CET/CEP Cooktop Care and Use Manual

Cooktop Care and Maintenance

Cleaning Guide

BEFORE USE CARE

Care is easy when preventative steps are taken. For example, apply a small amount of Cooktop Cleaning Creme® on a daily basis.

This provides a protective film that makes it easy to remove water spots or food spatters.

Use a clean cloth and apply Cooktop Cleaning Creme® before each use to remove dust or metal marks that can occur on the counterlevel surface between uses.

The temperature of the cooking surface during use reduces the protective qualities of the Cleaning Creme®, so it must be re-applied regularly to maintain the appearance of the cooktop.
