TIPS TO PROTECT THE
SMOOTHTOP SURFACE
Cleaning
(see pages 27~28 for more information)
Before first use, clean the cooktop.
Clean your cooktop daily or after each use. This will keep
your cooktop looking good and can prevent damage.
If a spillover occurs while cooking, immediately clean the
spill from the cooking area while it is hot to prevent a tough
cleaning chore later. Using extreme care, wipe spill with a
clean dry towel.
Do not allow spills to remain on the cooking area or the
cooktop trim for a long period of time.
Do not
use abrasive cleansing powders or scouring pads
which will scratch the cooktop.
Do not
use chlorine bleach, ammonia, or other cleansers
not specifically recommended for use on glass-ceramic.
To Prevent Marks & Scratches
Do not use glass pans. They may scratch the surface.
Do not
place a trivet or wok ring between the surface and
pan. These items can mark or scratch the top.
Do not slide aluminum pans across a hot surface. The pans
may leave marks which need to be removed promptly.”
(See Cleaning pages 27~28.)
Make sure the surface and the pan bottom are clean before
turning on to prevent scratches.
To prevent scratching or damaging to the glass-ceramic top,
do not leave sugar, salt, or fats on the cooking area. Wipe the
cooktop surface with a clean cloth or paper towel before
using.
Do not
slide heavy metal pans across the surface since these
may scratch.
To Prevent Stains
Do not
use a soiled dish cloth or sponge to clean the
cooktop surface. A film will remain which may cause stains
on the cooking surface after the area is heated.
Continuously cooking on a soiled surface may/will result in a
permanent stain.
To Prevent Other Damages
Do not allow plastic, sugar, or foods with high sugar content
to melt onto the hot cooktop. Should this happen, clean
immediately. (See Cleaning pages 27~28.)
Do not
let a pan boil dry as this will damage the surface and
pan.
Do not
use cooktop as a work surface or cutting board.
Do not
cook food directly on the surface.

• Use only cookware and dishes recommended as
safe for oven and cooktop use.
• Always use oven mitts when removing food from
the warming center as cookware and plates will be
hot.
• When warming pastries and breads the cover should
have an opening to allow moisture to escape.
• Do not use plastic wrap to cover foods. Plastic may
melt onto the surface and be very difficult to clean.
• Food should be kept in its container and covered
with a lid or aluminum foil to maintain food quality.
• Do not warm food on the warming zone for more
than 2 hours.
• Placing uncooked or cold food on the warming zone
could result in foodborne illness.
