Care and cleaning of the microwave oven.
Helpful Hints
An occasional thorough wiping with a solution of baking soda and water keeps
the inside fresh.
Unplug the cord before cleaning any part of this oven.
How to Clean the Inside
Walls, Floor, Inside Window, Heating Elements, Metal and Plastic Parts on the Door
Some spatters can be removed with a paper towel; others may require a damp cloth.
Remove greasy spatters with a sudsy cloth, then rinse with a damp cloth. Do not use
abrasive cleaners or sharp utensils on oven walls.
To clean the surface of the door and the surface of the oven that come together upon closing,
use only mild, nonabrasive soaps or detergents using a sponge or soft cloth. Rinse with a damp
cloth and dry.
Never use a commercial oven cleaner on any part of your microwave oven.
The heating elements cannot be removed.
Glass Microwave Turntable, Black Metal Tray and Turntable Support
To prevent breakage, allow the glass microwave turntable and black metal tray to cool
completely before cleaning. Wash carefully in warm, sudsy water or in the dishwasher.
A soap-filled scouring pad can also be used to clean the black metal tray. Do not use
abrasives, as they may damage the finish.
Rack
Clean with mild soap and water or in the dishwasher. Do not clean in a self-cleaning oven.
How to Clean the Outside
Do not use cleaners containing ammonia or alcohol on the microwave oven. Ammonia or alcohol
can damage the appearance of the microwave oven.
Case
Clean the outside of the microwave oven with a sudsy cloth. Rinse with a damp cloth and
then dry. Wipe the window clean with a damp cloth.
Control Panel and Door
Wipe with a damp cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not use cleaning sprays, large amounts of soap
and water, abrasives or sharp objects on the panel—they can damage it. Some paper towels
can also scratch the control panel.
Stainless Steel Surfaces
Do not use a steel-wool pad; it will scratch the surface.
To clean the stainless steel surface, use a hot, damp cloth with a mild detergent suitable for
stainless steel surfaces. Use a clean, hot, damp cloth to remove soap. Dry with a dry clean
cloth. Always scrub lightly in the direction of the grain.
Door Surface
It is important to keep the area clean where the door seals against the microwave oven.
Use only mild, non-abrasive detergents applied with a clean sponge or soft cloth. Rinse well.
Power Cord
If the cord becomes soiled, unplug and wash with a damp cloth. For stubborn spots, sudsy
water may be used, but be certain to rinse with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly before
plugging cord into outlet.
