Cleaning and care
Warning
Cleaning the microwave oven is a significant
part of the safe operation of the device and
will prevent health hazards.
Prior to each cleaning: Switch off the
12
microwave oven and disconnect the power
plug.
• The device must be cleaned periodically,
food residue must be removed. If the device
is not cleaned regularly, it can cause wear to
the surface and severely reduce the service
life. Furthermore, it could result in limited
safety and functionality of the device.
• If the door sealing no longer closes
reliably due to accumulated food residue,
microwave radiation may leak and damage
your health.
• Clean the device after use to prevent
mould, vermin, as well as leaking microwave
radiation.
• Do not use steam cleaners to clean the
device! The steam is pressurized and can
condensate on the electrical components
inside the device and cause short-circuits.
• Do not use any abrasive cleaning agents or
metal scrapers to clean the door since they
could scratch the surface and cause the
glass to shatter.
• Clean the casing with a slightly damp cloth.
Please be sure that no water enters the
appliance.
• Use a damp cloth to regularly and carefully
clean the door sealing, cavity and any
adjacent components. Use a damp cloth to
wipe off any food residue or splashes.
• The control panel and its controls must
never get wet. Clean with a soft, damp
cloth. Leave the door open when cleaning
the control panel in order to prevent
accidental operation.

• If steam condensates or forms drops inside
the microwave or on the casing, use a soft
cloth to wipe it off. Condensation can occur
if moist air meets a cold surface. At very
high temperatures, oil and grease can also
evaporate and deposit as a grease film after
cooling off.
• The glass tray can be removed for cleaning.
Clean the tray in warm, soapy water or in
the dishwasher.
• The turntable roller and the cavity bottom
should be cleaned regularly to prevent
excessive noise. Use a mild household
cleaner to wipe the surface; allow it to
dry. If the turntable roller is removed for
cleaning, re-insert it before next use.
Regularly clean the door, window and
sealing with a damp cloth to remove dirt.
• Odours in the cavity can be neutralized
by filling a microwave-suitable cup with
water and lemon juice and boiling it in the
microwave oven for 5 minutes. Wipe the
cavity dry afterwards using a soft cloth.
• In the event that the light bulb inside the
cavity must be replaced, please contact
qualified service personnel.
