4.1 Cleaning
WARNING: Never use gasoline,
solvent, abrasive cleaning
agents, metal objects or hard
brushes to clean the appliance.
WARNING: Never immerse the
appliance or its power cable in
water or in any other liquid.
1. Turn the appliance off and disconnect it
from wall socket.
2. Wait for the appliance to completely cool
down.
3. Keep the inside of the oven clean. Wipe
with a damp cloth when splashed food or
spilled liquids stick on the walls of the
oven. A mild detergent may be used if the
oven gets very dirty. Avoid using sprays
and other harsh cleaning agents as they
may cause stains, marks, and
opaqueness on the door surface.
4. Outer surfaces of the oven must be
cleaned with a damp cloth. Do not allow
water ingress from ventilation openings to
prevent damage to the operating parts in
the oven.
5. Wipe both sides of the door and the glass,
door gaskets and parts near the gaskets
frequently with a damp cloth in order to
remove the overflowing and splashing
stains. Do not use abrasive cleaning
agents.
6. Do not allow control panel to get wet.
Clean with a soft damp cloth. Leave the
door of the oven open to prevent
inadvertent operation while cleaning the
control panel.
7. If steam accumulates inside or around the
oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. This may
occur when the microwave oven is
operated under high humidity conditions.
It is normal.
8. In some cases, you may need to remove
the glass tray for cleaning. Wash the tray
in warm soapy water or in a dishwasher.

9. The roller ring and oven floor should be
cleaned regularly to avoid excessive
noise. It would be sufficient to wipe the
lower surface of the oven with a mild
detergent. Roller ring may be washed in
warm soapy water or in a dishwasher.
When you remove the roller ring from
oven internal floor for cleaning, ensure
that you install it in the correct position
while replacing it.
10. In order to remove bad odors in your
oven, put a glass of water and juice and
peel of a lemon to a deep bowl suitable for
use in microwave and operate the oven for
5 minutes in microwave mode. Wipe
thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth.
11. Please contact the authorized service
when the oven lamp needs to be
replaced.
12. The oven should be cleaned regularly
and any food deposits should be
removed. If the oven is not kept clean, this
may cause surface defects that would
affect the lifecycle of the appliance
negatively and that would possibly cause
risks.
13. Please do not dispose this appliance
with household waste; old ovens shall be
disposed to special waste centers
