SCHOTT CERAN® Use & Care Guide
Your SCHOTT CERAN® cooking surface is developed to be easy to use and to look
great. The following hints and tips will help you to keep it that way for a long time to
come. SCHOTT CERAN® cooktop panels can stand up to plenty of wear and tear if
you follow the simple instructions provided in this manual.
SCHOTT CERAN® is made of exceptionally durable, long-lasting glass ceramic. The
flat surface lets you move pots and pans around safely with almost no risk of spills or
overturning.
SCHOTT CERAN® cooking surfaces are easy to clean
Tip: Clean your SCHOTT CERAN® cooking surface regularly, preferably after each
time you use it.
1. First remove any burnt-on deposits or spilled
food from your SCHOTT CERAN® cooking
surface with a suitable metal razor scraper
(similar to scraping paint off of your
windowpanes in your home - it will not damage
the decorated cooking surface). Hold the
scraper at approximately a 30° angle to the
cooktop. For your safety, please wear a mitt
potholder while using the metal scraper.
2. When the cooking surface has cooled down
apply a few dabs (about the size of a dime) of
an approved cleaner in each burner area and
work the cleaning cream over the cooktop
surface with a damp paper towel as if you were
cleaning a window.
3. As a final step, clean with clear water and wipe
the cooktop surface with a clean, dry paper
towel.
Important: If any sugar or food containing sugar (preserves, ketchup, tomato
sauce, etc.), a plastic item or kitchen foil accidentally melts on the hot surface of
your cooktop, remove the molten material IMMEDIATELY with a metal razor
scraper (it will not damage the decorated cooking surface) while the cooking
surface is still hot to avoid the risk of damage to the SCHOTT CERAN® surface.
For your safety please wear a mitt potholder while cleaning the hot cooking surface.
