CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE 

 

 

This appliance is for household use only and is not user-serviceable.  

 

Do not open or change any parts by yourself. Please refer to a qualified electrical service 

department or return to the supplier if servicing is necessary. 

 

Turn off the oven and remove the power plug from the wall socket before cleaning. 

 

Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food splatters or spilled liquids adhere to oven walls, wipe 

with a damp cloth. Mild detergent may be used if the oven gets very dirty. Avoid the use of spray 

and other harsh cleaners as they may stain, streak or dull the door surface. 

 

The  outside  surfaces  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. 

 

Wipe the door and window on both sides, the door seals and adjacent parts frequently with a damp 

cloth to remove any spills or spatters. Do not use abrasive cleaner. 

 

Do  not  allow  the  control  panel  to  become  wet.  Clean  with  a  soft,  damp  cloth. When  cleaning  the 

control panel, leave oven door open to prevent oven from accidentally turning on. 

 

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 condition. And it is normal. 

 

It  is  occasionally  necessary  to  remove  the  glass  tray  for  cleaning.  Wash  the  tray  in  warm  sudsy 

water or in a dishwasher. 

 

The roller ring and oven floor should be cleaned regularly to avoid excessive noise. Simply wipe the
