Care and cleaning
The oven must always be clean. Residue of food
from spillovers or spatters will attract microwave
energy causing it to burn on. This could reduce
the efficiency of the oven and may cause bad
odours.
Do not attempt to tamper with or make any
adjustments or repairs to any part of the oven.
Repairs should only be done by a qualified
service technician.
Be sure the oven is off or the unit is
unplugged before cleaning.
Cleaning the accessories
(turntable and support)
Clean them with mild detergent after removing
them for the cavity. Turntable support should be
carefully handled.
CAUTION: The inside of the oven and turntable
get very hot, so do not touch them immediately
after use.
Cleaning the interior
Always keep the inside of the oven clean. Wipe up
spillovers and food spatters immediately. Soil that
is allowed to remain on the oven walls, door seal
and door surface will absorb microwave energy,
reduce the efficiency of the oven, and possibly
damage the oven interior. Use mild, liquid
detergent, warm water and a soft, clean cloth to
remove soil.
NEVER USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS,
COMMERCIAL OVEN CLEANERS OR STEEL
WOOL PADS ON ANY PART OF THE
MICROWAVE OVEN.
To loosen difficult soil, boil a cup of water in the
microwave oven for 2 or 3 minutes.
NEVER USE A KNIFE OR ANY UTENSIL TO
REMOVE SOIL FROM OVEN SURFACES.
To remove odours from the oven interior, boil a
cup of water plus 2 tablespoons of lemon juice
for 5 minutes.
Cleaning the exterior
Open the oven door when cleaning the control
panel. This will prevent the oven from being turned
on accidentally. You should clean outside surfaces
of the oven with mild liquid detergent and water
followed by a wiping with clear water to remove any
excess detergent. Dry with a soft cloth.
Spray-on window cleaners or all purpose spray-on
kitchen cleaners can also be used. Never use
abrasive cleaners, scouring pads or harsh
chemicals on outside surfaces of your oven. To
prevent damage to the working parts, do not allow
water to seep into ventilation openings.
