CARING FOR YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
1. Turn the oven off before cleaning.
2. Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food spatters or spilled liquids adhere to oven
walls, wipe with a damp cloth. Mild detergent may be used if the oven gets very dirty.
The use of harsh detergent or abrasives is not recommended.
3. The outside oven surface should be cleaned with soap and water, rinsed and dried with
a soft cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts inside the oven, water should not
be allowed to seep into the ventilation openings.
4. If the Control Panel becomes wet, clean with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use harsh
detergents or abrasives on the Control Panel.
5. 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
conditions and in no way indicates malfunction of the unit.
6. For easier cleaning of the cavity walls, place half a lemon in a bowl, add 300ml (1/2 pint)
water and heat on 100% microwave power for 1 minutes. Wipe the oven clean using a
soft, dry cloth.
7. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door
glass since they can scratch the surface, which may cause the glass to shatter.
