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.

CAUTION: The inside of the oven and turntable

get very hot, so do not touch them immediately

after use.

Care and cleaning (grill)

The element may be stained with spattered fat or

oil while the oven is in use. Wait until the cavity

cools down and wipe off the spattered oil before

next using of the oven. Stains grill may cause

unpleasant odours and smoke.

Cleaning the accessories

(turntable, support and rack)

Clean them with mild detergent after removing

them for the cavity. Turntable support should be

carefully handled.

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.
