Food spillovers with a high sugar content such as jellies, fudge and candy syrups must be removed immediately, before cooling, as they can cause permanent damage to the cooktop. Plastics and aluminium foil can also cause pitting and must never be allowed to melt on. Special care should be taken when removing hot substances. Turn off all surface units affected by the spillover and remove the hot pans. Wearing an oven mitt to hold the scraper, scrape the spill to a cool area of the cook top and use a paper towel to remove any excess. Clean the surface unit when cool. Do not continue to use the soiled area until all the spillover has been removed. Remember some foods e.g. peas and turnip, have a naturally high sugar content. Metallic stains Copper based or aluminium saucepans may cause metallic staining. These stains show as a metallic sheen on the cooktop.

The use of a conditioner will help prevent damage if applied after every use. Cleaning the stainless steel frame Use warm soapy water for cleaning when the cooktop is cold.
