English MAINTENANCE Burned-On Residue To clean the glass-ceramic Step. 1 First remove any burnt-on deposits or spilled food from your glassceramic cooking surface with a suitable metal razor scraper (similar to scraping paint off of your windowpanes in your home - it will not damage the decorated cooking surface). Hold the scraper at approximately a 30˚ angle to the cooktop. Note: Do not use a dull or nicked blade. For your safety, please wear an oven mitt potholder while using the metal scraper. Step. 2 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. Note: Approved cleaner Weiman CookTop Cleaning Cream (www.weiman.com) Cerama Bryte (www.ceramabryte.com) Hope's Cooktop Cleaning Cream (www.camden-industrial.com) Easy-Off 3 in 1 Glass Top Cleaner Spray (www.easyoff.us). Metal Marks and Scratches 1. Be careful not to slide pots and pans across your cooktop. It will leave metal markings on the cooktop surface. 2. 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. CAUTION • Cookware with rough or uneven bottoms can mark or scratch the cooktop surface. • Do not slide metal or glass across the cooktop surface. • Do not use cookware with any dirt build up on bottom. Cooktop Seal To clean the cooktop seal around the edges of the glass, lay a wet cloth on it for a few minutes, then wipe clean with nonabrasive cleaners. Step. 3 As a final step, clean with clear water and wipe the cooktop surface with a clean, dry paper towel. Important: If any sugar or food containing sugar (preserves, ketchup, tomato sauce, jellies, fudge, candy, syrups, chocolate, etc.), a plastic item or kitchen foil accidentally melts on the hot surface of your cooktop, remove the molten material IMMEDIATELY with a metal razor scraper (it will not damage the decorated cooking surface) while the cooking surface is still hot to avoid the risk of damage to the glass-ceramic surface. For your safety please wear an oven mitt potholder while cleaning the hot cooking surface. Español - 37 -
