OVEN CARE
General Cleaning
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and the microwave oven is cool. Always follow label instructions on
cleaning products.
Soap, water and a soft cloth or sponge are suggested unless otherwise noted.
GREASE FILTERS
Do not use ammonia or corrosive cleaning agents such as lye-
based oven cleaners.
Hot water and mild detergent:
Soak filters, then scrub and swish to remove embedded dirt
and grease. Rinse well and shake to dry.
Dishwasher:
Wash separately, not with dirty dishes, because food can be
trapped in the filters.
NOTE: Some discoloration of the filters may occur after
cleaning them in the dishwasher. This is normal, and will not
affect the performance of the grease filters.
OVEN CAVITY
The gray finish inside the oven cavity is a durable, nonstick
coating that makes soils easier to remove.
Do not use metal or sharp utensils or scrapers, soap-filled
scouring pads, abrasive cleaners, steel-wool pads, gritty
washcloths or some recycled paper towels. Damage may occur.
If damage does occur, special touch up paint may be applied.
See “Assistance or Service” to order.
The area where the oven door and frame touch when closed
should be kept clean.

Rinse with clean water and dry with soft, lint-free cloth.

Mild, nonabrasive soaps and detergents:
