Failure to remove these soils immediatly can
permanently damage the surface.
• Remove pan and turn off the element.
• Angle the scraper slightly, using care not to gouge or
scratch the glass. Push soil off the heated area.
• After the surface has cooled, remove the residue and
apply the Cooktop Cleaning Creme ® .
• Soften by laying a damp paper towel or sponge on top
of soil for about 30 minutes.
• Use non-metal scouring pad such as Dobie ® with Soft
Scrub ® , or use the razor blade scraper. Rinse and dry.
Recondition with Cooktop Cleaning Creme and a
clean cloth or paper towel.
• Use vinegar or a soapy sponge to remove grease; rinse
thoroughly and dry. Apply Cooktop Cleaning Creme.
• Pans with aluminum, copper or stainless steel bases
may leave marks. Treat immediately, after surface has
cooled, with the Cooktop Cleaning Creme. If this
does not remove the metal marks, try a mild abrasive
(Bon Ami
® , Soft Scrub ® ) with a dampened paper
towel; rinse; and re-apply creme.
Failure to remove metal marks before the next
heating makes removal difficult.
• The minerals in some water can be transferred onto
the surface and cause stains. Use undiluted white
vinegar, rinse and dry. Recondition with Cooktop
Cleaning Creme.
Remove boil-overs / stains, before using the cooktop again.
• Can be reduced by removing sand-like grains/grit such
as salt and seasoning from below the pan.
• Can be reduced by using pans with bases that are
smooth, clean, and dry before use. Use recommended
Cooktop Cleaning Creme daily on the cooktop.
CAUTION: Diamond rings will scratch the surface.
Dry sugar, sugar syrup, milk or tomato spills.
Melted plastic film or foil. All these items
REQUIRE IMMEDIATE REMOVAL. Remove only
these types of spills while the surface is hot using the
razor blade scraper. See Page illustration on page16.

removable, in time they will become smoother and
much less noticeable with daily use of the Cooktop
