The appliance must always be kept clean. Deposits that are
allowed to remain on the oven walls, door seal and door
surface will absorb microwave energy, reduce the efficiency
of the microwave oven, and possibly damage the
microwave interior. DO NOT attempt to tamper with
or make any adjustments or repairs to any part of the
microwave oven. Repairs should only be done by
a qualified service technician.
Cleaning the accessories
Clean accessories with mild detergent after removing
them from the cavity. The turntable support should be
carefully handled.
Cleaning the interior
Always keep the inside of the oven clean. Wipe up spillovers
and food spatters immediately. Use mild, liquid detergent,
warm water and a soft, clean cloth to remove deposits.
Cleaning the grill element
The element may be stained with spattered fat or oil while
the oven is in use. Wait until the cavity cools down and
wipe off the spattered oil before next using the appliance.
Stains on the grill may cause unpleasant odors and smoke.
Cleaning the exterior
Open the microwave oven door when cleaning the control
panel. This will prevent the appliance from being turned on
accidentally. You should clean the outside surfaces of the
microwave oven with mild liquid detergent and warm water,
followed by a wiping with clean water to remove any excess
detergent. Dry with a soft cloth. Spray-on window cleaners
or all purpose spray-on kitchen cleaners can also be used.
To prevent damage to the working parts, do not allow
water to seep into ventilation openings.
NEVER USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS, SCOURING PADS
OR HARSH CHEMICALS ON THE OUTSIDE SURFACES
OF YOUR APPLIANCE.

To loosen difficult deposits, boil a cup of water in the oven
for 2 or 3 minutes.
Never use a knife or any utensil to remove deposits from
the oven surfaces.
To remove odors from the oven interior, boil a cup of water
plus 2 tablespoons of lemon juice for 5 minutes.
