MICROWAVE OVEN CARE

GeneralCleaning

IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and the microwave oven is cool. Always follow label instructions on cleaning products.

Soap, water and a soft cloth or sponge are suggested unless otherwise noted.

MICROWAVE OVEN CAVITY

To avoid damage to the microwave oven cavity, do not use soap- filled scouring pads, abrasive cleaners, steel-wool pads, gritty washcloths or some recycled paper towels.

To avoid damage to stainless steel models, rub in direction of grain.

The area where the microwave oven door and frame touch when closed should be kept clean.

Average soil

Mild, nonabrasive soaps and detergents:

Rinse with clean water and dry with soft, lint-free cloth.

Heavy soil

Mild, nonabrasive soaps and detergents:

Heat 1 cup (250 mL) of water for 2 to 5 minutes in microwave oven. Steam will soften soil. Rinse with clean water and dry with soft, lint-free cloth.

Odors

Lemon juice or vinegar:

Heat 1 cup (250 mL) of water with 1 tbs (15 mL) of either lemon juice or vinegar for 2 to 5 minutes in microwave oven.

Microwave Inlet Cover

To avoid arcing and microwave oven damage, the microwave inlet cover (see “Parts and Features”) should be kept clean.

Wipe with wet cloth.

MICROWAVE OVEN DOOR AND EXTERIOR

The area where the microwave oven door and frame touch when closed should be kept clean.

Mild, nonabrasive soaps and detergents:

Rinse with clean water and dry with soft, lint-free cloth.

Glass cleaner and paper towels or nonabrasive plastic scrubbing pad:

Apply glass cleaner to towel, not directly to surface.

Stainless Steel (on some models)

To avoid damage to microwave oven door and exterior, do not use soap-filled scouring pads, abrasive cleaners, steel-wool pads, gritty washcloths or some paper towels. Rub in direction of grain.

Stainless Steel Cleaner and Polish (not included): See “Assistance or Service” section to order.

Liquid detergent or all-purpose cleaner:

Rinse with clean water and dry with soft, lint-free cloth.

Vinegar for hard water spots

CONTROL PANEL

Sponge or soft cloth and water:

Dampen sponge with water and wipe panel. Dry with soft cloth.

To avoid damage to the control panel, do not use chemical or abrasive cleansers.
