Oven Cleaning and Maintenance
Cleaning is the only maintenance normally
required.
Warning! Your microwave oven should be
cleaned regularly, with all food remains being
removed. If the microwave is not kept clean its
surfaces may deteriorate,
reducing the
oven’s working life and possibly resulting
in a dangerous situation
.
Warning! Cleaning should be done with the
oven power switched off. Take the plug out
of the socket or switch off the oven’s
power circuit.
Do not use aggressive or abrasive
cleaning products, scourers that scratch
surfaces or sharp objects, since stains
may appear.
Do not use high pressure or stream jet
cleaning appliances.
Front surface
Normally you just need to clean the oven with
a damp cloth. If it is very dirty, add a few
drops of dishwashing liquid to the cleaning
water. Afterwards, wipe the oven with a dry
cloth.
In an oven with an aluminium front, use a
glass cleaning product and a soft cloth that
does not release any fibres or threads. Wipe
from side to side without exerting any
pressure on the surface.
Immediately remove lime, fat, starch or egg
white stains. Corrosion can occur under these
stains.
Do not let any water get inside the oven.
Oven interior
After each time the oven is used, clean the
inside walls with a damp cloth since this is the
easiest way to remove splashes or spots of
food that may have stuck to the inside.
To remove dirt that is harder to shift, use a
non-aggressive cleaning product.
Do not use
oven sprays or other aggressive or
abrasive cleaning products.
Always keep the door and the oven front
very clean to ensure that the door opens
and closes properly.
Make sure water does not enter the
microwave ventilation holes.
Regularly take out the turntable plate and the
respective support and clean the cavity base,
especially after any liquid spillage.
Do not switch on the oven without the
turntable and the respective support being
in place.
If the oven cavity is very dirty, put a glass of
water on the turntable and switch on the
microwave oven for 2 or 3 minutes at
maximum power. The steam released will
soften the dirt which can then be cleaned
easily using a soft cloth.
Unpleasant odours (e.g. after cooking fish)
can be eliminated easily. Put a few drops of
lemon juice in a cup with water. Put a spoonful
of coffee in the cup to avoid the water boiling
over. Heat the water for 2 to 3 minutes at
maximum microwave power.
