Caring for Ceramic Glass

Like stainless steel, ceramic glass cooktops can be easily damaged if the proper care is not taken. To avoid permanent damage, there are a few simple things to remember. Read on to find out how easy it is to keep your cooktop in pristine condition!

1. WIPE over your cooktop after every cooking session with a non-scratching cleaner (eg Cerapol). This is important as it will remove all spills and stains - even the ones you can't see, such as metallic sheen from cookware bottoms. The use of Cerapol will prevent etching from spills & baked-on foods and staining caused by cookware bottoms & hard water marks.

2. ONLY use a non-scratching cleaner (eg Cerapol) & a soft cloth to clean your cooktop, or else you will cause damage to the surface through etching & scratching.

This means

• NO aggressive powder or abrasive cream cleaners
• NO caustic cleaners or oven sprays
• NO general household cleaners
• NO scourers or steel wool

3. ALWAYS clean off sugary spills immediatley - do not allow to bake on. They will erode the surface whilst cooling, causing permanent damage. After removing the spill with the Cooktop Scraper, allow to cool and then clean with a non-scratch cleaner (eg Cerapol).

To prevent scratches on your ceramic glass cooktop the following rules apply to using cookware on your ceramic glass cooktop.

1. CLEAN your cookware bottoms regularly to remove gritty particles & hard-water stains
2. ALWAYS lift cookware- do not slide over the cooktop surface
3. AVOID using cookware with rough, warped or dented bottoms
4. DO NOT drop heavy cookware on the ceramic glass surface
