Protecting the cooktop surface
Cleaning
•
Clean the cooktop before using it for the first time.
•
Clean your cooktop daily or after each use. This will keep your cooktop
looking good and can prevent damage.
•
If a spillover occurs while you are cooking, immediately clean the spill while
it is hot to prevent a tough cleaning chore later. Using extreme care, wipe the
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 a glass-ceramic surface.
Preventing marks and scratches
•
Do not use glass cookware. It may scratch the cooktop.
•
Do not
place a trivet or wok ring between the cooktop and a pan or wok.
These items can mark or scratch the cooktop.
•
Make sure the cooktop and the pan bottom are clean.
•
Do not
slide metal pans across the cooktop.
Preventing 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 can result in a permanent stain.
Preventing other damage
•
Do not allow plastic, sugar, or foods with high sugar content to melt onto the
hot cooktop. Should this happen, clean immediately.
•
Do not let a pan boil dry as this will damage the cooktop and the pan.
•
Do not
use the cooktop as a work surface or cutting board.
•
Do not
cook food directly on the cooktop. Always use the proper cookware.
