CARE AND CLEANING
Helpful Hints
An occasional thorough wiping with a solution of baking soda
and water keeps the inside fresh.
Be certain the oven control is turned off before cleaning
any part of this oven.
How to Clean the Inside
Walls, Floor, Inside Window, Metal and Plastic Parts
on the Door
Some spatters can be removed with a paper towel;
others may require a damp cloth. Remove greasy
spatters with a sudsy cloth, then rinse with a damp cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or sharp utensils on oven
walls.
To clean the surface of the door and the surface of the
oven that come together upon closing, use only mild,
nonabrasive soaps or detergents using a sponge or soft
cloth. Rinse with a damp cloth and dry.
Never use a commercial
oven cleaner on any part of
your microwave.
Removable Turntable and Turntable Support
To prevent breakage, do not
place the turntable into water
just after cooking. Wash it
carefully in warm, sudsy water
or in the dishwasher. The
turntable and support can be
broken if dropped. Remember, do not operate the oven
in the microwave mode without the turntable and support
seated and in place.
How to Clean the Outside
Do not use cleaners containing ammonia or alcohol on
the microwave oven. Ammonia or alcohol can damage
the appearance of the microwave.
Case
Clean the outside of the microwave with a sudsy cloth.
Rinse with a damp cloth and then dry. Wipe the window
clean with a damp cloth.
Control Panel and Door
Wipe with a damp cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not use
cleaning sprays, large amounts of soap and water,
abrasives or sharp objects on the panel—they can
damage it. Some paper towels can also scratch the
control panel.
Door Surface
It is important to keep the area clean where the door
seals against the microwave. Use only mild, non-
abrasive detergents applied with a clean sponge or soft
cloth. Rinse well.
Power Cord
If the cord becomes soiled, unplug and wash with a
damp cloth. For stubborn spots, sudsy water may be
used, but be certain to rinse with a damp cloth and dry
thoroughly before plugging cord into outlet.
Stainless Steel (on some models)
Do not use a steel-wood pad; it will scratch the surface.
To clean the stainless steel surface, use a hot, damp
cloth with a mild detergent suitable
for stainless steel surfaces. Use a clean, hot, damp cloth
to remove soap. Dry with a dry, clean cloth. Always
scrub lightly in the direction of the grain.
