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.
Oven controls
Open the door before cleaning to de-activate the oven
controls. Care should be taken when cleaning the oven
control. 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.
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.
Turntable & turntable support
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.
NOTE: A steam cleaner should not be used.
NOTE: If you cook the food over the standard time with only 800 W, the power of the oven will lower automatically
to avoid overheating. (The microwave power level will be reduced to 560 W). After pausing for 90 seconds,
800 W power can be reset.
