WARNING!

For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.

All ranges can tip and injury could result.

To prevent accidental tipping of the range, attach it to the wall and floor by installing the Anti-Tip device supplied.

If the Anti-Tip device supplied with the range does not fit this application, use the universal Anti-Tip device WB2X7909.

To check if the device is installed and engaged properly, remove the kick panel or storage drawer and inspect the rear leveling leg. Make sure it fits securely into the slot.

If you pull the range out from the wall for any reason, make sure the device is properly engaged when you push the range back against the wall. If it is not, there is a possible risk of the range tipping over and causing injury if you or a child stand, sit or lean on an open door.

Please refer to the Anti-Tip device information in this manual. Failure to take this precaution could result in tipping of the range and injury.

WARNING

ANTI-TIP DEVICE

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.

The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon monoxide during the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING!

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Do not operate the oven or cooktop controls if the glass is broken. Food splatter or cleaning solution may penetrate a broken control panel and create a risk of electrical shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately should your glass control panel become broken.

■ Do not store flammable materials in

an oven or near the cooktop.

■

CAUTION:

Items of interest to children should not be stored in cabinets above a range or on the backsplash of a range—children climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously injured.

■ Never wear loose-fitting or hanging

garments while using the appliance. Be careful when reaching for items stored over the range. Flammable material could be ignited if brought in contact with hot surface units or heating elements and may cause severe burns.

■ Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp

pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holders touch hot surface units or heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of pot holders.

■ Do not use water on grease fires. Never

pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely with a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

■Flaming grease outside a pan can be put

out by covering it with baking soda or, if available, by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

■Flame in the oven can be smothered

completely by closing the oven door and turning the oven off or by using a multipurpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

Consumer Support Troubleshooting Tips Care and Cleaning Operating Instructions Safety Instructions

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

■ For your safety, never use your appliance

for warming or heating the room.

■ Do not let cooking grease or other

flammable materials accumulate in or near the range.

■ Do not touch the surface units, the

heating elements or the interior surface of the oven. These surfaces may be hot enough to burn even though they are dark in color. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact the surface units, areas nearby the surface units or any interior area of the oven; allow sufficient time for cooling first.

■Potentially hot surfaces include the

cooktop, areas facing the cooktop, oven vent opening, surfaces near the opening, crevices around the oven door.

■

REMEMBER:

The inside surface of the oven

may be hot when the door is opened.

■ Do not store or use combustible materials,

gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

■ Keep the hood and grease filters clean

to maintain good venting and to avoid grease fires.

■ Teach children not to play with the

controls or any other part of the range.

■ Always keep dish towels, dishcloths, pot

holders and other linens a safe distance from your range.

■ Always keep wooden and plastic utensils

and canned food a safe distance from your range.

■ Always keep combustible wall coverings,

curtains or drapes a safe distance from your range.

WARNING!

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against foodborne illness.

COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY…

Use proper pan size—select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the surface unit to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface unit will also improve efficiency.

RADIANT SURFACE UNITS

■Never leave the surface units unattended

at high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.

■Only certain types of glass, glass ⁄ceramic,

earthenware or other glazed containers are suitable for cooktop service; others may break because of the sudden change in temperature.

■To minimize the possibility of burns,

ignition of flammable materials and spillage, the handle of a container should be turned toward the center of the range without extending over nearby surface units.

■Always turn the surface units off before

removing cookware.

■When preparing flaming foods under

the hood, turn the fan on.

■Use care when touching the cooktop. The

glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat after the controls have been turned off.

■Keep an eye on foods being fried at high

or medium high heat settings.

■Foods for frying should be as dry as

possible. Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan.

■Use little fat for effective shallow or deep

fat frying. Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spillovers when food is added.

■If a combination of oils or fats will be

used in frying, stir together before heating, or as fats melt slowly.

■Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.

■Use a deep fat thermometer whenever

possible to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point.

■Avoid scratching the glass cooktop.

The cooktop can be scratched with items such as sharp instruments, rings or other jewelry, and rivets on clothing.

■Do not operate the radiant surface units if

the glass is broken. Spillovers or cleaning solution may penetrate a broken cooktop and create a risk of electrical shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately should your glass cooktop become broken.

■Never use the glass cooktop surface as

a cutting board.

■Do not place or store items that can melt

or catch fire on the glass cooktop, even when it is not being used.

■Be careful when placing spoons or other

stirring utensils on glass cooktop surface when it is in use. They may become hot and could cause burns.

