CLEANING AND CARE
Door Seals
Always keep the door seals clean to prevent any
damage. If water condenses inside the door seals, wipe
dry with a soft cloth. Polish with another soft cloth. Do
not use a chemical or abrasive cleaner on these
surfaces. Care should be taken not to rub, damage,
pull or move the seals. Before cooking, always check
that door seal is smooth and flat. If not, steam will leak
from the door. Do not use the oven if it has a damaged
door seal. Contact a SERVICE CENTRE APPROVED
BY SHARP.

Wash baking tray and rack after cooking with a mild
soap or detergent solution, rinsing and polishing dry.
Do not use harsh cleaners, sharp metal scrapers or
stiff brushes to prevent damage to the easy clean
surface. All the accessories can be washed in the
dishwasher.
