Metal Marks and Scratches
1.  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 a non-scratch cleaning pad for 
ceramic cooktops.
2.   If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum or 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.
NOTE: Carefully check the bottom of pans for roughness 
that would scratch the cooktop.
3.   Be careful not to place aluminum baking sheets or 
aluminum frozen entrée containers on a hot cooktop 
surface. It will leave shinny dots or markings on the 
cooktop surface. These markings are permanent and 
cannot be cleaned off.
Damage from Sugary Spills and Melted Plastic
Special care should be taken when removing hot substances to avoid permanent damage of the glass surface. 
Sugary spillovers (such as jellies, fudge, candy, syrups) or melted plastics can cause pitting of the surface of your 
cooktop (not covered by the warranty) unless the spill is removed while still hot. Special care should be taken when 
removing hot substances.
Be sure to use a new, sharp razor scraper.
Do not use a dull or nicked blade.
1.  Turn off all surface units. Remove hot pans.
2.  Wearing an oven mitt:

the spill to a cool area on the cooktop.
    b.   Remove the spill with paper towels.
3.  Any remaining spillover should be left until the surface 
of the cooktop has cooled.
4.  Don’t use the surface units again until all of the 
residue has been completely removed.
NOTE: If pitting or indentation in the glass surface has 
already occurred, the cooktop glass will have to be 
replaced. In this case, service will be necessary.
Cooktop Seal
To clean the cooktop seal around the edges of the glass, 
lay a wet cloth on it for a few minutes, then wipe clean 
with nonabrasive cleaners.
