Precautions for LTse
of Metal
Use me~al only as directed in the
cookbook. Metal trays no more
than 3/4" deep may be used for TV
dinners, and the metal temperature
probe is designed for microwave
oven use. Always keep metal at least
one inch away from sides of oven.
Temperature Probe
The probe is sturdy, but handle it
carefully. Do not twist or drop it.
Clean it as soon as possible after
use. The entire probe can be
washed in warm, soapy water. You
can rub metal parts with a plastic
scouring pad if necessary. Rinse
with clean water and dry with a soft
cloth or paper towel. You can also
wash the probe in the top rack of a
dishwasher.
Cleaning—Outside
Clean the outside of your
microwave oven with soap and
damp cloth, then rinse with a damp
clo[h and dry. Wipe the window
clean with a damp cloth. Chrome is
best wiped with a damp cloth and
then with a dry towel.
Cleaning—Inside
Keep
your microwave oven clean
and sweet-smelling.
Opening the
oven door a few minutes after
cooking helps air out the interior.
An occasional thorough wiping
with a solution of baking soda and
water keeps the interior fresh.
Spills and spatters are easy
to remove from wails and floor.
That's because there's little heat
except in the food, or sometimes in
the utensil. Some spatters wipe up
with a paper towel, some may
require a damp cloth. Remove
greasy spatters with a sudsy cloth,
then rinse and dry.
NEVER USE A COMNIERCIAL
OVEN CLEANER ON ANY Pm
OF YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN.
Wipe up spatters on the window
on the inside of the door daily.
Wash window, when it's soiled,
with a minimum of sudsy, warm
water. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
Wipe metal and plastic parts on
the inside of the door frequently.
Use a damp cloth to remove all
soil. DO NOT USE ABRASIVES,
such as cleaning powders or steel
and plastic pads. They may mar
the surface.
Glass Cooking Tray. Occasionally
it is necessary to remove the cooking
tray. To prevent breakage, do not place
tray into water just after cooking.
Wash it carefully in warm, sudsy
water or in the dishwasher. The tray
can be broken if dropped.
Remember, do not operate the oven
without the cooking tray in place.
Door Surface. When cleaning
surfaces of door and oven that
come together on closing the door,
use only mild, nonabrasive soaps
or detergents applied with a sponge
or soil cloth.
