CARE AND CLEANING
IMPORTANT
Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur
if you use an abrasive type cleaning pad. Only
use cleaning products that have been specifically
designed for ceramic glass cooktops.
WARNING
Never cover any slots, holes, or passages in the
oven bottom or cover an entire oven rack with
materials such as aluminum foil. Aluminum foil
linings may trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
WARNING
Protective Liners — Do not use aluminum foil to
line the oven bottom. Improper installation of
these liners may result in risk of electric shock or
fire.

Cooktop Maintenance (cont)
Aluminum Foil and Utensils
IMPORTANT
Aluminum foil - Use of aluminum foil on a hot
cooktop can damage the cooktop. Do not use
thin aluminum cooking utensils or allow alumi-
num foil to touch the surface elements under any
circumstances.
Aluminum utensils - The melting point of alu-
minum is much lower than that of other metals.
Care must be taken when aluminum pots or pans
are used on the cooktop. If aluminum pans are
allowed to boil dry when using the cooktop, not
only will the utensil be damaged or destroyed,
but it may fuse to, break, or mark the ceramic
glass surface, permanently damaging the cook-
top surface.
