CLEANING AND CARE

EXTERIOR

The outside surface is precoated steel and plastic. Clean 
the outside with mild soap and water; rinse and dry with 
a soft cloth. Do not use any type of household or abrasive 
cleaner.

DOOR

Wipe the window on both sides with a soft cloth to remove 
any spills or spatters. Metal parts will be easier to maintain 
if wiped frequently with a soft cloth. Avoid the use of spray 
and other harsh cleaners as they may stain, streak or dull 
the door surface. 

  

 

Your microwave oven(some models) may have a Stainless
Steel finish or coating.  Clean the stainless with warm 

soapy water using a clean sponge or cloth. Rinse with clean 
water and dry with a soft clean cloth. DO NOT use ANY 
store bought cleaners like Stainless Steel cleaners or any 
other types of cleaners containing any abrasive, chlorides, 
chlorines or ammonia. It is recommended to use mild dish 
soap and water or a 50/50 solution of water and vinegar.

TOUCH CONTROL PANEL

Care should be taken in cleaning the touch control panel. 
If the control panel becomes soiled, open the microwave 
oven door before cleaning. Wipe the panel with a cloth 
dampened slightly with water only. Dry with a soft cloth. 
Do not scrub or use any sort of chemical cleaners. Close

 to assure good microwave oven performance. Carefully

 wipe with a damp cloth any food spatters from the surface

 of the cover immediately after they occur. Built-up splashes

 may

 

overheat and cause smoke or possibly catch fire.

 DO NOT REMOVE THE WAVEGUIDE COVER. 

ODOR REMOVAL

Occasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the microwave 
oven. To remove, combine 1 cup water, grated peel and 
juice of 1 lemon in a 2-cup glass measuring cup.

 Boil for several minutes using 100% power.

a soft cloth.
