CLEANING AND CARE
Disconnect the power cord before cleaning or leave the door open to inactivate the oven during cleaning.
Exterior
The outside surface is painted. Clean the outside with
mild soap and water. Then wipe with a clean dampened
cloth and polish dry with a soft cloth. Do not use any
type of household or abrasive cleaner.
Door
Wipe the window on both sides with a soft damp cloth to
remove any spills or spatters. Metal parts will be easier
to maintain if wiped frequently with a soft damp cloth.
Cleaners which are marked speci cally for use with
stainless steel may be used for stainless steel models.
Follow package directions exactly. Avoid the use of any
harsh cleaners or one not marked for stainless steel use
as they may stain, streak or dull the door surface.
Touch Control Panel
Wipe the panel with a soft cloth dampened slightly with
water only. Dry with a soft cloth. Do not scrub or use
any sort of chemical cleaners. Close door and touch
STOP/CLEAR.
Interior
Cleaning is easy because little heat is generated to the
interior surfaces; therefore, there is no baking and setting
of spills or spattering. To clean the interior surfaces,
wipe with a soft damp cloth. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE
OR HARSH CLEANERS OR SCOURING PADS. For
heavier soil, use baking soda or a mild soap; wipe
clean with a soft damp cloth.
NEVER SPRAY OVEN
CLEANERS DIRECTLY ONTO ANY PART OF
THE OVEN.
Waveguide Cover
The waveguide cover is made from mica so it requires
special care. Keep the waveguide cover clean to assure
good oven performance. Carefully wipe with a soft damp
cloth any food spatters from the surface of the cover
immediately after they occur. Built-up splashes may
overheat and cause smoke or possibly catch re. Do
not remove the waveguide cover.
Odor Removal
Occasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the oven.
To remove, combine 1 cup water, grated peel and juice
of 1 lemon and several whole cloves in a 2-cup glass
microwave-safe measuring cup. Boil for several minutes
using 100% power. Allow to set in oven until cool. Wipe
interior with a soft cloth.
Turntable/Turntable Support
The turntable and turntable support can be removed
for easy cleaning. Wash them in mild, sudsy water; for
stubborn stains use a mild cleanser and non abrasive
scouring sponge. They are also dishwasher-safe. Use
upper rack of dishwasher. The turntable motor shaft is
not sealed, so excess water or spills should be wiped
up immediately.
