Operating Instructions
For Heavy, Burned-On Soil…
Using a razor scraper will not damage the surface if the 45° angle is maintained.
Allow the cooktop to cool.
Apply a few drops of cleaning cream to the cool, soiled area. Spread the cream across the entire soiled area.
Hold scraper at a 45° angle against the glass ceramic surface. This 45° angle makes the scraping easier.
Scrape soil with the enclosed razor scraper. Keep small amount of cream on the soil as you scrape. Heavily soiled areas may require repeated applications of cream. It will be necessary to press down on
the razor scraper while scraping the soiled area with cooktop cream.
Be sure to use a new sharp razor scraper. Do not use a dull or nicked blade.
If any soil remains, repeat the steps listed above.

Care and Cleaning
Our testing shows that if you are cooking high sugar mixtures such as jelly or fudge and have a spillover, permanent damage to the cooktop surface may occur unless the spillover is immediately removed.
Special Care for Sugary Spills
Be sure to use a new sharp razor scraper. Do not use a dull or nicked blade.
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.
Turn off all surface units affected by the spillover. Remove hot pans.
Wearing an oven mitt, hold the razor scraper at a 45° angle to the cooktop. Scrape the hot spill to a cool area outside the surface unit.
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
NOTE: 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.
