Care And Cleaning - ElectrIQ eiQCMW60L Instruction Manual

CARE AND CLEANING

With careful care and cleaning your microwave oven will retain its looks and remain in good order. We
will explain here how you should care for and clean your appliance correctly.
Risk of electric shock! Penetrating moisture may cause an electric shock. Do not use any high-
pressure cleaners or steam cleaners.
Risk of burns! Never clean the appliance immediately after switching off. Let the appliance cool
down.
Risk of serious damage to health! Microwave energy may escape if the cooking compartment door
or the door seal is damaged. Never use the appliance if the cooking compartment door or the door
seal is damaged. Contact the after-sales service.
Notes
Slight differences in colour on the front of the appliance are caused by the use of different materials,
such as glass, plastic and metal.
Shadows on the door panel which look like streaks, are caused by reflections made by the oven light.
Unpleasant odours, e.g. after fish has been prepared, can be removed very easily. Add a few drops of
lemon juice to a cup of water. Place a spoon into the container as well, to prevent delayed boiling
(ensure the spoon is kept at least a few centimetres from the edge of the oven to prevent arcing). Heat
the water for 1 to 2 minutes at maximum microwave power.
