Cleaning and care
BEFORE CLEANING the microwave, ENSURE 
THAT THE PLUG IS NOT IN THE SOCKET. 
After using the appliance, let it cool off. Do not 
clean the appliance with abrasive cleaning 
products, scourers that will scratch the surface or 
sharp objects. 
Outer surface: 
1. 
Clean the outer surface with a neutral 
detergent, lukewarm water and a damp cloth. 
2. Do not allow water to pass through the outer
structure.
Inside: 
1. After each use, clean the inside walls with a 
damp cloth.
2. Do not allow water to enter the ventilation holes
of the microwave oven.
3. If it has been some time since the last cleaning
and the cavity of the microwave oven is dirty, 
put a glass of water on the tray and connect the 
microwave at maximum power for 4 minutes. 
The steam that is released will soften the dirt, 
which will be easy to clean with a soft cloth. 
Important!
The appliance should not be
cleaned with steam cleaning machines. The 
steam may reach the charged parts and cause 
a short circuit. 
The most soiled stainless steel surfaces may
be cleaned using a non-abrasive cleaning 
product. 
Then they should be rinsed with hot water and
dried well.
4. Clean accessories after each use. If they are
very dirty, steep them first and then use a brush 
and a sponge. The accessories may be 
washed in the dishwasher. Ensure that the 
rotating plate and respective base are always 
clean. 
Door, door-hinges and front of the appliance: 
1. These parts must always be clean, 
especially the contact surfaces between the 
door and the front of the appliance, so that 
there are no leaks.
2.
To clean, use a neutral detergent and 
lukewarm water. Dry with a soft cloth. 
Mica covers:
Always keep the mica covers clean. Food 
remaining in the covers may deform it or 
produce sparks if they go on fire. Therefore, 
they should be cleaned on a regular basis, but 
abrasive cleaning products or sharp objects 
should not be used. Do not remove the covers, 
to avoid any risk.
