COOKTOP CARE

General Cleaning

IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and
the cooktop is cool. Always follow label instructions on cleaning
products.

Soap, water and a soft cloth or sponge are suggested first unless
otherwise noted.

CERAMIC GLASS

To avoid damage, do not use steel wool, abrasive powder
cleansers, chlorine bleach, rust remover or ammonia.

Cleaning Method:

Always wipe with a clean, wet cloth or sponge and dry thoroughly
to avoid streaking and staining.

Cooktop Cleaner is recommended for regular use to help avoid
scratches, pitting and abrasions, and to condition the cooktop. It
may be ordered as an accessory. See “Assistance or Service”
section to order.

A Cooktop Scraper is also recommended for stubborn soils, and
can be ordered as an accessory. See “Assistance or Service”
section to order. The Cooktop Scraper uses razor blades. Store
razor blades out of the reach of children.
