Cleaning
Unplug your oven
before you clean it.
The oven walls have a special
enamel coating which makes
cleaning very easy. Use a soft
damp cloth to wipe off any
splashes or a paper towel to mop
up any spills. Wipe off grease with
a damp cloth and a little detergent.
Dry thoroughly. As with any oven,
if grease is left to accumulate, it
can smoke and even catch fire.
Clean behind
the door ledge.
Keep the inside of the door clean with a damp cloth. Use
warm soapy water for stubborn marks and dry
thoroughly.
The inside of the door has a special coating and must not
be cleaned with abrasive pads or cleaning powders
Check that the door
catches are clean.
Keep the front of the
oven clean so that the
door can close
properly.
Wash racks in warm water.
Don't use very hot water
on the racks which could
make them warp.
Use warm soapy water to
clean the outside of the
oven. Don't use abrasive
pads or powders that
could scratch the surface.
Unplug the oven before
cleaning the power lead.
Wipe with a damp cloth
and leave to dry before
plugging it back in.
Be careful not to spill
water into the vents.
Treat the turntable as
you would any glass
plate. After you've used
it for more than 15
minutes, allow it to cool
down before you use it
again. Don't wash the
turntable in very hot
water that could crack it.
Make sure the turntable
is dry before you put it
back in the oven.
Cleaning your microwave
Cleaning your oven each time you use it will help to prevent stubborn marks that
can be difficult to clean.
Do not remove any fixed parts from the inside
of your microwave oven during cleaning or at
any other time.
Make sure you
keep the outlet
grids clean.
Wash the rotating ring
and defrost rack in
warm water. Don't use
very hot water which
could make it warp.
Warning
Ensure you unplug your
microwave from the mains and
wait for the oven to cool down
completely before cleaning.
