It is very important to choose proper products for the smooth top stove. We suggest to choose a special electric stovetop cleaner that is in the paste or cream form and does not have a strong tendency to splash or leave marks on the surface. Avoid using too much cleaner as this may result in accumulation of cleaner on different parts of the stove and may lead to some form of damage. You should be able  to find a product that you are comfortable with and that can deliver the best results at a price that you can afford.
It is also very important to choose the right sponge for this task. We suggest  that you use a soft and non-abrasive sponge when cleaning your electric stovetop so that you  do not scratch the surface of your stove. It is also good to dry the surface completely with soft cloths after cleaning to prevent leaving water streaks or spots on the surface.
