MAINTENANCE & CLEANING
Use a mild detergent, water and a soft cloth
to clean the interior surfaces, front and rear of
the door and the door opening.
Do not allow grease or food particles to build
up around the door.
For stubborn stains, boil a cup of water in the
oven for 2 or 3 minutes. Steam will soften the
marks.
Do not use steam cleaning appliances when
cleaning your microwave oven.
Adding some lemon juice to a cup of water,
placing this on the turntable and boiling for
a few minutes can eliminate odors inside
the oven.
Abrasive cleansers, steel-wool pads, gritty
wash cloths, etc. can damage the control panel,
and the interior and exterior oven surfaces.
Use a sponge with a mild detergent or a paper
towel with spray glass cleaner. Apply spray glass
cleaner to a paper towel.
Do not spray directly on the oven.

CAREFUL CLEANING:

The Crisp-plate should be cleaned in mild,
detergent water. Heavily soiled areas can be
cleaned with a scouring sponge and a mild
cleanser.
Always let the crisp-plate cool off
before cleaning.
Do not immerse or rinse with water while the
crisp-plate is hot. Quick cooling may damage it.
Do not use steel-wool pads.
This will scratch the surface.
