GLASS COOKTOP CLEANING

(on some models)

Glass Cooktop Cleaning

Cleaning of glass cooktops is different from cleaning a standard porcelain finish. To maintain and protect the surface of your new glass cooktop follow these basic steps.

Before you use the cooktop for the first time, clean it with cleaning cream. This helps protect the top and makes clean-up easier.

DAILY CLEANING: Use only a recommended cleaning cream, such as Cerama Brite or the Cooktop Cleaning Creme, on the glass cooktop.

For normal, light soil:

1.Rub a few drops (less is better) of the cleaning cream onto soiled area using a damp paper towel. Buff with a dry paper towel until all soil and cream are removed. Frequent cleaning leaves a protective coating which is essential in preventing scratches and abrasions.

2.Clean surface with the cleaning cream after each use.

For heavy, burned on soil:

1.Apply a few drops of the cleaning cream to the (cool) soiled area.

2.Using a damp paper towel, rub the cream into the burned on area. As with any burned on spill, this may require some effort.

3.Carefully scrape soil with razor scraper. Hold scraper at a 30° angle against the glass cooktop.

4.If any soil remains, repeat the steps listed above. For additional protection, after all soil has been removed, polish the entire surface with the cleaning cream.

5.Buff with a dry paper towel.

NOTE:

•Using a razor scraper will not damage the surface if the 30° angle is maintained.

•Be sure to use a new, sharp razor scraper. Do not use a dull or nicked blade.

•Store the razor scraper out of reach of children.

SPECIAL CARE: Sugary spillovers (such as jellies, fudge, candy syrups) or melted plastics can cause pitting of the surface of your cooktop (not covered by the warranty) unless the spill is removed while still hot. Special care should be taken when removing hot substances. Follow these instructions carefully and remove soil while spill is still hot.

1.Turn off all surface units affected by the spillover. Remove hot pans.

2. Wearing an oven mitt, hold the razor scraper at a 30° angle to the cooktop and scrape hot spill to a cool area outside the surface unit.

3.With the spill in a cool area, use a dry paper towel to remove any excess. Any spillover remaining should be left until the surface of the cooktop has cooled.

Do not continue to use the soiled surface unit until all of the spillover has been removed. Follow the steps under Heavy Soil to continue the cleaning process.

COOKTOP SEAL: To clean the cooktop seal, let a wet cloth rest on it for a few minutes, then wipe clean. Use a mild detergent if needed. Do not use a knife or any sharp object on the seal because it will cut or damage it.

GENERAL INFORMATION: As the cleaning cream cleans, it leaves a protective coating on the cooktop surface. This coating helps to prevent build- up of mineral deposits (water spots) and will make future cleaning easier. Dishwashing detergents remove this protective coating and therefore make the cooktop more susceptible to staining.

PRECAUTIONS

•If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum, copper or enamel are allowed to boil dry, the overlay may bond with the glass cooktop and leave a black discoloration. This should be removed immediately before heating again or the discoloration may be permanent.

•Water stains (mineral deposits) are removable using the cleaning cream or full strength white vinegar.

•Use of window cleaner may leave an iridescent film on the cooktop. The cleaning cream will remove this discoloration.

•If you slide aluminum or copper cookware across the surface of your cooktop, they may leave metal markings which appear as scratches. If this should happen, use the razor scraper and cleaning cream to remove these markings. Failure to remove these residues immediately may leave permanent marks.

•Most cleaners contain ammonia, chemicals and abrasives which can damage the surface of your cooktop. Use only the recommended cleaning cream for proper cleaning and protection of your glass cooktop.

Read and follow all instructions and warnings on the cleaning cream labels.
