Lightweight or warped pans used. Use only flat, evenly balanced, medium or heavy-

Coarse particles such as salt or hardened soils between cooktop and utensils can

usage. Small scratches do not affect cooking and will become less visible with time.

Cleaning materials not recommended for ceramic-glass cooktop have been used.

Apply the recommended CookTop® Cleaning Creme to the ceramic surface. Buff with

a non-abrasive cloth or sponge.

Cookware with rough bottom was used. Use smooth, flat-bottomed cookware.

Metal marks on the cooktop.

Sliding or scraping of metal utensils on cooktop surface. Do not slide metal utensils
