VXUIDFH'RQRWXVHDQ\VKDUSLWHPVWRUHPRYHWKHILOP
Remove all of the film before using the appliance for the
first time.
To assure no damage is done to the finish of the
product, the safest way to remove the adhesive from
packaging tape on new appliances is an application of
a household liquid dishwashing detergent. Apply with a
soft cloth and allow to soak.
NOTE: The adhesive must be removed from all parts. It
cannot be removed if it is baked on.
