Care Of Your Microwave Oven - Panasonic NN-CD87KS Operating Instruction And Cook Book

Care of your Microwave Oven

The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food
deposits removed.
Keep the inside of the oven clean. When
food splatters or spilled liquids adhere to
oven walls, wipe with a damp cloth. Mild
detergent may be used if the oven gets
very dirty. The use of harsh detergent or
abrasives is not recommended.
If steam accumulates inside or around
the outside of the oven door, wipe with
a soft cloth. This may occur when the
microwave oven is operated under
high humidity conditions and in no way
indicates malfunction of the unit.
After using, clean it with a mild
detergent or dishwasher.

Notes
1. When using the Grill, Convection or Combination mode, some foods may inevitably splatter grease
on to the oven walls. If the oven is not cleaned, occasionally it may start to "smoke" during use. These
marks will be more difficult to clean later.
2. After Grill, Convection or Combination cooking, the ceiling and walls of the oven should be cleaned
with a soft cloth squeezed in soapy water. Particular care should be taken to keep the window
area clean particularly after cooking by Grill, Combination. Stubborn spots inside the oven can be
removed by using a small amount of microwave oven cleaner sprayed onto a soft damp cloth. Wipe
onto problem spots, leave for recommended time and then wipe off. This method can not be used to
clean the oven door.
DO NOT SPRAY DIRECTLY INSIDE THE OVEN.
A steam cleaner is not to be used for cleaning.
3. Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surface that could
adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.
4. When it becomes necessary to replace the oven light, please consult the service center specified by
Panasonic.
Turn the oven off and remove the power plug from
the wall socket before cleaning.
The outside oven surfaces should
be cleaned with a damp cloth. To
prevent damage to the operating
parts inside the oven, water
should not be allowed to seep into
the ventilation openings.
The roller ring and oven cavity floor should be cleaned
regularly to avoid excessive noise. Simply wipe the bottom
surface of the oven with mild detergent, water or window
cleaner and dry. The roller ring may be washed in mild sudsy
water or dish washer. Cooking vapors collect during repeated
use but in no way affect the bottom surface or roller ring
wheels. When removing the roller ring from cavity floor for
cleaning, be sure to replace in the proper position.
