Care of Your Microwave Oven

1. Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply

before cleaning.

2. Keep the inside of the oven clean. If pieces of food

or spilled liquids stick to the oven walls, or between
door seal and door surface, they will absorb
microwaves and may cause arcing or sparks. Wipe
up all spills with a damp cloth. Kitchen detergent or
Food Sanitizer Solution may be used if the oven
gets very dirty. Do not use harsh detergents or
abrasives.

3. The outside surface of this microwave oven should

be cleaned with soap and water, then dried with a
soft cloth. Make sure that water does not get into
the back ventilation or control panel, since this can
damage the unit.

4. The window of the door should be washed with

very mild soap and water. Be sure to use a soft
cloth. Never use window cleaner. The front door can
be scratched by harsh soap or detergents.

CLEANING OF THE
SPLATTER SHIELD

1. Locate the snap-in stoppers at the front corners of

the splatter shield with both hands and pull them in
and down. Take the splatter shield out of the oven
cavity.

CAUTION

Never operate the oven without the splatter shield
securely in place. To do so will permanently
damage the antenna in the roof of the oven.

CLEANING AIR FILTER

Clean the Air Filter regularly according to the following
instructions. The oven may overheat if the Air Filter
becomes clogged with dust and grease.
1. Remove Air Filter from the front bottom skirt by

returning the right screw to the left. Then slide the
filter to the right and lift it off the post at the left.

2. Rinse the splatter shield in soapy water or Food

Sanitizer Solution. Dry.

3. Be sure to replace the shield before using the oven.

Locate the pegs at the rear of the cavity first. Lift
the front edge into place and the side stoppers
should click into place.

post

2. Wash this filter in warm soapy water.
3. Be sure to replace Air Filter before using the oven.
