Cleaning the glass cooktop.
Glass surface—potential for permanent damage
Our testing shows that if
you are cooking high sugar
mixtures such as jelly or
fudge and have a spillover,
it can cause permanent
damage to the glass surface
unless the spillover is
immediately removed.

Metal Marks and Scratches
Be careful not to slide pots and pans
across your cooktop. It will leave metal
markings on the cooktop surface.
These marks are removable using the
ceramic cooktop cleaner with the cleaning
pad for ceramic cooktops.
Damage from Sugary Spills and Melted Plastic
Turn off all surface elements. Remove hot
pans.
Wearing an oven mitt:
a. Use a single-edge razor blade scraper
(ceramic cooktop scraper) to move the
spill to a cool area on the cooktop.
b. Remove the spill with paper towels.
Any remaining spillover should be left until
the surface of the cooktop has cooled.

copper are allowed to boil dry, the overlay
may leave black discoloration on the
cooktop.
This should be removed immediately
before heating again or the discoloration
may be permanent.

Don't use the surface elements again until
