using your microwave causes tV or radio interference.
•
This is similar to the interference caused by other small appliances, such as hair
dryers. Move your microwave further away from other appliances, like your TV or
radio.
If the oven is set more than 20 minutes at 80, 90 or 100 percent power level, after
the first 20 minutes the power level will automatically adjust itself to 70 percent
power to avoid overcooking.
CARE AND CLEANING
Follow these instructions to clean and care for your oven.
•
Keep the inside of the oven clean. Food particles and spilled liquids can stick to the
oven walls, causing the oven to work less efficiently.
•
Wipe up spills immediately. Use a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not use harsh
detergents or abrasives.
•
To help loosen baked on food particles or liquids, heat two cups of water (add the
juice of one lemon if you desire to keep the oven fresh) in a four-cup measuring glass
at High power for five minutes or until boiling. Let stand in the oven for one or two
minutes.
•
Remove the glass tray from the oven when cleaning the oven or tray.
To prevent the tray from breaking, handle it carefully and do not put it in water
immediately after cooking. Wash the tray carefully in warm sudsy water or in the
dishwasher.
•
Clean the outside surface of the oven with soap and a damp cloth.
Dry with a soft cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts of the oven, don’t let
water seep into the openings.
•
Wash the door window with very mild soap and water. Be sure to use a soft cloth to
avoid scratching.
•
If steam accumulates inside or outside the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. Steam
can accumulate when operating the oven in high humidity and in no way indicates
microwave leakage.
•
Never operate the oven without food in it; this can damage the magnetron tube or
glass tray. You may wish to leave a cup of water in the oven when it is not in use to
prevent damage if the oven is accidentally turned on.
