CARE OF YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
HOW TO USE YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN SAFELY
1 Disconnect the AC plug from the outlet before
cleaning.
2
Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food
spatters or spilled liquids adhere to oven walls,
wipe with a damp cloth. Mild detergent may be
used if the oven gets very dirty. The use of
harsh
detergent or abrasives is not
recommended.
If steam accumulates on both sides of the oven
door, wipe with a soft cloth. This may occur
when the microwave oven is operated under
high humidity conditions and this is not an
indication of a malfunction in the unit.
It is occasionally necessary to remove the glass
tray for cleaning. Wash the tray in warm, sudsy
water or in a dishwasher.
The roller guide and oven cavity floor should be
cleaned regularly to avoid excessive noise.
Simply wipe the bottom surface of the oven with
mild detergent water and dry. The roller guide
may be washed in mild, sudsy water or in the
dishwasher.
