EXTERIOR
The outside surface is precoated steel and plastic. 
Clean the outside with mild soap and water; rinse and 
dry with a soft cloth. Do not use any type of household 
or abrasive cleaner.
DOOR
Be careful with the edge of the oven door as it is glass 
and could chip or break. Wipe the window on both sides 
with a damp cloth to remove any spills or spatters. 
Metal parts will be easier to maintain if wiped frequently 
with a damp cloth. Avoid the use of spray and other 
harsh cleaners as they may stain, streak or dull the 
door surface.
TOUCH CONTROL PANEL
Wipe the panel with a cloth dampened slightly with 
water only. Dry with a soft cloth. Do not scrub or use 
any sort of chemical cleaners. Close door and touch 
STOP/CLEAR.
INTERIOR
Cleaning is easy because little heat is generated to the 
interior surfaces; therefore, there is no baking and set-
ting of spills or spattering. To clean the interior surfaces, 
wipe with a soft cloth and warm water. DO NOT USE 
ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANERS OR SCOURING 
PADS. For heavier soil, use baking soda or a mild soap; 
rinse thoroughly with hot water. The rack can be cleaned 
with hot soapy water, rinsed and dried.
ODOR REMOVAL
Occasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the oven. 
To remove, combine 1 cup water, grated peel and juice 
of 1 lemon and several whole cloves in a 2-cup glass 
measuring cup. Boil for several minutes using 100% 
power. Allow to set in oven until cool. Wipe interior with 
a soft cloth.
TURNTABLE/TURNTABLE
SUPPORT
The turntable and turntable support can be removed 
for easy cleaning. Wash them in mild, sudsy water; for 
stubborn stains use a mild cleanser and non-abrasive 
scouring sponge. They are also dishwasher-proof. Use 
upper rack of dishwasher. The turntable motor shaft is 
not sealed, so excess water or spills should be wiped 
up immediately.

WAVEGUIDE COVER
The waveguide cover is located on the right side wall of 
the oven cavity. It is made from mica so requires special 
care. Keep the waveguide cover clean to assure good 
oven performance. Carefully wipe with a damp cloth any 
food spatters from the surface of the cover immediately 
after they occur. Built-up splashes may overheat and 
cause smoke or possibly catch fire. DO NOT REMOVE 
THE WAVEGUIDE COVER. 
GREASE FILTERS
Filters should be cleaned at least once a month. Never 
operate the fan or oven without the filters in place.
1. Pull down slightly on the tab toward the front of
the oven and remove the filter. Repeat for the other 
filter.
2. Soak the filters in a sink or dish pan filled with
hot water and detergent. DO NOT use ammonia or 
other alkali; they will react with the filter material and 
darken it.
3. Agitate and scrub with a brush to remove embedded
dirt.
4. Rinse thoroughly and shake dry.
5. Replace by fitting the filter back into the opening.
Grease filter
Tab
Disconnect the power cord before cleaning or leave the door open to inactivate the oven during cleaning.
