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

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. 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.
3. Do not use spray type cleaners on the oven interior.
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
without regular cleaning, will need to be replaced.

Wash the turntable and turntable support in mild
soapy water. Dry with a soft cloth. Both the turntable
