How to Clean the Outside

Do not use cleaners containing ammonia or alcohol on the microwave 

oven. Ammonia or alcohol can damage the appearance of the micro-

wave.

Case

Clean the outside of the microwave with a sudsy cloth. Rinse and then 

dry. Wipe the window clean with a damp cloth.

Control Panel and Door

Wipe with a damp cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not use cleaning sprays, 

large amounts of soap and water, abrasives or sharp objects on the 

panel—they can damage it. Some paper towels can also scratch the 

control panel.

Door Surface

It’s important to keep the area clean where the door seals against the 

microwave. Use only mild, nonabrasive detergents applied with a clean 

sponge or soft cloth. Rinse well.

Bottom

Clean off the grease and dust on the bottom often.

Use a solution of warm water and detergent.
