CLEANING AND MAINTAINING
STORING AND REPAIRING YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
If you need to store your microwave oven for a short or extended period of time, choose a dust-free, dry
location. Dust and dampness may adversely affect the ability of the microwave parts.
WARNING
Do not repair, replace, or service any part of your microwave oven yourself. Allow only a qualified
service technician to perform repairs. If the oven is faulty and needs servicing, or you are in doubt
about its condition, unplug the oven from the power outlet and contact your nearest service center.
Do not use the oven if the microwave oven is damaged, in particular if the door or door seals are
damaged or the door does not close properly. This can be caused by a broken hinge, a worn out seal
or distorted/bent casing.
Do not remove the oven from its casing.
This microwave oven is for home use only and is not intended for commercial use.
