Care and Cleaning

CARE AND CLEANING

For best performance and safety,

keep the oven clean inside and out-side. 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.

Follow these instructions to clean and care for your oven.

Keep the inside of the oven clean. Food particles and spilled liquids can stick to the oven walls, causing the oven to work less efficiently.

Wipe up spills immediately. Use a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not use harsh detergents or abrasives.

To help loosen baked on food particles or liquids, heat two cups of water (add the juice of one lemon if you desire to keep the oven fresh) in a four-cup measuring glass at High power for five minutes or until boiling. Let stand in the oven for one or two minutes.

Remove the glass tray from the oven when cleaning the oven or tray. To prevent the tray from breaking, handle it carefully and do not put it in water immediately after cooking. Wash the tray carefully in warm sudsy water or in the dishwasher.

Clean the outside surface of the oven with soap and a damp cloth. Dry with a soft cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts of the oven, don’t let water seep into the openings.

Wash the door window with very mild soap and water. Be sure to use a soft cloth to avoid scratching.

If steam accumulates inside or outside the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. Steam can accumulate when operating the oven in high humidity and in no way indicates microwave leakage.

Never operate the oven without food in it; this can damage the magnetron tube or glass tray. You may wish to leave a cup of water in the oven when it is not in use to prevent damage if the oven is accidentally turned on.

CLEANING THE GREASE FILTER

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

CAUTION

To avoid risk of personal injury or property damage, do not operate oven hood without filters in place.

1.To remove grease filter, slide filter to the side. Pull filter downward and push to the other side. The filter will drop out.

2.Soak grease filter 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 filter, slide it into the side slot, then push up and toward oven center to lock.

CHARCOAL FILTER

REPLACEMENT

If your oven is vented to the inside, the charcoal filter should be replaced every 6 to 12 months, and more often if necessary. The charcoal filter cannot be cleaned. To order a new charcoal filter, contact the Parts Department at your nearest Authorized Service Center or call

1-800-688-9900 (inside U.S.A) or 1-800-688-2002 (Canada).
