MAINTENANCE

CARING FOR YOUR
MICROWAVE OVEN

To make sure your microwave oven looks good and
works well for a long time, you should maintain it
properly. For proper care, please follow these
instructions carefully.

For interior surfaces: Wash

often with warm, sudsy water
and a sponge or soft cloth. Use
only mild, nonabrasive soaps
or a mild detergent. 

Be sure to

keep the areas clean where
the door and oven frame
touch when closed. 

Wipe well

with clean cloth. Over time,
stains can occur on the
surfaces as the result of food particles spattering during
cooking. This is normal.

For stubborn soil, boil a cup of
water in the oven for 2 to 3
minutes. Steam will soften the
soil. To get rid of odors inside
the oven, boil a cup of water
with some lemon juice or
vinegar in it.

For exterior surfaces and
control panel: 

Use a soft cloth

with spray glass cleaner. Apply
the spray glass cleaner to the
soft cloth; do not spray directly
on the oven.

NOTE: Abrasive cleansers,
steel wool pads, gritty wash
cloths, some paper towels,
etc.,

can damage the control panel and the interior and

exterior oven surfaces.

To clean Grass turntable
and rotating ring, 

wash in

mild, sudsy water; for
heavily soiled areas use a
mild cleanser and scouring
sponge. The glass
turntable and rotating ring
are dishwasher safe.
