8. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Before cleaning, turn off the microwave oven and remove the power cable from the
wall socket.
•
Keep the microwave oven in a clean condition. Remove food and beverage residue
adjacent to oven walls using a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, you can use a mild
detergent. Do not use aerosol cleaners or other strong cleaning agents, as they can
leave stains, streaks or dulling on the door surface.
•
Clean the external surfaces with a damp cloth. In order to avoid damage to
components inside the oven, protect vents against water.
•
Often use a damp cloth to wipe the door, windows, seals and adjacent elements in
order to remove any food and beverage residue. Do not use abrasive detergents.
•
Protect the control panel against water and clean it with a damp cloth. When
cleaning the control panel, leave the door open in order to prevent accidental starting
of the oven.
•
If steam gathers inside or outside the oven, wipe it with a soft cloth. Condensation
can occur when using the oven in high humidity areas. This is completely normal.
•
From time to time, remove the glass turntable plate and clean it. Wash the plate in
warm water with dishwashing liquid or in a dishwasher.
•
Regularly clean the ring and the bottom of the oven in order to avoid excessive noise
during operation. Wash the undersurface of the oven with a mild detergent. The ring
can be cleaned in hot soapy water or in a dishwasher. After cleaning, place the ring
in its original position.
•
To get rid of odors inside the oven, place a deep heat-resistant bowl inside, filled
with water with lemon peel, and heat it for five minutes. Then thoroughly wipe the
inside of the oven dry with a soft cloth.
•
Regularly clean the oven and remove any food residue. Excessive dirt in the oven
can cause damage to its surface, adversely affect the operation of the appliance, or
even pose a threat to the user.
•
When the microwave oven with grill function is first used, it may produce slight
smoke and smell. This is a normal phenomenon because the oven is made a steel
plate coated with lubricating oil, and the new oven will produce fumes and odor
generated by burning the lubricating oil. This phenomenon will disappear after a
period of using.
9. REPAIRS
If the microwave oven does not work:
1.
Make sure that it is properly connected to electrical network. If not, remove the plug
from the socket, wait ten seconds, and then plug it in again.
2.
Make sure that the fuse is not blown or that the circuit breaker has not been activated.
If not, check the socket by plugging in another device.
3.
Make sure that the control panel is programmed correctly and the clock has been set.
