To clean the cooktop, first ensure it is cool. Use a soft cloth with warm soapy water for routine cleaning. Avoid abrasive cleaners and scouring pads as they can damage the surface. For stubborn stains, a cooktop cleaner designed for glass-ceramic surfaces can be used.
Ensure that the cooktop is properly connected to a power source. Check if the control knobs are set correctly. If the issue persists, inspect the burners for any debris or damage and clean if necessary. Consider consulting a technician if the problem is not resolved.
To prevent scratches, use cookware with smooth, flat bottoms. Avoid sliding pots and pans across the cooktop. Regularly clean the surface to remove particles that can cause scratches.
A clicking noise is normal when the cooktop is heating up or cooling down due to metal parts expanding and contracting. If the noise is persistent or loud, check for loose parts or contact a service technician.
Yes, cast iron cookware can be used, but ensure it is well-maintained to avoid rough spots that can scratch the cooktop. Always lift the cookware instead of sliding it across the surface.
To unlock the control panel, press and hold the lock button for three seconds. This should disable the lock function and allow you to use the cooktop controls.
For simmering, start with a medium-high setting to bring the liquid to a boil, then reduce to a low setting to maintain a gentle simmer. Adjust as necessary to prevent overcooking.
It is recommended to perform a basic maintenance check every 6 months. This includes inspecting the burners, cleaning the surface, and checking the electrical connections for any signs of wear or damage.
Turn off the cooktop and remove any cookware. Once power is restored, check that the cooktop is functioning properly before resuming use.
Yes, it is normal for new cooktops to emit a slight odor during the first few uses as factory coatings and residues burn off. Ensure good ventilation to dissipate the smell.
