42 MAINTENANCE MAINTENANCE Cleaning the Glass-Ceramic Cooktop CAUTION •• Do not use scrub pads or abrasive cleaning pads. They may damage your cooktop surface. •• For your safety, wear an oven mitt or pot holder while using a scraper on the hot cooking surface. •• Read and follow all instructions and warnings on the cleaning cream label. Use ceramic cooktop cleaner on the glass cooktop. Other creams may not be as effective or may scratch, damage or stain the cooktop surface. To maintain and protect the surface of the glass cooktop, follow these steps: 1 Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean it with a ceramic cooktop cleaner. This helps protect the top and makes cleanup easier. 2 Use ceramic cooktop cleaner daily to help keep the cooktop looking new. 3 Shake the cleaning cream well. Apply a few drops of cleaner directly to the cooktop. 4 Use a paper towel to clean the entire cooktop surface. 5 Rinse with clear water and use a dry cloth or paper towel to remove all cleaning residue. NOTE Do not heat the cooktop until it has been cleaned thoroughly. IMPORTANT If any sugar or food containing sugar (preserves, ketchup, tomato sauce, jellies, fudge, candy, syrups, chocolate) spills, or plastic or foil melts on the 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 use an oven mitt or pot holder while scraping the hot cooking surface. NOTE Sugary spillovers(such as preserves, ketchup, tomato sauce, jellies, fudge, candy, syrups, chocolate) or melted plastics can cause pitting of the surface of your cooktop. (Not covered by the warranty) Burned-On Residue 1 While the cooktop is still hot, remove any burnt on deposits or spilled food from the glass-ceramic cooking surface with a suitable metal razor scraper. (Similar to scraping paint off of a windowpane, it will not damage the decorated cooking surface.) Hold the scraper at an approximate 30° angle to the cooktop. NOTE •• Do not use a dull or nicked blade. •• To prevent burns, wear an oven mitt or pot holder while using the metal scraper. 2 When the cooking surface has cooled down, apply a few dabs (about the size of a dime) of a ceramic glass cooktop cleaner in each burner area and work the cleaning cream over the cooktop surface with a damp paper towel. 3 Rinse with clean water and wipe the cooktop surface with a clean, dry paper towel.
