Service
WHEN YOUR OVEN REQUIRES A
SERVICE call your local Panasonic
engineer (Customer Care Centre on

engineer). It is hazardous for anyone other than a competent
person to carry out any service or repair operation which involves
the removal of a cover which gives protection against exposure to
microwave energy.

other part of the oven. Do not remove outer panel from oven.
The door seals and door seal areas should always be kept clean
– use a damp cloth.
N.B.
The appliance should be inspected for damage to the door
seals and door seal areas. If these areas are damaged the
appliance should not be operated until it has been repaired by a
service technician trained by the manufacturer.

should not be allowed to seep into the ventilation openings.

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

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.

glass turntable
for
cleaning. Wash the tray in warm soapy water. Do not place in the
dishwasher.

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.
