CLEANING AND CARE
• Turn off the oven and unplug the power cord from the mains supply when cleaning.
• Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food splatters or spilled liquids adhere to oven sides, top, bottom or
turntable, wipe with a damp cloth. Mild detergents may be used if the oven gets very dirty. Avoid using spray or
other harsh cleaners. They may stain, streak or dull the door surface.
• The outside of the oven should be cleaned with a damp cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts inside the
oven, water should not be allowed to seep into the ventilation openings.
• Wipe the door and window on both sides, the door seals and adjacent parts frequently with a damp cloth to remove
any spills or spatters.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners.
• Do not steam cleaners.
• Do not allow the control panel to become wet. Clean with a soft, damp cloth. When cleaning the control panel, leave
oven door open to prevent oven from accidentally turning on.
• If steam accumulates inside or around the outside of the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. This may occur when the
microwave oven is operated under high humidity condition. This is not a fault.
• The turntable should be cleaned regularly to avoid contamination and potential arcing/damage. Simply wipe the
bottom surface of the oven with mild detergent.
• Remove odors from your oven by combining a cup of water with the juice and skin of one lemon in a microwaveable
bowl. Microwave for 5 minutes. Wipe thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth.
• If the light bulb fails, please contact customer service for advice.
• The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food deposits should be removed. Failure to maintain the oven in
a clean condition could lead to deterioration of surface that could adversely aff ect the life of the unit and could
possibly result in a hazardous situation.
• Please do not dispose of this appliance into the domestic rubbish bin; refer to your countries advice on disposal of
this type of product.

SUITABLE OVENWARE
1.
The ideal material for a microwave utensil is transparent to microwave, it allows energy to pass through the
container and heat the food.
2.
Microwave cannot penetrate metal, so metal utensils or dishes with metallic trim should not be used.
3.
Do not use recycled paper products when microwave cooking, as they may contain small metal fragments which
may cause sparks and/or fi res.
4.
Round /oval dishes rather than square/oblong ones are recommend, as food in corners tends to overcook.
5.
Narrow strips of aluminum foil may be used to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. But be careful don’t use too
much and keep a distance of 2.54 cm between foil and cavity
