cleaned often; generally at least once every month.

CAUTION
To avoid risk of personal injury or property damage,
do not operate oven vent without filters properly in
place.
NOTICE:
Use both hands to remove the filter to prevent
it from dropping down.
1.
To remove the ventilation filters, release the catch by
pulling it down with your finger. The filter will drop
down at the front. Then pull filter towards you to
remove it. The filter will drop out. Repeat for the 2nd
filter.
2.
Soak the ventilation filters in hot water using a mild
detergent. Rinse well and shake to dry. You can also
wash the filters in a dishwasher.
3.
To reinstall the ventilation filter, slide the two pins at
the rear side of the filter into the slots at the rear of the
filter opening, then push up filter at the front until the
catch locks in place with a click. Reinstall the 2nd filter
using the same procedure.
Part Recommendations
Oven cavity Keep inside (cavity) of the oven clean. Food particles and spilled liquids can stick to the
oven walls, causing the oven to work less efficiently.
Wipe up spills immediately. Use a damp, clean cloth and mild soap.
DO NOT
use harsh
detergents or abrasive cleaners.
To help loosen baked–on food particles or liquids, heat 2 cups of water (add the juice of
1 lemon if you desire to keep the oven fresh smelling) in a 4 cup microwave-safe dish at
High power for 5 minutes or until boiling. Let stand in oven cavity for 1 or 2 minutes.
Wire rack Wash with soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry, or gently rub with cleansing powder or
soap-filled pads as directed.
Glass turntable tray Remove glass turntable tray from the oven when cleaning the oven cavity and tray.
NOTICE:
To prevent the glass turntable from breaking, handle with care and do not put it in
water immediately after cooking.
Wash the glass turntable tray in warm soapy water or in the dishwasher.
Turntable roller rest Clean with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
Door glass Wash with soap and water or glass cleaner. Use Fantastik
®
or Formula 409
®
on a clean
sponge or paper towel and wipe clean. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, like powder cleaning
agents, steel wool pads and oven cleaners.
If steam accumulates inside or outside the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. Steam can
accumulate when operating the oven in high humidity and in no way indicates microwave
leakage.

to a clean sponge or paper
towel and wipe clean. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, like powder cleaning agents, steel wool
pads and oven cleaners.
