Cleaning Your Microwave
Cleaning your microwave each time you use it will help to prevent a build up of stubborn
marks that can be difficult to clean.
Unplug your microwave from the mains and wait for it to completely cool down before
cleaning.
On the right hand side wall of the cavity is the wave guide cover. Microwaves are passed
through this to enable your food to cook. It is important that this wave guide cover is kept
clean at all times. Wipe it with mild detergent and water and leave to dry.
The microwave walls have a special
enamel coating which makes cleaning
very easy. Use a soft damp cloth to wipe
off any splashes or a paper towel to
mop up any spills. Wipe off grease with
a damp cloth and a little detergent. Dry
thoroughly. If grease is left to accumulate,
it can smoke and even catch fire.

Make sure you keep the outlet grids clean.
Keep the front of the microwave clean
so that the door can close properly.
Be careful not to spill water into the vents.
Do not remove the wave guide cover:
It is important to keep the cover clean
in the same manner as the inside of the
microwave. If grease is left to accumulate,
it can smoke and even catch fire.
Keep the inside of the door clean with a
damp cloth. Use warm soapy water for
stubborn marks and dry thoroughly. The
inside of the door has a special coating
and must not be cleaned with abrasive
pads or cleaning powders.
Clean behind the door ledge.
Treat the glass turntable plate as you
would any glass plate. After you have
used it for more than 15 minutes, allow it
to cool down before you use it again. Do
not wash the glass turntable plate in very
hot water, doing so could crack it. Wash
the turntable support in warm water. Do
not use very hot water which could warp
it. Make sure the glass turntable plate and
turntable support are dry before you put
them back in the microwave.
Use warm soapy water to clean the
outside of the microwave. Do not use
abrasive buttons or powders that could
scratch the surface.
Unplug the microwave before cleaning
the power lead and the microwave. Wipe
with a damp cloth and leave to dry before
plugging it back in.
Wash the racks in warm water. Do not use
very hot water which could warp them.
