Oven Cleaning and Maintenance
Cleaning is the only maintenance normally
required.
Warning! Your microwave oven should be
cleaned regularly, with all food remains
being removed. If the microwave is not
kept clean its surfaces may deteriorate,
reducing the oven’s working life and
possibly resulting in a dangerous
situation
.
Warning! Cleaning should be done with
the oven power switched off. Take the
plug out of the socket or switch off the
oven’s power circuit.
Do not use aggressive or abrasive
cleaning products, scourers that
scratch surfaces or sharp objects,
since stains may appear.
Do not use high pressure or stream jet
cleaning appliances.
Front surface
Normally you just need to clean the oven
with a damp cloth. If it is very dirty, add a
few drops of dishwashing liquid to the
cleaning water. Afterwards, wipe the oven
with a dry cloth.
In an oven with an aluminium front, use
a glass cleaning product and a soft cloth
that does not release any fibres or
threads. Wipe from side to side without
exerting any pressure on the surface.
Immediately remove lime, fat, starch or
egg white stains. Corrosion can occur
under these stains.
Do not let any water get inside the oven.
Oven interior
After each time the oven is used, clean the
inside walls with a damp cloth since this is
the easiest way to remove splashes or
spots of food that may have stuck to the
inside.
To remove dirt that is harder to shift, use a
non-aggressive cleaning product.
Do not
use oven sprays or other aggressive or
abrasive cleaning products.
Always keep the door and the oven
front very clean to ensure that the door
opens and closes properly.
Make sure water does not enter the
microwave ventilation holes.
Regularly take out the turntable plate and
the respective support and clean the
cavity base, especially after any liquid
spillage.
Do not switch on the oven without the
turntable and the respective support
being in place.
If the oven cavity is very dirty, put a glass
of water on the turntable and switch on the
microwave oven for 2 or 3 minutes at
maximum power. The steam released will
soften the dirt which can then be cleaned
easily using a soft cloth.
Unpleasant odours (e.g. after cooking fish)
can be eliminated easily. Put a few drops
of lemon juice in a cup with water. Put a
spoonful of coffee in the cup to avoid the
water boiling over. Heat the water for 2 to
3 minutes at maximum microwave power.
