We recommend against using cleaners with
ammonia or alcohol, as they can damage the
appearance of the microwave oven. If you
choose to use a common household cleaner,
first apply the cleaner directly to a clean cloth,
then wipe the soiled area.
Bottom
Clean off the grease and dust on the bottom
often. Use a solution of warm water and
detergent.
Case
Clean the outside of the microwave with
a sudsy cloth.
Rinse 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.
Door Seal
It is important to keep the area clean where
the door seals against the microwave. Use only
mild, non-abrasive detergents applied with a
clean sponge or soft cloth. Rinse well.
Stainless Steel (on some models)
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.
If food soil remains, try a general kitchen
cleaner.
For hard-to-clean soil, use a standard stainless
steel cleaner, such as Bon-Ami
®
or Cameo.
®
Apply cleaner with a damp sponge. Use a
clean, hot, damp cloth to remove cleaner.
Dry with a dry, clean cloth. Always scrub
lightly in the direction of the grain.
After cleaning, use a stainless steel polish, such
as Stainless Steel Magic,
®
Revere Copper and
Stainless Steel Cleaner
®
or Wenol All Purpose
Metal Polish.
®
Follow the product instructions
for cleaning the stainless steel surface.
