Electric Cooktops - Cleaning & Care

After the Electric Cooktop has cooled, wash with mild, soapy water. Rinse and dry throughly. Finish by applying a small amount of glass cooktop cleaner to a soft, clean cloth. Wipe this on the Electric Cooktop and then buff with a clean, dry towel. Watch the video for a guided tutorial.

Warning: Do not use any cleaners on the glass while the surface is hot. The resulting fumes may be hazardous to your health and result in death or injury. A glass scraper may be used while the cooktop surface is hot.

Minerals in some water can be transferred onto the Electric Cooktop surface and cause stains. Apply undiluted white vinegar with a soft, clean cloth. Then, recondition with a glass cooktop cleaner.

Scratches - Unfortunately, scratches cannot be removed but your Electric Cooktop will continue to operate correctly. To help prevent scratches in the future, keep your Electric Cooktop and pan bases clean and dry and make sure your pots and pans do not have any rough or damaged areas.

Fractures and cracks - If your Electric Cooktop is fractured or cracked, it is no longer usable and you must switch off the fuse to prevent the risk of electric shock. We cannot accept warranty claims for scratches or fractures on the Electric Cooktop.

Do not use the following cleaners:

• Cleaners that contain ammonia or chlorine bleach
• Caustic cleaners (such as Easy Off®)
• Abrasive cleaners
• Dishwashing agents
• Metal scouring pads
• Scrub sponges
• Soap-filled scouring pads
• Flammable cleaners

These products can damage, scratch, and dull your Electric Cooktop.
