Care is easy when preventative steps are taken. For 

example, apply a small amount of Cooktop Cleaning 

Creme® on a daily basis.

This provides a protective fi lm that makes it easy to 

remove water spots or food spatters.

Use a clean cloth and apply Cooktop Cleaning 

Creme® before each use to remove dust or metal 

marks that can occur on the counter level surface 

between uses.

The temperature of the cooking surface during use 

reduces the protective qualities of the cleaning creme, 

so it must be re-applied regularly to maintain the ap-

pearance of the cooktop.
