to remove any visible signs of dirt, oil,
grease, etc. remaining from the
manufacturing process. Some stainless
steel parts may have a plastic protective
wrapper which must be peeled off. The
cooktop should be washed thoroughly
with hot, soapy water and then rinsed and
wiped dry to remove these film residues
and any installation dust or debris before
being used for food preparation.
