Cleaning tips
What to use: � Cooktop Polishing Creme (included with your range) with paper towel or clean, damp sponge � This creme has been developed especially for cleaning and protecting your cooktop. When using the creme, follow the instructions on the container.

How to keep your cooktop looking like new:
IF THERE ARE Sugary spills and soils (such as jellies and candy syrups) WHAT TO DO To prevent pitting on the cooktop, wipe up with a paper towel or clean, damp sponge while the ceramic glass surface is still warm. Remove spills as soon as possible after they occur. Use the Cooktop Polishing Creme or a nonabrasive cleanser with a damp paper towel or sponge. Use the Cooktop Polishing Creme or a gritty cleanser with a damp paper towel or sponge before heating the cooktop again. If heated before cleaning, metal marks may not come off. Scratches and abrasions do not affect cooking. After many cleanings, they will become less visible. To prevent scratches and abrasions, use the Cooktop Polishing Creme regularly.

Dark streaks, specks, and discoloration

� Razor scraper in a holder � Use to remove cooked-on soils from your ceramic glass cooktop. To avoid scratches, keep the razor blade as flat against the cooktop as possible.
