Care and Cleaning

Helpful Hints
An occasional thorough wiping with a solution of baking
soda and water keeps the inside fresh.
Be sure the power is off before cleaning any part of this
oven.
How to Clean the Inside
Walls, Floor, Inside Window, Metal and Plastic Parts
on the Door
Some spatters can be removed with a paper towel;
spatters with a sudsy cloth, then rinse with a damp cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or sharp utensils on oven
walls.
Never use a commercial oven
cleaner on any part of your
microwave.
How to Clean the Outside
We recommend against using cleaners with ammonia
or alcohol, as they can damage the appearance of
the microwave oven. If you choose to use a common
household cleaner, first apply the cleaner directly to a
clean cloth, then wipe the soiled area.
Case
Clean the outside of the microwave with a sudsy cloth.
Rinse and then dry. Wipe the window clean with a damp
cloth.
Control Panel
Wipe with a damp cloth.
Dry thoroughly. Do not
use cleaning sprays, large
amounts of soap and water,
abrasives or sharp objects on
the panel—they can damage
it. Some paper towels can
also scratch the control panel.
Door Panel
Before cleaning the front door panel, make sure you
know what type of panel you have. Refer to the eighth
digit of the model number. "S" is stainless steel, "L" is
CleanSteel and "B", "W" or "C" are plastic colors.
