Caring For Your Cooktop

Continued

Personal Injury Hazard

l Allow surface unit and surrounding areas to reduce in temperature from hot to warm before removing heavy or sugary spills. Wear protective clothing such as oven mitts.

l Do not use cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. The cleaner may produce hazardous fumes or damage the cooktop.

. Do not use the cooktop if it is cracked or broken.

Failure to follow these instuctions can result in personal injury.

To avoid damaging the cooktop, follow these instructions:

l Make sure bottoms of pans are clean and dry before using.

l Avoid spill-overs. Use pans with tall sides.

. Do not allow anything that may melt (plastic, aluminum foil, sugar or food with high sugar content) to come in contact with the surface while it is hot.

l Do not use the cooktop as a cutting board.

l Do not place food directly on ceramic cooktop.

l Do not use steel wool, plastic cleaning pads, abrasive powdered cleansers, chlorine bleach, rust remover, ammonia, glass cleaning products with ammonia or cleaning products designed for white ceramic cooktops. These could damage the cooktop surface.

l Dropping heavy or hard objects on the cooktop can crack it. Be careful with heavy skillets. Don’t store jars or cans above the cooktop.

Cleaning tips

l Light soils - Remove with a clean, damp paper towel.

l Greasy soils - Remove with a soapy sponge or soft cloth -OR- with vinegar and a clean paper towel. Rinse and dry well.

l Stubborn soils - Apply a vinegar soaked paper towel to the stain for 1O-l 5 minutes. Rub off soil. Rinse and dry well.

l Heavy soils - Carefully scrape heavy spills using a single edge razor blade in a holder. Remove remaining residue with a non-abrasive cleanser and a clean, damp paper towel. Rinse and dry well.

l Sugary spills and soils - To avoid pitting on the cooktop, clean spills up while the glass is still warm. Follow cleaning instructions for “Heavy soils” above. Rinse and dry well.

NOTE: Always rinse and dry your cooktop thoroughly after cleaning. This will prevent streaking or staining from cleaning materials.

l Tiny scratches or abrasions are not removable, but do not affect cooking. In time, the scratches will become less visible as a result of cleaning.

lFor further care of your cooktop, use the Cook Top Polishing Creme included with your cooktop. Use only on a clean, cool cooktop. Follow instructions on the container to remove metal marks (from copper or aluminum pans) as soon as possible. If heated, metal marks may not come off. Cook Top Polishing Creme will also remove dark streaks, specks and discolora- tions caused by cleaning materials or foods.
