NORMAL DAILY USE CLEANING
ONLY use Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner on the glass 
cooktop. Other creams may not be as effective or they 
might damage the surface with scratches or 
permanent staining.  
To maintain and protect the surface of your glass 
cooktop, follow these steps:
1
  Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean it 
with Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner. This helps protect 
the top and makes cleanup easier.
2
  Daily use of Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner will 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 clean the entire cooktop 
surface.
5
  Rinse with clear water and use a dry cloth or paper 
towel to remove all cleaning residue.
NOTE:
It is very important that you DO NOT heat the cooktop 
until it has been cleaned thoroughly.
BURNED-ON RESIDUE
To clean the glass-ceramic
Step. 1
 
First remove any burnt-on 
deposits or spilled food from 
your glass-ceramic 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

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.
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. These marks are removable 
using the Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner with the 
Cleaning Pad for Ceramic Cooktops.
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
•  DO NOT use scrub pads or abrasive cleaning 
pads.
   - They may damage your glass cooktop surface.
•  For your safety please wear an oven mitt 
potholder while cleaning the hot cooking 
surface.
