Maintenance Tips

• Clean the glass‑ceramic cooktop after each use with a soft microfiber cloth and non‑abrasive glass/ceramic cleaner to remove residues and prevent scratches.

• Wipe spills promptly once the surface has cooled; avoid abrasive pads and harsh detergents that can dull the cooktop.

• For stubborn spots, apply a ceramic cooktop cleaner and gently scrape at a 30° angle with a dedicated scraper on a cool surface.

• Dry thoroughly after cleaning to prevent streaks and water spots.

• Use induction‑compatible cookware with flat, magnetic bases for even heating and to protect the surface.

• Avoid dragging cookware across the cooktop to reduce scratch risk.

• Clean the control panel and knobs with a damp soft cloth; avoid harsh chemicals that can fade markings.

• Wipe exterior trim with mild soap and water; use a stainless‑steel or finish‑safe cleaner for heavier soils.

• Run the oven’s self‑clean cycle periodically to burn off interior residue (remove racks before cleaning and wipe ash after).

• Check and tighten mounting hardware/anti‑tip bracket after moving the range to maintain stability
