Cleaning suggestions
For best performance and for safety reasons, keep the
oven clean inside and outside. Take special care to keep
the inner door panel and oven from frame free of food
and grease build-up.
Never use rough scouring powder or pads on the
microwave. Wipe the microwave oven inside and out
with a soft cloth and warm (not hot) mild detergent
solution. Then rinse and wipe completely dry.
Wipe spatters immediately with a wet paper towel,
especially after cooking greasy foods like chicken or
bacon.
Follow these instructions to clean and care for
your microwave oven:
Keep the inside (cavity) of the oven clean. Food
particles and spilled liquids can stick to the oven
walls, causing the oven to work less efficiently.
Wipe up spills immediately. Use a damp, clean
cloth and mild detergent. DO NOT use harsh
detergents or abrasive cleaners.
To help loosen baked-on food particles or liquids,
heat 2 cups of water (add the juice of 1 lemon if
you desire to keep the oven fresh smelling) in a 4
cup measuring glass at High power for 5 minutes
or until boiling. Let stand in oven cavity for 1 or 2
minutes.
Remove the glass turntable tray from the oven
when cleaning the oven cavity or tray. To prevent
the glass turntable from breaking, handle with
care and do not put it in water immediately
after cooking. Wash the turntable tray with mild
detergent.
Clean the outside surface of the microwave with
mild detergent and a clean damp cloth. Dry with
a clean soft cloth. To prevent damage to the
operating parts of the oven,do not let water seep
into any vents or openings.
Wash the oven door window with very mild soap
and water. Be sure to use a soft clean cloth to
avoid scratching.
If steam accumulates inside or outside the oven
door, wipe with a soft cloth. Steam can accumulate
when operating the oven in high humidity and in
no way indicates microwave leakage.
Never operate the oven without food in the oven
cavity; this can damage the magnetron tube or
glass tray.
