Care and cleaning of the cooktop. Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the cooktop. How to Remove Protective Shipping Film and Packaging Tape Carefully grasp a corner of the protective shipping film with your fingers and slowly peel it from the appliance surface. Do not use any sharp items to remove the film. 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. Vent Grille Before cleaning the vent grille, be sure the exhaust blower is turned off. To clean the vent grille, remove it from the cooktop by lifting it up and off. Wipe with a damp cloth. If necessary, the vent grille can be washed in the sink. Use dishwashing liquid for cleaning. Do not use abrasive cleaners. They will damage the vent grille's finish. Do not clean the vent grille in the dishwasher. Vent Filter and Chamber The filter is held in place at an angle with a hold bump. Lift the filter up and out of the vent opening diagonally.
