METAL MARKS AND SCRATCHES
• Be careful not to slide pots or pans across the range top surface. It may leave behind
metal markings. These marks can be removable using a ceramic glass cleaner and
cleaning pad.
• If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum or copper are used, the overlay may leave a
black discoloration on the range top. This should be removed immediately before using
the range top again or the discoloration will become permanent.
• NOTE: If cracks or indentations in the glass surface occur, the range top glass will have
to be replaced. Contact ZLINE at 1-614-777-5004 for assistance.
