Care and Cleaning

Care and Cleaning

Clean oven frequently to maximize oven life, performance, and efficiency. A dirty oven cooks inefficiently because moisture, spills, and grease absorb convection and microwave energy.

!WARNING

To avoid electrical shock which can cause severe personal injury or death, unplug power cord or open circuit breaker to oven before cleaning oven.

!CAUTION

To prevent burns, handle utensils, racks, and door with care. Allow oven, utensils, racks to cool before cleaning. Oven, utensils, and racks, become hot during operation.

Recommended Cleaning Schedule

• Schedule daily cleaning and clean after use.

Clean interior, exterior, and door according to instructions.

Clean spills immediately.

Remove oven racks, and clean according to instructions.

Wipe dry after cleaning.

Cleaning Oven Exterior

Clean the door and other exterior surfaces with a clean cloth, sponge or nylon pad using a mild detergent and warm water solution. Wring cloth well to remove excess water before wiping oven.

Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners or cleaners containing ammonia.

Do not use water pressure type cleaning systems.

Cleaning Oven Cavity

Wipe the oven inside with a soft cloth and a mild detergent solution. Rinse and wipe dry. Never use cleaning powders, abrasives or other rough pads.

Excessive oil splatters on the inside top will be difficult to remove if left to sit. Wipe splatters with a wet paper towel as soon as they occur.

NOTE: A plastic putty knife or equivalent may be used to remove baked on debris.

Wear protective rubber gloves when cleaning oven.

Use only a plastic putty knife, nylon scouring pad or equivalent, to aid in removing soil or build-up from the oven interior.

Do not use knife, metal utensil, or steel wool pad to remove baked on material. This will damage the teflon coating.

Cleaning Oven Door

For best performance and safety, the inner door panel and the oven front frame should be free of food or grease build-up. Wipe often with a mild detergent and then rinse. Wipe dry with a soft cloth. Do NOT use cleaning powders, abrasives or other rough pads.

After cleaning the control panel, touch CANCEL/STOP pad to clear any entries that might have been accidentally made while cleaning. To avoid this problem, child lock may be set prior to cleaning.

Oven Turntable

The turntable and rotating ring are removable. They should be hand- washed in warm (not hot) water and a mild detergent. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. DO NOT use cleaning powders, abrasives, steel wool, or other rough pads. DO NOT put in an automatic dishwasher.

Turntable may be cleaned at the sink. Be careful not to chip or scratch the edges as this could cause the turntable to break during use.

Rotating ring must be cleaned regularly.

Turntable must ALWAYS be in place when using this oven.