■Clean the cooktop with caution. If a wet

sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface unit, be careful to avoid steam burns. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

NOTE:

We recommend that you avoid wiping any surface unit areas until they have cooled and the indicator light has gone off.

Sugar spills are the exception

to this.

Please see the

Cleaning the glass

cooktop

section.

■When the cooktop is cool, use only

CERAMA BRYTE

Ceramic Cooktop

Cleaner and the CERAMA BRYTE

Cleaning Pad to clean the cooktop.

■To avoid possible damage to the cooking

surface, do not apply cleaning cream to the glass surface when it is hot.

■After cleaning, use a dry cloth or paper

towel to remove all cleaning cream residue.

■Read and follow all instructions and

warnings on the cleaning cream labels.

■Large scratches or impacts to glass doors

or cooktops can lead to broken or shattered glass.

■Do not leave any items on the cooktop.

The hot air from the vent may ignite flammable items and will increase pressure in closed containers, which may cause them to burst.

■Do not leave plastic items on the

cooktop—they may melt if left too close to the vent.

■Do not lift the cooktop. Lifting the

cooktop can lead to damage and improper operation of the range.

■ Pulling out the shelf to the stop-lock is a

convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also a

precaution against burns from touching hot surfaces of the door or oven walls.

■ Do not use the oven to dry newspapers.

If overheated, they can catch on fire.

■ Do not use the oven for a storage area. Items

stored in an oven can ignite.

■ Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils or

food in the oven when not in use.

■ Do not use aluminum foil to line oven bottoms.

Improper installation of aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

Stand away from the range when opening the oven door. Hot air or steam which escapes can cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.

WARNING!

OVEN

■The purpose of the warming drawer is to hold

hot cooked foods at serving temperature. Always start with hot food; cold food cannot be heated or cooked in the warming drawer.

■Do not use the drawer to dry newspapers.

If overheated, they can catch on fire.

■Do not leave paper products, plastics, canned

food, or combustible materials in the drawer.

■Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings in or

near your drawer.

■Do not warm food in the drawer for more than

two hours.

■

Do not touch the heating element or the interior surface of the drawer.

These surfaces may be hot

enough to burn.

REMEMBER:

The inside surface of the drawer

may be hot when the drawer is opened.

■Use care when opening the drawer. Open the

drawer a crack and let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food. Hot air or steam which escapes can cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.

■Do not use aluminum foil to line the warming

drawer. Foil is an excellent heat insulator and will trap heat beneath it. This will upset the performance of the drawer and it could damage the interior finish.

WARMING DRAWER

(on some models)

Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven. Residue from oven cleaners will damage the inside of the oven when the self-clean cycle is used.

■Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket is

essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.

■Before self-cleaning the oven, remove shiny,

silver-colored oven racks (on some models) and all other cookware.

■Gray porcelain-coated oven shelves (on some

models) may be cleaned in the oven during the self-clean cycle.

■Be sure to wipe off excess spillage before starting

the self-cleaning operation.

■If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the

oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have it serviced by a qualified technician.

■Clean only parts listed in this Owner’s Manual.

Temperature Limiter

Every radiant surface unit has a temperature limiter.

The temperature limiter protects the glass cooktop from getting too hot.

The temperature limiter may cycle the units off for a time if:

■

The pan boils dry.

■

The pan bottom is not flat.

■

The pan is off-center.

■

There is no pan on the unit.

Home Canning Tips

Be sure the canner is centered over the surface unit.

Make sure the canner is flat on the bottom. To prevent burns from steam or heat,

use caution when canning.

Use recipes and procedures from reputable sources. These are available from manufacturers such as Ball®and Kerr®and the Department of Agriculture Extension Service.

Flat-bottomed canners are recommended. Use of water bath canners with rippled bottoms may extend the time required to bring the water to a boil.

Use only flat-bottomed woks.

Wok Cooking

We recommend that you use only a flat-bottomed wok. They are available at your local retail store.

Do not use woks that have support rings.

Do not use round bottom woks. You could be seriously burned if the wok tipped over.

Using the surface units.

Throughout this manual, features and appearance may vary from your model.

Using the Warming Zone

The

WARMING ZONE

, located in the back center of the glass surface, will keep hot, cooked food at serving temperature. Always start with hot food. Do not use to heat cold food. Placing uncooked or cold food on the

WARMING ZONE

could result in food-borne

illness.

