CLEANING
Wipe the oven inside and outside with a soft cloth and a mild detergent solution. Then rinse and wipe dry. For best drying results, use a cloth specially designed for stainless steel surfaces. The cloth can
be found at most kitchen accessory and hardware stores. This should be done on a weekly basis, more often if needed. Never use cleaning powders or rough pads. Excessive oil splatters on the inside top will be difficult to remove if left for many days. Wipe splatters with a wet paper towel, especially after cooking chicken or bacon.
REMOVABLE PARTS

•The turntable may be cleaned at the sink. Be careful not to chip or scratch the edges as this may cause the turntable to break during use.
•The turntable roller rest should be cleaned regularly.
SPECIAL CARE
