damagethe surface and pan.
• Never usecod<top as a work surfaceor
cutting board. Never cook food direcdy
on the surface.
• Never placea trivet or wok ring between
the surface and pan. These items can
mark or etch the top.
• Do not slide metal pans across a hot
surface.The pansmay leavemarks which
can be difficuk to remove or leave per-
manent marks. Any marks should be
removed promptly. (See Cleaning, page
5.)
° Hake sure the surface and the pan bot-
tom are dean and smooth before turning
on to prevent scratches.

glass-ceramictop, do not leavesugar,salt
or fats on the cooking area. Wipe the
cod<top surface with a dean cloth or
paper towel before using.
° Never use a soiled dish cloth or sponge
to dean the cooktop surface. A film wiii
remain which may cause stains on the
cooking surface after the area is heated.
° Do not use a sinai[ pan on a large ele-
ment. Not only does this waste energy,
but it can also resuk in spiiiovers burning
onto the cooking area which requires
extra cleaning
° Do not use non-flat specialty items that
are oversized or uneven such as round
bottom woks, rippled bottom and/or
oversized canners and griddles.

° Do not allow spills to remain on the
cooking area or the cooktop trim for a
long period of time.
• Do not use abrasive cleansing powders
or scouring pads which will scratch the

" Do not use
chlorine bleach,
ammonia
or
other cleansers not specifically recom-
mended for useon glass-ceramic.
• To retain the appearance of the glass-
ceramic cooktop, dean after each use.
Glass-ceramic surfaces retain heat.
Turn the dement off a few minutes
before food is completely cooked and
use the retained heat to complete the
cooking.
Becauseof the heat retention charac-
teristics, the dements will not respond
to changesin settings asquickly ascoil
dements, tn the event ore potential
boilover, remove the pan from the
cooking area.
To achieveoptimum cooking performance,
use heavy-gauge, f iat, smooth bottom pans
that conform to the diameter of the cook-
ing area. ( See "Cooking
Made Simple"
for cod<ware characteristics and recom-
mendations.)
