CLEANING THE GLASS/CERAMIC COOKTOP (cont')
Burned-On Residue
To clean the glass/ceramic cooktop Step. 1

Do not use a dull or nicked blade. For your safety, please wear an oven mitt potholder while using the metal scraper.

When the cooking surface has cooled down apply a few dabs (about the size of a dime)of an approved cleaner in each burner area and work the cleaning cream over the
cooktop surface with a damp paper towel as if you were cleaning a window.
