Cleaning the glass cooktop.

(on some models)

Allow the cooktop to cool.

Use a single-edge razor blade scraper
at approximately a 45° angle against
the glass surface and scrape the soil.
It will be necessary to apply pressure
to the razor scraper in order to
remove the residue.

After scraping with the razor scraper,
spread a few drops of CERAMA BRYTE

Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner on the entire
burned residue area. Use the CERAMA
BRYTE

Cleaning Pad to remove any

remaining residue.

For additional protection, after all
residue has been removed, polish the
entire surface with CERAMA BRYTE

Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner and a paper
towel.

Burned-On Residue

WARNING:

DAMAGE to your

glass surface may occur if you use scrub
pads other than those recommended.

Allow the cooktop to cool.

Spread a few drops of CERAMA BRYTE

Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner on the entire
burned residue area.

Using the included CERAMA BRYTE

Cleaning Pad for Ceramic Cooktops, rub
the residue area, applying pressure as
needed.

If any residue remains, repeat
the steps listed above as needed.

For additional protection, after all
residue has been removed, polish the
entire surface with CERAMA BRYTE

Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner and a paper
towel.

The CERAMA BRYTE

Ceramic Cooktop

Scraper and all recommended supplies
are available through our Parts Center.
See instructions under “To Order Parts”
section on next page.

NOTE:

Do not use a dull or nicked blade.

Heavy, Burned-On Residue

Use a CERAMA BRYTE

Cleaning Pad

for Ceramic Cooktops.

Normal Daily Use Cleaning

ONLY use CERAMA BRYTE

Ceramic Cooktop

Cleaner on the glass cooktop. Other creams
may not be as effective.

To maintain and protect the surface of your
glass cooktop, follow these steps:

Before using the cooktop for the first
time, clean it with CERAMA BRYTE

Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner. This helps
protect the top and makes cleanup
easier.

Daily use of CERAMA BRYTE

Ceramic

Cooktop Cleaner will help keep the
cooktop looking new.

Shake the cleaning cream well. Apply a
few drops of CERAMA BRYTE

Ceramic

Cooktop Cleaner directly to the cooktop.

Use a paper towel or CERAMA BRYTE

Cleaning Pad for Ceramic Cooktops to
clean the entire cooktop surface.

Use a dry cloth or paper towel to
remove all cleaning residue. No need
to rinse.

NOTE: It is very important that you DO NOT
heat the cooktop until it has been cleaned
thoroughly.

Clean your cooktop after
each spill. Use CERAMA
BRYTE

Ceramic Cooktop

Cleaner.
