Exterior

Interior

Disconnect the power cord before cleaning or leave the door
open to inactivate the oven during cleaning.

Exterior

The outside surface is painted. Clean the outside with mild soap and
water. Then wipe with a clean dampened cloth and polish dry with a
soft cloth. Do not use any type of household or abrasive cleaner.

Door

Wipe the window on both sides with a soft damp cloth to remove
any spills or spatters. Metal parts will be easier to maintain if wiped
frequently with a soft damp cloth. Avoid the use of spray and other
harsh cleaners as they may stain, streak or dull the door surface.

Touch Control Panel

Wipe the panel with a soft cloth dampened slightly with water
only. Dry with a soft cloth. Do not scrub or use any sort of chemi-
cal cleaners. Close door and touch 

STOP/CLEAR

 pad.

Interior

Cleaning is easy because little heat is generated to the interior
surfaces; therefore, there is no baking and setting of spills or
spattering. To clean the interior surfaces, wipe with a soft damp
cloth. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANERS OR
SCOURING PADS. For heavier soil, use baking soda or a mild
soap; wipe clean with a soft damp cloth. NEVER SPRAY OVEN
CLEANERS DIRECTLY ONTO ANY PART OF THE OVEN.

Waveguide Cover

The waveguide cover is made from mica and requires special care. Keep
the waveguide cover clean to assure good oven performance. Carefully
wipe with a soft damp cloth any food spatters from the surface of the
cover immediately after they occur. Built-up splashes may overheat and
cause smoke or possibly catch fire. Do not remove the waveguide cover.

Odor Removal

Occasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the oven. To re-
move, combine 1 cup water, grated peel and juice of 1 lemon
and several whole cloves in a 2-cup glass measuring cup. Boil
for several minutes using 100% power. Allow to set in oven until
cool. Wipe interior with a soft cloth.

Turntable / Turntable Support

The turntable and turntable support can be removed for easy cleaning.
Wash them in mild, sudsy water; for stubborn stains use a mild cleanser
and a non-abrasive scouring sponge. They are also dishwasher-proof.
Use upper rack of dishwasher. The turntable motor shaft is not sealed,
so excess water or spills should be wiped up immediately.
