of the knobs are dry before replacing.
Replace the knobs in the OFF position

How to Remove Packaging Tape
To assure no damage is done to the finish
of the product, the safest way to remove
the 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 all
chrome trim. It cannot be removed if it is baked on.

units are turned off and are cool before
raising the cooktop.

and drip pans and use this opening
to grasp the cooktop. See the Surface

Raise the support rod into place and
hook it onto the front lip of the
cooktop to hold it in place while
cleaning.
To clean the cooktop:

powder. Rinse well, then polish with a
dry cloth.

While holding the cooktop up with
one hand, carefully disengage the
