listed above as needed.

For additional protection, after all residue has been removed, polish the entire surface with cooktop cleaner and a paper towel.

NOTE: Do not use a dull or nicked blade.

Heavy, Burned-On Residue

Allow the cooktop to cool.

Use a single-edge razor blade scraper at approximately a 45° angle against the glass surface and scrape the soil. It will be necessary to apply pressure to the razor scraper in order to remove the residue.

After scraping with the razor scraper, spread a few drops of cooktop cleaner on the entire burned residue area. Use a cleaning pad suitable for glass surfaces to remove any remaining residue.

For additional protection, after all residue has been removed, polish the entire surface with cooktop cleaner and a paper towel.
