Care and Cleaning
CARE AND CLEANING
For best performance and safety,
keep the oven clean inside and out-
side. Take special care to keep the
inner door panel and the oven front
frame free of food or grease build-up.
Never use rough powder or pads.
Wipe the microwave oven inside and
out, including the hood bottom cover,
with a soft cloth and a warm (not hot)
mild detergent solution. Then rinse and
wipe dry. Use a chrome cleaner and
polish on chrome, metal and aluminum
surfaces. Wipe spatters immediately
with a wet paper towel, especially after
cooking chicken or bacon. Clean your
oven weekly or more often, if needed.
METAL RACK
Wash the metal rack with a mild
soap and a soft or nylon scrub brush.
Dry completely. Do not use abrasive
scrubbers or cleaners to clean rack.
CLEANING THE GREASE
FILTER
The grease filter should be removed
and cleaned often, at least once a
month.
1. To remove grease filter, slide filter
to the side. Pull filter downward and
push to the other side. The filter will
drop out.
2. Soak grease filter in hot water and
a mild detergent. Rinse well and
shake to dry. Do not use ammonia
or place in a dishwasher. The
aluminum will darken.
3. To reinstall the filter, slide it into the
side slot, then push up and toward
oven center to lock.
To avoid risk of personal injury or
property damage, do not operate
oven hood without filters in place.
