How To Clean

To Clean Your Oven
1. Keep the inside of the oven clean
Food spatters or spilled liquids stick to oven walls and between seal and door
surface. It is best to wipe up spillovers with a damp cloth immediately after
cooking. This includes any spillage under the tray. Crumbs and spillovers will
absorb microwave energy and lengthen cooking times. Use a damp cloth to
wipe out crumbs that fall between the door and the frame. It is important to
keep this area clean to assure a tight seal. Remove greasy spatters with a
soapy cloth then rinse and dry. Do not use harsh detergent or abrasive
cleaners. The Metal tray can be washed by hand or in the dishwasher.
2. Keep the outside of the oven clean
Clean the outside of your oven with soap and water then with clean water
and dry with a soft cloth or paper towel. To prevent damage to the operating
parts inside the oven, the water should not be allowed to seep into the
ventilation openings. To clean control panel, open the door to prevent oven
from accidentally starting, and wipe a damp cloth followed immediately by a
dry cloth. Press STOP/CLEAR after cleaning.
3. If steam accumulates inside or around the outside of the oven door, wipe the
panels 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.
4. The door and door seals should be kept clean. Use only warm, soapy water,
rinse then dry thoroughly.
DO NOT USE ABRASIVE MATERIALS, SUCH AS CLEANING POWDERS OR
STEEL AND PLASTIC PADS.
Metal parts will be easier to maintain if wiped frequently with a damp cloth.
5. Unplug your oven from the electrical socket when you clean the control panel
and glass with a soft damp cloth to prevent the unit from accidently turning
on if the Quick Start button is accidently pressed during cleaning.
To Clean the Cavity
Cavity front side
After cooking greasy food like baked chicken, wipe the
front side of the cavity with a soft sponge and neutral
detergent in the same direction of the textured
surface, and finish off with a soft dry towel. (Inside
of the door, remove any grease with a sponge or a
soft towel.)
Cavity inside
• Regularly wipe the inside with a damp towel or
sponge with a neutral detergent, and finish off
with a soft dry towel.
• If you do not clean the inside of the cavity for a
long time, oil stains may become difficult to
remove and cause unpleasant odours.