Push and turn the control knob to any desired setting.

For best results, all foods on the

WARMING ZONE

should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil. When warming pastries or breads, the cover should be vented to allow moisture to escape.

Always use pot holders or oven mitts when removing food from the

WARMING ZONE

since cookware and plates will be hot.

CAUTION: Do not warm food on the WARMING ZONE

for more than two hours.

NOTE: The surface warmer will not glow red like the

cooking elements.

HOT

surface indicator light will glow when the glass surface is hot and will remain on until the surface is cool enough to touch. Lower settings may not heat the glass surface enough to cause the

The following information will help you choose cookware which will give good performance on glass cooktops.

Never cook directly on the glass. Always use cookware.

About the radiant surface units…

The radiant cooktop features heating units beneath a smooth glass surface.

NOTE: A slight odor is normal when a new cooktop is used for the first time. It is caused by the heating of new parts and insulating materials and will disappear in a short time.

NOTE: On models with light-colored glass cooktops, it is normal for the cooking zones to change color when hot or cooling down. This is temporary and will disappear as the glass cools to room temperature.

The surface unit will cycle on and off to maintain your selected control setting.

It is safe to place hot cookware on the glass surface even when the cooktop is cool.

Even after the surface units are turned off, the glass cooktop retains enough heat to continue cooking. To avoid overcooking, remove pans from the surface units when the food is cooked. Avoid placing anything on the surface unit until it has cooled completely.

Do not slide cookware across the cooktop because it can scratch the glass—the glass is scratch-resistant, not scratchproof.

■

Water stains (mineral deposits) are removable using the cleaning cream or full-strength white vinegar.

■

Use of window cleaner may leave an iridescent film on the cooktop. The cleaning cream will remove this discoloration.

■

Don’t store heavy items above the cooktop. If they drop onto the cooktop, they can cause damage.

■

Do not use the surface as a cutting board.

Selecting types of cookware.

Stainless Steel:

recommended

Aluminum:

heavy weight recommended

Good conductivity. Aluminum residues sometimes appear as scratches on the cooktop, but can be removed if cleaned immediately. Because of its low melting point, thin weight aluminum should not be used.

Copper Bottom:

recommended

Copper may leave residues which can appear as scratches. The residues can be removed, as long as the cooktop is cleaned immediately. However, do not let these pots boil dry. Overheated metal can bond to glass cooktops. An overheated copper bottom pot will leave a residue that will permanently stain the cooktop if not removed immediately.

Porcelain Enamel-Covered Cast Iron:

recommended

As long as the cookware is covered completely with porcelain enamel, this cookware is recommended. Caution is recommended for cast iron cookware that is not completely covered with smooth porcelain enamel, since it may scratch the glass ceramic cooktop.

Glass-Ceramic:

usable, but not recommended

Poor performance. May scratch the surface.

Stoneware:

usable, but not recommended

Poor performance. May scratch the surface.

Check pans for flat bottoms by using a straight edge.

Pans with rounded, curved, ridged or warped bottoms are not recommended.

To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the desired position before you turn the oven on.

Before you begin…

The shelves have stop-locks, so that when placed correctly on the shelf supports (A through F), they will stop before coming completely out, and will not tilt.

When placing and removing cookware, pull the shelf out to the bump on the shelf support.

To remove a shelf,

pull it toward you, tilt the

front end up and pull it out.

To replace,

place the end of the shelf (stop-locks) on the support, tilt up the front and push the shelf in.

CAUTION: When you are using the shelf in the lowest position (A), you will need to use caution when pulling the shelf out. We recommend that you pull the shelf out several inches and then, using two pot holders, pull the shelf out by holding the sides of it. The shelf is low and you could be burned if you place your hand in the middle of the shelf and pull all the way out. Be very careful not to burn your hand on the door when using the shelf in the lowest position (A).

The oven has 6 shelf positions.

Preheating and Pan Placement

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads.

To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature. The control will beep when the oven is preheated and the display will show your set temperature. This will take approximately 15–20 minutes.

Baking results will be better if baking pans are centered in the oven as much as possible. If baking with more than one pan, place the pans so each has at least

1″ to 11⁄2″ of air space around it.

If baking four cake layers at the same time, place two layers on rack B and two layers on rack D. Stagger pans on the rack so one is not directly above the other.

Using the oven.

Do not place foods directly on the oven floor.

Aluminum Foil

Do not use aluminum foil on the bottom of the oven.

Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat circulation and result in poor baking.

A smaller sheet of foil may be used to catch a spillover by placing it on a lower shelf several inches below the food.

Adjust the oven thermostat—Do it yourself!

You may find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few weeks to become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the thermostat yourself.

Do not use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven. These thermometers may vary 20–40 degrees.

NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the broiling or the self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be retained in memory after a power failure.

The type of margarine will affect baking performance!

Most recipes for baking have been developed using high-fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher-fat product.

Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low-fat spreads. The lower the fat content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.

Federal standards require products labeled “margarine” to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low-fat spreads, on the other hand, contain less fat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affects the texture and flavor of baked goods. For best results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least 70% vegetable oil.

To Adjust the Thermostat

Touch the

BAKE

and

BROIL HI/LO

pads at the same time until the display shows

SF.

Touch the

BAKE

pad. A two-digit

number shows in the display.

The oven temperature can be adjusted up to (+) 35°F hotter or (–) 35°F cooler. Touch the +pad to increase the temperature in 1-degree increments.

When Using the Warming Drawer

The warming drawer will keep hot, cooked foods warm. Always start with hot food. Do not use to heat cold food other than crisping crackers, chips or dry cereal.

Do not line the warming drawer or pan with aluminum foil. Foil is an excellent heat insulator and will trap heat beneath it. This will upset the performance of the drawer and could damage the interior finish.

Allow approximately 25 minutes for the warming drawer to preheat.

■ Do not put liquid or water in the

warming drawer.

■ All foods placed in the warming

drawer should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil. When warming pastries or breads, the cover should be vented to allow moisture to escape.

■ Food should be kept hot in its cooking

container or transferred to a heat-safe serving dish.

CAUTION: Plastic containers or plastic wrap will melt if in direct contact with the drawer, pan or a hot utensil. Melted plastic may not be removable and is not covered under your warranty.

Before a Clean Cycle

We recommend venting your kitchen with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood during the first self-clean cycle.

Remove broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven.

NOTE:

■ If your oven is equipped with shiny,

silver-colored oven shelves, remove them before you begin the self-clean cycle.

■ If your oven is equipped with gray

porcelain-coated oven shelves, they may be left in the oven during the self-clean cycle.

The shiny, silver-colored oven shelves (on some models) can be self-cleaned, but they will darken, lose their luster and become hard to slide.

Soil on the front frame of the range and outside the gasket on the door will need to be cleaned by hand. Clean these areas with hot water, soap-filled scouring pads or cleansers such as Soft Scrub®. Rinse well with clean water and dry.

Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass material of the oven door gasket cannot withstand abrasion. It is essential for the gasket to remain intact. If you notice it becoming worn or frayed, replace it.

Wipe up any heavy spillovers on the oven bottom.

Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place and the oven light is off.

IMPORTANT:

The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any range. Move birds to another wellventilated room.

Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom.

How to Remove Protective Shipping Film and Packaging Tape

Carefully grasp a corner of the protective shipping film with your fingers and slowly peel it from the appliance surface. Do not use any sharp items to remove the film. Remove all of the film before using the appliance for the first time.

To assure no damage is done to the finish of the product, the safest way to remove the adhesive from packaging tape on new appliances is an application of a household liquid dishwashing detergent. Apply with a soft cloth and allow to soak.

NOTE: The adhesive must be removed from all parts. It cannot be removed if it is baked on.

If your range is removed for cleaning, servicing or any reason, be sure the anti-tip device is reengaged properly when the range is replaced. Failure to take this precaution could result in tipping of the range and cause injury.

Oven Vent

The oven vent is located behind the right rear surface unit.

This area could become hot during oven use.

It is normal for steam to come out of the vent, and moisture may collect underneath it when the oven is in use.

The vent is important for proper air circulation. Never block this vent.

Control Knobs

The control knobs may be removed for easier cleaning.

Make sure the knobs are in the

The knobs can be cleaned in a dishwasher or they may also be washed with soap and water. Make sure the inside of the knobs are dry before replacing.

Care and cleaning of the range.

Lift-Off Oven Door

The door is very heavy. Be careful when removing and lifting the door.

Do not lift the door by the handle.

To remove the door:

Fully open the door.

Pull the hinge locks down toward the door frame, to the unlocked position. A tool, such as a small flatblade screwdriver, may be required.

Firmly grasp both sides of the door at the top.

