An occasional thorough wiping with
a solution of baking soda and water
keeps the inside fresh.
Unplug the cord before cleaning any part
of this oven.
Helpful Hints
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
without the turntable and support
in place.
How to Clean the Inside
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 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’s 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.
