Care & cleaning
CAUTION: DO NOT USE COMMERCIAL OVEN
CLEANERS, STEAM CLEANERS, ABRASIVE, HARSH
CLEANERS, ANY THAT CONTAIN SODIUM HYDROXIDE
OR SCOURING PADS ON ANY PART OF YOUR
MICROWAVE OVEN.
CLEAN THE OVEN AT REGULAR INTERVALS AND
REMOVE ANY FOOD DEPOSITS. Failure to maintain the
oven in a clean condition could lead to a deterioration
of the surface that could adversely affect the life of the
appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.
Oven exterior
The outside of your oven can be cleaned easily with mild
soap and water. Make sure the soap is wiped off with a
moist cloth, and dry the exterior with a soft towel.
Control panel
Open the door before cleaning to de-activate the control
panel. Care should be taken when cleaning the control
panel. Using a cloth dampened with water only, gently
wipe the panel until it becomes clean. Avoid using
excessive amounts of water. Do not use any sort of
chemical or abrasive cleaner.

NOTE: If you cook the food over the standard time with only the same cooking mode, the power of the oven will

Oven Interior
1. For cleaning, wipe any splatters or spills with a soft damp
cloth or sponge after each use while the oven is still
warm. For heavier spills, use a mild soap and wipe several
times with a damp cloth until all residues are removed.
Do not remove the waveguide cover.
2. Make sure that mild soap or water does not penetrate the
small vents in the walls which may cause damage to the oven.
3. Do not use spray type cleaners on the oven interior.
4. Heat up your oven regularly by using the grill, refer to
note 2 on page 17. Remaining food or fat splashed can
cause smoke or a bad smell.

Remove the turntable and turntable support from the
oven. Wash the turntable and turntable support in mild
soapy water. Dry with a soft cloth. Both the turntable and
the turntable support are dishwasher safe.
Door
To remove all trace of dirt, regularly clean both sides of the door,
the door seals and sealing surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Do
not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean
the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which
may result in shattering of the glass.

solution and dried. The racks are dishwasher safe.
