Cleaning and care
Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition, could lead to deterioration of the surface
that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous
condition. The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food deposits removed.
¾
Before you clean the microwave oven, turn it off and unplug it.
¾ Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food or liquids stick to the oven walls, wipe
with a damp cloth. We recommend that you do not use harsh detergent or abrasives.
¾ On the right hand side wall of the cavity is the wave guide cover. Microwaves are passed
through this c o v e r to enable your food to cook. It is important that the wave guide
cover is kept clean at all times. To do this wipe with mild detergent and water, then
dry. Do not remove the waveguide cover.
¾
You should clean the outside of the oven with a damp cloth and polish dry with a soft
dry cloth. Do not allow water to seep into the ventilation openings.
¾ Wipe the door and window on both sides, the door seals and adjacent parts
frequently with a damp cloth to remove any spills or spatters. Do not use an abrasive
cleaner.
¾ Do not allow the control panel to become wet. Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not
use detergents, abrasives or spray-on cleaners on the control panel.
¾
If steam builds up inside or around the outside of the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth.
This may happen when the microwave oven is used in humid conditions.
¾
If the inside of the oven smells, put a cup of water with the juice and the skin of one
lemon in a deep microwave bowl. Microwave it for three minutes, wipe the cavity walls
thoroughly and then dry with a soft cloth.
¾ Regularly clean the turntable support and oven floor. Simply wipe the bottom surface of
the oven with mild detergents and water, and then dry. You can wash the turntable
support in soapy water. Check that it is correctly fitted after cleaning.
¾
Regularly remove the glass tray to clean it, and wash in warm soapy water.
