ENGLISH
C AUTION: 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 RE-
MOVE 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 situa-
tion.
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.
Control panel
Open the door before cleaning to de-activate the con-
trol panel. Care should be taken in cleaning the con-
trol panel. 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 re-
move the waveguide cover.
CARE AND CLEANING
Cleaning tip - For easier cleaning of your oven:
Place half a lemon in a bowl, add 300ml (1/2 pint) water and heat on 100% for 10 -12 minutes.
Wipe the oven clean using a soft, dry cloth.
2. Make sure that mild soap or water does not pen-
etrate the small vents in the walls which may cause
damage to the oven.
3. Do not use spray type cleaners on the oven interior.
4. Heat up your oven regularly by using the grill and
heat the oven without food for 20 minutes on grill
(page EN-20). Remaining food or fat splashed can
cause smoke or bad smell.
Keep the waveguide cover clean at all times.
The waveguide cover is constructed from a fragile
material and should be cleaned with care (follow the
cleaning instructions above).
NOTE: Excessive soaking may cause disintegration of
the waveguide cover.
The waveguide cover is a consumable part and with-
out regular cleaning, will need to be replaced.
Accessories
The accessories like turntable, turntable support and
rack 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 abrasive cleaner.
NOTE: A steam cleaner should not be used.
EN-21
When cooking, condensation can build up inside
oven cavity, cavity face and door. The amount of
condensation will depend upon the temperature
of the oven surfaces and the moisture content of
the food being microwaved. Ensure that when you
have finished cooking that any moisture which
collects on these surfaces is wiped away with a soft,
moisture absorbent cloth.
