before cleaning. Do not use cleaner
cream to clean porcelain, paint or
aluminum because it can damage the
surface.

use the
following
on the
ceramic
glass
cooktop:
o Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring pads, such as metal and
some nylon pads, They may scratch the cooktop,
making it more
difficult
to clean,

bleach, ammonia
or oven
cleaners, as they may etch or discolor the cooktop,
Do not use dirty sponges, cloths or paper towels, as they can leave soil
or lint on the cooktop

care must be taken when aluminum pots or pans are used. If allowed to boil
dry, not only will the utensil be ruined, but it may fuse to, break or mark the
ceramic glass surface, permanetly damaging it.
