Remove
packaging
tape

To assure no damage is done to the finish of
the product, the safest way to remove adhesive
left from packaging tape on new appliances is
an application of a household liquid
dishwashing detergent, mineral oil or cooking
oil. Apply with a soft cloth and allow to soak.
Wipe dry and then apply an appliance polish 
to thoroughly clean and protect the surface.

NOTE:

The plastic tape adhesive must be removed

from all glass areas. It cannot be removed if it is 
baked on.