Close door to the door removal position, which is halfway between the broil stop position and fully closed.

Lift door up and out until the hinge arm is clear of the slot.

To replace the door:

Firmly grasp both sides of the door at the top.

With the door at the same angle as the removal position, seat the indentation of the hinge arm into the bottom edge of the hinge slot. The notch in the hinge arm must be fully seated into the bottom of the slot.

Fully open the door. If the door will not fully open, the indentation is not seated correctly in the bottom edge of the slot.

Push the hinge locks up against the front frame of the oven cavity to the locked position.

Close the oven door.

To clean the inside of the door:

■ Do not allow excess water to run into

any holes or slots in the door.

■ Because the area inside the gasket is

cleaned during the self-clean cycle, you do not need to clean this by hand.

■ The area outside the gasket and

the door liner can be cleaned with a soap-filled plastic pad, hot water and detergent. Rinse well with a vinegar and water solution.

To clean the outside of the door:

■ Use soap and water to thoroughly

clean the top, sides and front of the oven door. Rinse well. You may also use a glass cleaner to clean the glass on the outside of the door. Do not let water drip into the vent openings.

■ If any stain on the door vent trim is

persistent, use a soft abrasive cleaner and a sponge-scrubber for best results.

■ Spillage of marinades, fruit juices,

tomato sauces and basting materials containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up immediately. When surface is cool, clean and rinse.

■ Do not use oven cleaners, cleaning

powders or harsh abrasives on the outside of the door.

The gasket is designed with a gap at the bottom to allow for proper air circulation.

Do not rub or clean the door gasket—it has an extremely low resistance to abrasion.

If you notice the gasket becoming worn, frayed or damaged in any way or if it has become displaced on the door, you should have it replaced.

Control Panel

It’s a good idea to wipe the control panel after each use of the oven. Use a damp cloth to clean or rinse. For cleaning, use mild soap and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar and water. For rinsing, use clean water. Polish dry with a soft cloth.

Oven Shelves

All oven shelves may be cleaned by hand with an abrasive cleaner or steel wool. After cleaning, rinse the shelves with clean water and dry with a clean cloth. Gray porcelain-coated oven shelves may remain in the oven during the selfcleaning cycle without being damaged. The shiny, silver-colored oven shelves may remain in the oven during the selfcleaning cycle, but they will lose their luster and become hard to slide.

It will be necessary to grease all oven shelf side edges with a light coating of vegetable oil after cleaning them by hand or in the oven. This will help maintain the ease of sliding the shelves in and out of the oven.

WARNING: DAMAGE to your glass surface

may occur if you use scrub pads other than those recommended.

Allow the cooktop to cool.

Spread a few drops of CERAMA BRYTE®Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner on the entire burned residue area.

Using the included CERAMA BRYTE®Cleaning Pad for Ceramic Cooktops, rub the residue area, applying pressure as needed.

If any residue remains, repeat the steps listed above as needed.

For additional protection, after all residue has been removed, polish the entire surface with CERAMA BRYTE

NOTE: Do not use a dull or nicked blade.

Heavy, Burned-On Residue

Use a CERAMA BRYTE®Cleaning Pad for Ceramic Cooktops.

Normal Daily Use Cleaning

ONLY use CERAMA BRYTE®Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner on the glass cooktop. Other creams may not be as effective.

To maintain and protect the surface of your glass cooktop, follow these steps:

Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean it with CERAMA BRYTE®Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner. This helps protect the top and makes cleanup easier.

Daily use of CERAMA BRYTE

Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner will help keep the cooktop looking new.

Shake the cleaning cream well. Apply a few drops of CERAMA BRYTE

Cleaning the glass cooktop.

Turn off all surface units. Remove hot pans.

Wearing an oven mitt: a. Use a single-edge razor blade

scraper (CERAMA BRYTE

Ceramic Cooktop Scraper) to move the spill to a cool area on the cooktop.

b. Remove the spill with

paper towels.

Any remaining spillover should be left until the surface of the cooktop has cooled.

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.

Damage from Sugary Spills and Melted Plastic

Our testing shows that if you are cooking high sugar mixtures such as jelly or fudge and have a spillover, it can cause permanent damage to the glass surface unless the spillover is immediately removed.

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 CERAMA BRYTE®Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner with the CERAMA BRYTE®Cleaning Pad for Ceramic Cooktops.

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.

CAUTION: Carefully check the bottom of pans for roughness that would scratch the cooktop.
