Care Of Your Oven - Panasonic INVERTER NN-GT46KB Operating Instructions Manual

Care of Your Oven

1. Turn the oven off before cleaning.
2. Clean the inside of the oven, door
seals and door seal areas regularly.
When food splatters or spilled
liquids adhere to the oven walls,
door seals and door seal areas
wipe off with a damp cloth. Mild
detergent may be used if they
get very dirty. The use of harsh
detergent or abrasive is not
recommended.
Do not use commercial oven
cleaners.
3. 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 the glass.
4. The outside oven surface 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.
5. If the control panel becomes dirty,
clean it with a soft, dry cloth. Do not
use harsh detergents or abrasives
on the control panel. When
cleaning the control panel leave the
oven door open to prevent the oven
from accidentally turning on. After
cleaning touch stop/cancel pad to
clear display window.
6. If steam accumulates inside or
around the outside of the oven
door, wipe with a soft cloth. This
may occur when the oven is
operated under high humidity
conditions and in no way indicates
a malfunction of the unit.
7. It is occasionally necessary to
remove the glass tray for cleaning.
Wash the tray in warm soapy water
or in a dishwasher.
8. 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 and hot water then
dry with a clean cloth. The roller
ring may be washed in mild soapy
water. Cooking vapours collect
during repeated use but in no way
affects the bottom surface or roller
ring wheels. After removing the
roller ring from the cavity floor for
cleaning, be sure to replace it in the
proper position.
9. When using the grill 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.
10. A steam cleaner is not to be used
for cleaning.
11. This oven should only be serviced
by qualified personnel. For
maintenance and repair of the oven
contact the nearest authorised
dealer.
12. Failure to maintain the oven in
a clean condition could lead to
deterioration of surfaces that could
affect the life of the appliance and
possibly result in a hazardous
situation.
13. Keep air vents clean at all times.
Check that no dust or other material
is blocking any of the air vents on
the top, bottom or rear of the oven.
If air vents become blocked this
could cause overheating which
would affect the operation of the
oven and possibly result in a
hazardous situation.
