How to 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 must be removed from the
chrome trim on cooktop parts. It cannot be removed
after the cooktop has been heated.

Write down the model and serial numbers.

You’ll find them on a label on the wire cover under
the cooktop. It is visible when the cooktop is raised. 

These numbers are also on the Consumer Product
Ownership Registration Card that came with your
cooktop. Before sending in this card, please write
these numbers here:

Model Number

Serial Number

Use these numbers in any correspondence or service
calls concerning your cooktop.

If you received a damaged cooktop…

Immediately contact the dealer (or builder) that sold
you the cooktop.

Save time and money.
