Maintenance Tips

• Clean after every use: Wipe the smooth glass surface once cool to prevent grease or sugar from bonding and causing permanent marks.
• Use non-abrasive cleaners only: Stick to microfiber cloths and induction-safe glass cleaners to protect the scratch-sensitive surface.
• Avoid burnt-on spills: Induction heats the pan, not the surface, so spills don’t burn immediately—cleaning right away keeps it looking new.
• Keep touch controls dry: Wipe the control panel gently and avoid excess moisture to maintain responsiveness and prevent false inputs.
• Ensure proper cookware contact: Use flat, induction-compatible cookware to avoid strain on sensors and maintain even heating performance.
• Don’t use harsh chemicals: Avoid oven cleaners, ammonia-based sprays, or abrasive pads that can dull or damage the glass finish.
• Prevent scratches: Lift cookware instead of sliding it across the surface, especially cast iron or heavy pots.
• Maintain ventilation space: Keep airflow around installation clear to prevent overheating of internal electronics.
