Care and Cleaning
Countertop Microwave Oven
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.
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.

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 with a damp cloth 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 is 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.
Power Cord
If the cord becomes soiled, unplug and wash with
a damp cloth. For stubborn spots, sudsy water
may be used, but be certain to rinse with a damp
cloth and dry thoroughly before plugging cord into
outlet.
Stainless Steel
(on some models)
Do not use a steel-wood pad; it will scratch the
surface.
To clean the stainless steel surface, use a hot,
damp cloth with a mild detergent suitable for
stainless steel surfaces. Use a clean, hot, damp
cloth to remove soap. Dry with a dry, clean cloth.
Always scrub lightly in the direction of the grain.
