CAUTION: DO NOT USE COMMERCIAL OVEN
CLEANERS, STEAM CLEANERS, ABRASIVE,
HARSH CLEANERS, ANY THAT CONTAIN
SODIUM HYDROXIDE OR SCOURING PADS ON
ANY PART OF YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN.
Before cleaning, make sure the oven cavity,
door, oven cabinet and accessories are
completely cool.
CLEAN THE OVEN AT REGULAR INTERVALS AND
REMOVE ANY FOOD DEPOSITS - Keep the oven
clean, or the oven could lead to a deterioration of
the surface. This could adversely affect the life of
the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous
situation.

Oven exterior

The outside of your oven can be cleaned easily with mild soap
and water. Make sure the soap is wiped off with a moist cloth,
and dry the exterior with a soft towel.

Oven controls

Open the door before cleaning to de-activate the oven
controls. Care should be taken when cleaning the oven
control. Using a cloth dampened with water only, gently
wipe the panel until it becomes clean.  Avoid using excessive
amounts of water.  Do not use any sort of chemical or
abrasive cleaner.

Oven Interior

1. For cleaning, wipe any splatters or spills with a soft damp

cloth or sponge after each use while the oven is still
warm. For heavier spills, use a mild soap and wipe
several times with a damp cloth until all residues are
removed. Built-up splashes may overheat and begin to
smoke or catch fire, and cause arcing. Do not remove the
waveguide cover.

2. Make sure that mild soap or water does not penetrate the

small vents in the walls which may cause damage to the
oven. Do not use caustic cleaners (including alkali, acid
thinner, benzin, alcohol or oven cleaner).

3. Do not use spray type cleaners on the oven interior.
4. Heat up your oven regularly by using the grill, refer to

note b “Heating without food” on page GB-7. Remaining
food or fat splashed can cause smoke or bad smell.

Accessories

The accessories should be washed in a mild washing up
liquid solution and dried. They are dishwasher safe.

Door

To remove all trace of dirt, regularly clean both sides of the
door, the door seals and adjacent parts with a soft, damp
cloth. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal
scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch
the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.

NOTE:

Keep the waveguide cover and accessories clean at

all times. If you leave grease or fat in the cavity or
accessories, it may overheat, cause arcing, smoke or even
catch fire when next using the oven.
