Cleaning the glass cooktop.
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
Turn off all surface units. Remove hot pans.
Wearing an oven mitt, hold the razor scraper at approximately a 45° angle and move the spill to a cool area on the cooktop (away from the hot surface unit).
Remove the spill with a paper towel.
Any remaining spillover should be left until the surface of the cooktop has cooled.
Clean the affected area thoroughly as described under
Daily Use.
NOTE: If pitting has already occurred, the cooktop glass will have to be replaced. In this case, service will be necessary.

Tips Care and Cleaning Operating Instructions Safety Instructions
Metal Marks and Scratches
Be careful not to slide pots and pans across your cooktop. It will leave metal markings on the cooktop surface.
These marks are removable using the cleaning cream with cleaning pad and/or razor scraper.
If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum or copper are allowed to boil dry, the overlay may leave
black discoloration on the cooktop.
This should be removed immediately before heating again or the discoloration may be permanent.
WARNING: Carefully check the bottoms of the pans for nicks and gouges that would scratch the cooktop.
Melted Plastic or Porcelain from Cookware
Troubleshooting
If porcelain from cookware melts/hardens onto the glass, it usually cannot be removed because it bonds to the glass.
If any plastic melts onto the glass and has not already hardened, you may try to remove it following
general instructions above described under Sugary Spillovers.
NOTE: If you have melted porcelain or plastic that will not come off the glass, the cooktop will have to be replaced and service will be necessary.

Cooktop Seal
