Care of Your Microwave Oven

1.Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply before cleaning.

2.Keep the inside of the oven clean. If pieces of food or spilled liquids stick to the oven walls, or between door seal and door surface, they will absorb microwaves and may cause arcing or sparks. Wipe up all spills with a damp cloth. Kitchen detergent or Food Sanitizer Solution may be used if the oven gets very dirty. Do not use harsh detergents or abrasives.

3.The outside surface of this microwave oven should be cleaned with soap and water, then dried with a soft cloth. Make sure that water does not get into the back ventilation or control panel, since this can damage the unit.

4.The window of the door should be washed with very mild soap and water. Be sure to use a soft cloth. Never use window cleaner. The front door can be scratched by harsh soap or detergents.

CLEANING OF THE

SPLATTER SHIELD

1.Locate the snap-in stoppers at the front corners of the splatter shield with both hands and pull them in and down. Take the splatter shield out of the oven cavity.

2.Rinse the splatter shield in soapy water or Food Sanitizer Solution. Dry.

3.Be sure to replace the shield before using the oven. Locate the pegs at the rear of the cavity first. Lift the front edge into place and the side stoppers should click into place.

CAUTION

Never operate the oven without the splatter shield securely in place. To do so will permanently damage the antenna in the roof of the oven.
