The oven must always be clean. Residue of food from
spill-overs or spatters will absorb microwave energy
causing it to burn on. This could reduce the efficiency of
the oven and may cause unpleasant odours. Do not
attempt to tamper with or make any adjustments or
repairs to any part of the oven. Repairs should only be
made by an authorised service engineer.

Be sure the oven is off or the unit is unplugged
before cleaning.

Cleaning the accessories 
(turnable, support and rack)

Clean them with mild detergent after removing them
from the cavity. The turntable support should be care-
fully handled.

The inside of the oven and turntable get very
hot, so do not touch them immediately after use.

Cleaning the interior

Soilage 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 soilage. 

NEVER USE ABRASIVE CLEA-

NERS, COMMERCIAL OVEN CLEANERS OR STEEL
WOOL PADS ON ANY PART OF THE MICROWAVE
OVEN.

To loosen difficult soilage, boil a cup of water in the
microwave oven for 2 or 3 minutes. 

NEVER USE A

KNIFE OR ANY UTENSIL TO REMOVE SOILAGE 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 acci-
dentally. 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. Pay special attention to the door seal
and front of the cavity which must be kept clean at all
times. If these surfaces are damaged because of exces-
sive soiling, call in a specialised technician before using
your microwave oven.
Spray-on window cleaners or all purpose spray-on kit-
chen 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 wor-
king parts, do not allow water to seep into ventilation
openings.
