Cleaning Ceramic Glass Cooktop - Gas Cooktop

Possible Solutions

Cleaning Method:

IMPORTANT:

  • Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off.
  • Always follow label instructions on cleaning products.
  • To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not use steel wool, abrasive powder cleansers, chlorine bleach, rust remover, or ammonia.

Burned-on soils can be removed from the ceramic glass cooktop surface by following 3 steps: 

Step 1:  Remove food/residue with a scraper designed for ceramic glass cooktops.

  • For best results, use a scraper while the cooktop is still warm, but not hot to the touch.  It is recommended to wear an oven mitt while scraping the warm cooktop. 

  • Hold the scraper at approximately a 45° angle against the glass surface and scrape the residue.  It will be necessary to apply pressure to remove the residue.

  • Allow the cooktop to cool down before proceeding to Step 2. 

Step 2: Apply a few dime-sized drops of affresh® cooktop cleaner / ceramic glass cooktop cleaner to the affected areas.

  • Allow the cleaner to dry to a white haze before proceeding to Step 3. 

Step 3: Polish with a clean, dry cloth or a clean, dry paper towel.
