CARE AND CLEANING

Cooktop Cleaning

For light to moderate soil:

For light to moderate soil: Apply a few drops of cooktop

cleaning cream directly to the cooktop. Use a clean paper

towel to clean the entire cooktop surface. Make sure the

cooktop is cleaned thoroughly, leaving no residue. Do not

use the towel you use to clean the cooktop for any other

purpose.

Aluminum Foil and Utensils

For heavy soil:

Apply a few drops of cooktop cleaning cream directly to the

soiled area. Rub the soiled area using a non-abrasive

cleaning tool, applying pressure as needed. Do not use the

pad you use to clean the cooktop for any other purpose.

If soils remain, carefully scrape soils with a metal razor

blade scraper, holding scraper at a 30 degree angle to the

surface. Remove loosened soils with cooktop cleaning

cream and buff the surface clean.

Do not use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. The

fumes can be hazardous to your health, and can chemi-

cally damage the ceramic-glass surface.

Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are

turned to OFF and the cooktop is cool. The glass surface

could be hot from contact with hot cookware, and burns

may occur if the glass surface is touched before it has

cooled sufficiently.

Never cover any slots, holes, or passages with materials

such as aluminum foil. Aluminum foil linings may trap

heat, causing a fire hazard.
