Exterior

Exterior

The outside surface is painted. Clean the outside with
mild soap and water; rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Do
not use any type of household or abrasive cleaner.

Door

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

Touch Control Panel

Care should be taken in cleaning the touch control panel.
If the control panel becomes soiled, open the oven
door before cleaning. Wipe the panel with a cloth
dampened slightly with water only. Dry with a soft
cloth. Do not scrub or use any sort of chemical
cleaners. Close door and touch STOP/CLEAR.

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 cloth and warm water. DO
NOT USE ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANERS OR
SCOURING PADS. For heavier soil, use baking soda
or a mild soap; rinse thoroughly with hot water. NEVER
SPRAY OVEN CLEANERS DIRECTLY ONTO ANY
PART OF THE OVEN.

Waveguide Cover

The waveguide cover is made from mica so requires
special care. Keep the waveguide cover clean to as-
sure good oven performance. Carefully wipe with a
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 remove, 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 scouring
sponge as described above. 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.

         DEMO

Disconnect the power cord before cleaning. If possible, leave the door open to inactivate the oven during cleaning.
