Ceramic Glass Cooktop 
Cleaning & Maintenance
Cleaning recommendations 
for the ceramic glass cooktop
Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to 
maintaining your ceramic glass cooktop
Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls 
are turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL.
DO NOT use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. 
The fumes can be hazardous to your health, and can 
chemically damage the ceramic-glass surface.
Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply a
ceramic cooktop cleaning cream (available in most 
hardware, grocery and department stores) to the 
ceramic surface. Clean and buff with a clean paper 
towel. This will make cleaning easier when soiled from 
cooking. Cooktop cleaning creams leave a protective 
finish  on  the  glass  to  help  prevent  scratches  and
abrasions.
Any cookware (cast iron, metal, glass, ceramic, etc) 
with rough bottoms can mark or scratch the cooktop 
surface. 
Do not slide anything metal or glass 
across the cooktopDo not use your cooktop as a 
cutting board or work surface in the kitchen. 
Do not 
cook foods directly on the cooktop surface without a 
pan. 
Do not drop heavy or hard objects on the glass 
cooktop, because they may cause it to crack.
For light to moderate soil:
Apply a few drops of cooktop cleaning cream directly 
to the cooktop. Use a clean paper towel to clean the 
entire cooktop surface. Make sure the cooktop is 
cleaned thoroughly, leaving no residue. Do not use 
the towel you use to clean the cooktop for any other 
purpose.
For heavy, burned on soil:
First, clean the surface as described above. Then, if 
soils remain, protect your hand with a potholder and 
carefully scrape soils with a metal razor blade scraper, 
holding scraper at a 30 degree angle to the surface. 
Remove loosened soils with cooktop cleaning cream 
and buff surface clean.
