red.

AILURE TO MAINTAIN THE OVEN in a clean condition
could lead to deterioration of the surface that co-
uld adversely affect the life of the appliance and
possibly result in a hazardous situation.
DO NOT USE METAL SCOURING
PADS, ABRASIVE CLEANSERS,
steel-wool pads, gritty
washcloths, etc. which
can damage the control
panel, and the interior and exterior oven
surfaces. Use a sponge with a mild detergent
or a paper towel with spray glass cleaner.
Apply spray glass cleaner to a paper towel.
DO NOT SPRAY directly on the oven.
AT REGULAR INTERVALS, especially if spill
overs have occurred, remove the
turntable, the turntable support
and wipe the base of the oven
clean.
THIS OVEN IS DESIGNED to operate with the turnta-
ble in place.
DO NOT operate the microwave oven when
the turntable has been removed for cleaning.
USE A MILD DETERGENT, water and a soft cloth to
clean the interior surfaces, front and rear of the
door and the door opening.
DO NOT ALLOW GREASE or food particles to
build up around the door.
DO NOT USE STEAM CLEANING APPLIANCES when
cleaning your microwave oven.
ADDING SOME LEM ON JUICE to a cup of water, placing
this on the turntable and boiling for a few minu-
tes can eliminate odors inside the oven.
FOR STUBBORN STAINS, boil a cup of water in the
oven for 2 or 3 minutes. Steam will soften the
marks.
CAREFUL CLEANING:
THE CRISP-PLATE should be cleaned in mild, de-
tergent water. Heavily soiled
areas can be cleaned with a
scouring sponge and a mild
cleanser.
ALWA YS let the crisp-plate cool off before clea-
ning.
DO NOT immerse or rinse with water while the
crisp-plate is hot. Quick cooling may damage
it.
DO NOT USE STEEL-WOOL PADS. This will scratch
the surface.
THE GRILL ELEMENT does not need cleaning since
the intense heat will burn off any splashes, but
the cavity ceiling below it may need regular clea-
ning. This should be done with warm water, de-
tergent and a sponge. If the Grill is not used regu-
larly, it should be run for 10 minutes a month to
burn off any splashes.
