1.
Switch the oven off
before cleaning and unplug at socket if
possible.
2.
Keep the inside of the oven, door seals and door seal areas
clean.
When food splatters or spilled liquids adhere to oven
walls, door seals and door seal areas wipe off with a damp cloth.
Mild detergent may be used if they get very dirty. The use of
harsh detergent or abrasives is not recommended.
3. The back of the oven has a
self-clean catalytic lining.
It is
therefore not necessary to clean this area.
4.
After using CONVECTION, GRILL or COMBINATION cooking
the walls of the oven should be cleaned with a soft cloth
squeezed in soapy water. Particular care should be taken to
keep the window area clean particularly after cooking by
CONVECTION, GRILL or COMBINATION. Stubborn spots inside
the oven can be removed by using a small amount of branded
conventional oven-cleaner sprayed onto a soft damp cloth. Wipe
onto problem spots, leave for recommended time and then wipe
off. Avoid the microwave feed guide area and the door. DO NOT
SPRAY DIRECTLY INSIDE THE OVEN.
5. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to
clean the
oven door glass
since they may scratch the surface,
which may result in shattering of the glass.
6. The
outside oven surface
should be cleaned with a damp
cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts inside the oven,
water should not be allowed to seep into the ventilation
openings.
7. If the
Control Panel
becomes dirty, clean with a soft, dry cloth.
Do not use harsh detergents or abrasives on Control Panel.
When cleaning the Control Panel, leave the oven door open to
prevent the oven from accidentally turning on. After cleaning
touch STOP/CANCEL Pad to clear display window.
8.
If steam accumulates
inside or around the outside of the oven
door, wipe with a soft cloth. This may occur when the microwave
oven is operated under high humidity conditions and in no way
indicates a malfunction of the unit or microwave leakage.
9. It is occasionally necessary to remove the
glass turntable
for
cleaning. Wash the turntable in warm soapy water. Do not place
in the dishwasher.
10. The
roller ring and oven cavity floor
should be cleaned
regularly to avoid excessive noise. Simply wipe the bottom
surface of the oven, particularly the turntable spindle and the
area surrounding this, with mild detergent and hot water then dry
with a clean cloth. The roller ring may be washed in mild soapy
water. Cooking vapours collect during repeated use but in no
way affect the bottom surface or the roller ring wheels.
After removing the roller ring from cavity floor for cleaning, be
sure to replace it in the proper position.
11.
When GRILLING or cooking by COMBINATION or
CONVECTION
some foods may splatter grease onto the oven
walls. If the oven is not cleaned to eliminate this grease, it can
accumulate and cause the oven to ʻSMOKEʼ during use. These
marks will be more difficult to clean later. There is no need to
clean the back of the oven, with the catalytic lining.
12. A
steam cleaner
is not to be used for cleaning.
Care & Cleaning of your Microwave Oven -
IMPORTANT
It is essential for the safe operation of the oven that it is kept clean, and wiped out after each use. Failure to
maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of a surface that could adversely affect the
life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.
