Cleaning Your Microwave Oven
The following parts of your microwave oven should be cleaned
regularly to prevent grease and food particles from building up:
• Inside and outside surfaces
• Door and door seals
• Turntable and Roller rings
☛ ALWAYS ensure that the door seals are clean and the door
closes properly.
1. Clean the outside surfaceswith a soft cloth and warm, soapy water. Rinse and
dry.
2. Remove any splashes or stains on the inside surfaces or on the roller ring with
a soapy cloth. Rinse and dry.
3. To loosen hardened food particles and remove smells, place a cup of diluted
lemon juice on the turntable and heat for ten minutes at maximum power.
4. Wash the dishwasher-safe plate whenever necessary.
✉ DO NOT spill water in the vents. NEVER use any abrasive
products or chemical solvents. Take particular care when
cleaning the door seals to ensure that no particles:
• Accumulate
• Prevent the door from closing correctly
Storing and Repairing Your Microwave Oven
A few simple precautions should be taken when storing or having your
microwave oven serviced.
The oven must not be used if the door or door seals are damaged:
• Broken hinge
• Deteriorated seals
• Distorted or bent oven casing
Only a qualified microwave service technician should perform repair.
☛ NEVER remove the outer casing from the oven. If the oven is
faulty and needs servicing or you are in doubt about its
condition:
• Unplug it from the wall socket
• Contact the nearest after-sales service centre
✉ If you wish to store your oven away temporarily, choose a dry,
dust-free place.

parts in the oven.
