MAINTENANCE

CARE AND CLEANING

For best performance and safety, keep the oven clean inside and outside. Take special care to keep the inner door panel and the oven front frame free of food or grease build-up. Never use rough powder or pads. Wipe the microwave oven inside and out, including the hood bottom cover, with a soft cloth and a warm(not hot) mild detergent solution. Then rinse and wipe dry. Use a chrome cleaner and polish on chrome, metal and aluminum surfaces. Wipe spatters immediately with a wet paper towel, especially after cooking chicken or bacon. Clean your oven weekly or more often, if needed.

CLEANING THE GREASE FILTERS

The grease filters should be removed and cleaned often, at least once a month.

1.To remove grease filters, slide each filter to the side. Pull filters downward

and push to the other side. The filter will drop out.

2.Soak grease filters in hot water and a mild detergent. Rinse well and shake to dry. Do not use ammonia or place in a dishwasher. The aluminum will darken.

3.To reinstall the filters, slide it into the side slot, then push up and toward oven center to lock.

wCAUTION

To avoid risk of personal injury

or property damage, do not operate oven hood

without filters in place.
