Caring for Your Microwave
Oven
To make sure your microwave oven looks good and works well for a long time, you should
maintain it properly. For proper care, please follow these instructions carefully.
For interior surfaces: Wash often with
warm, sudsy water and a sponge or soft
cloth. Use only mild, nonabrasive soaps
or a mild detergent. Be sure to keep the
areas clean where the door and oven
frame touch when closed. Wipe well with
clean water. Over time, stains can occur on
the surfaces as the result of food particles
spattering during cooking. This is normal.
For stubborn soil, boil a cup of water in the
oven for 2 or 3 minutes. Steam will soften
the soil. To get rid of odors inside the oven,
boil a cup of water with lemon juice or
vinegar.
For exterior surfaces and control panel:
Use a soft cloth with spray glass cleaner.
Apply the spray glass cleaner to the soft
cloth; do not spray directly on the oven.
NOTE: Abrasive cleansers, steel-wool
pads, gritty wash cloths, some paper
towels, etc., can damage the control panel
and the interior and exterior oven surfaces.
To clean turntable and turntable support,
wash in mild, sudsy water; for heavily soiled
areas use a mild cleanser and scouring
sponge. The turntable and turntable support
are dishwasher-safe.
