Cleaning Procedures
•
Be sure appliance is off and all parts are cool before
handling or cleaning. This is to avoid damage and
possible burns.
Smoothtop -
Never use oven cleaners, chlorine bleach, ammonia or glass cleaners with ammonia. NOTE: Call an authorized
Glass-Ceramic
servicer if the glass-ceramic top should crack, break or if metal or aluminum foil should melt on the cooktop.
•
Allow the cooktop to cool before cleaning.
•
General
– Clean cooktop after each use, with a damp paper towel and Cooktop Cleaning Creme*
(Part No. 20000001)**. Then, buff with a clean dry cloth.
NOTE:
Permanent stains will develop if soil is allowed to cook on by repeatedly using the cooktop when soiled.
•
Heavy Soils or Metal Marks
– Dampen a “scratchless” or “never scratch” scrubber sponge. Apply
Cooktop Cleaning Creme* (Part No. 20000001)** and scrub to remove as much soil as possible. Apply a
thin layer of the creme over the soil, cover with a damp paper towel and let stand 30-45 minutes (2-3
hours for very heavy soil). Keep moist by covering the paper towel with plastic wrap. Scrub again, then
buff with a clean dry cloth.
NOTE: Only use a CLEAN, DAMP “scratchless” pad that is safe for non-stick cookware. The
pattern and glass will be damaged if the pad is not damp, if the pad is soiled, or if another type of
pad is used.
•
Burned-on or Crusty Soils

Cooktop Cleaning Creme*. Hold a razor blade scraper at 30

remaining soil. Then, clean as described above.
NOTE: Do not use the razor blade for daily cleaning as it may wear the pattern
on the glass.
