Clean and care for your Samsung electric cooktop
Although they are different from traditional gas cooktops, taking care of your electric or induction cooktop doesn't have to be too hard. This guide will explain everything you need to do (or avoid doing) to keep the glass cooktop looking pristine, so it will last for years to come.
Note: Clean the cooktop before using it for the first time.
Clean your cooktop
While preventative measures are super important, cleaning your cooktop after each use or immediately after a spill is just as critical. For the best results, clean any messes right away. This will make it easier to remove spilled food and prevent tougher stains from forming later.
Before cleaning, make sure to turn off the cooktop and wait until it has cooled down.
Choose a cleaning method:
Glass cleaner: The preferred method for most stains is to use cleaning products designed for this, such as Cerama Bryte and Weiman.
Baking soda and vinegar: Certain types of stains, such as mineral bubbles, are easier to remove with a baking soda and vinegar solution. It's best to use a spray bottle to help apply the vinegar evenly.
Spread the glass cleaner or baking soda over the affected area. If using baking soda and vinegar, spray down the baking soda with the spray bottle with vinegar in it.
For the baking soda and vinegar method: soak a towel in soapy water, wring it out, and place it over the cooktop. If using glass cleaner: you can skip this step, or soak the towel in the glass cleaner instead. (This uses a lot of glass cleaner, though.)
Wait 15 minutes.
Remove the soaking towel (if you used one), and then wipe the surface with a clean, dry towel or cloth. You may need to forcefully rub at the stains to encourage them to separate from the cooktop.
If the cooktop’s surface is heavily soiled, it may be difficult to remove the debris with glass cleaner alone. You can use a glass-cleaning blade scraper instead, which is often included with glass cleaner kits. Make sure you always use a fresh blade to prevent scratching the glass, and check that the blade is sharp with even edges. If this still does not remove the stain, it is likely to be the kind of stain that will respond better to baking soda and vinegar instead.
