| Of course, you'll want to keep your black glass gleaming
without messy drop pans or clumsy burners and grids to worry about. It's so much easier.
You can clean it more often with less effort than ever before. To make it as easy as
possible, follow these simple precautions: SAVE ON CLEAN-LIP TIME:
 | Make sure bottom of cook ware and cooking area are clean and dry. |
 | Select correct heat settings and use cook ware large enough to accommodate food and
liquid to eliminate boil overs and spattering, |
 | If possible, wipe up food spills and spatters from adjacent heating areas before using
such areas for cooking. |
 | Use a spatter shield when shallow frying. |
DAILY CARE:
Use Elco Cook Top Cleaning Creme daily. As it cleans, it leaves a protective coating of
silicone on the smooth surface which helps prevent scratches and abrasions in which food
particles can collect. It also helps prevent build-up of mineral deposits and will make
future cleaning easier.
 | Apply a dab of Cleaning Creme in center of each unit to be cleaned. |
 | Dampen clean paper towel and clean unit. |
 | Wipe off this application with another clean, damp paper towel, and then wipe with a dry
towel. |
REMEMBER:
 | If a wet paper towel is used to remove boil overs from a warm cooking area, use a mitt
to avoid steam burns, |
 | Never mix household cleaning products! Chemical mixtures may interact with objectionable
or even hazardous results. |
 | Do not use sponge or dish cloth (unless used exclusively for cleaning cooktop surface).
It may leave film of soil-laden detergent water on heating area which may turn brown and
resemble a discoloration next time area is heated. If that should happen. Cook Top
Cleaning Creme will remove |
