Maintenance Tips
-
Clean the glass‑ceramic cooktop after each use with a soft cloth and non‑abrasive cleaner to prevent residue buildup and scratching.
-
Wipe spills promptly once the surface is cool; avoid abrasive pads or harsh detergents that can damage the cooktop.
-
For stubborn spots, use a ceramic cooktop cleaner and a razor scraper gently at a 30° angle on a cool surface.
-
Dry thoroughly after cleaning to avoid water spots and maintain the red finish.
-
Use induction‑compatible cookware with flat, magnetic bases to ensure efficient heating and protect the surface.
-
Clean the control panel and knobs with a damp, soft cloth; avoid harsh chemicals that can fade markings.
-
Wipe stainless trim with mild soap and water; use a stainless steel cleaner for heavier soil if applicable.
-
Run the oven’s self‑clean cycle periodically to burn off interior residue (remove racks before cleaning and wipe ash after).
-
Avoid commercial oven solvents or lining the oven with foil, as they can damage finishes.
-
Check and tighten mounting hardware and anti‑tip bracket after moving the range.
