Care and Cleaning

Your new microwave oven is a valuable appliance. Protect it from misuse by following these rules:

●Keep your oven clean and sweet-smelling. Opening the oven door a few minutes after cooking helps air-out the interior. An occasional thorough wiping with a solution of baking soda and water keeps the interior fresh.

●Don’t use sharp-edged utensils with your oven. The inside and outside oven walls can be scratched. The control panel can be damaged.

c Don’t remove the mode stirrer cover at the top of the oven (microwave feature 6 on page 5). You will damage the oven.

BE CERTAIN POWER IS OFF BEFORE CLEANING ANY PART OF THIS OVEN.

How to Clean the Inside

Walls, floor and mode stirrer cover. Some spatters can be removed with a paper towel, others may require a damp cloth. Remove greasy spatters with a sudsy cloth, then rinse with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners on oven walls.

NEVER USE A COMMERCIAL OVEN CLEANER ON ANY PART OF YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN.

Door (inside). Window: Wipe up spatters daily and wash when soiled with a damp cloth. Rinse thoroughly and dry.

Metal and plastic parts on door: Wipe frequently with a damp cloth to remove all soil. DO NOT USE ABRASIVES, SUCH AS CLEANING POWDERS OR STEEL AND PLASTIC PADS. THEY WILL MAR THE SURFACE.

Special note when using Brown ‘N Sear Dish: If grease is present, high heat generated on bottom of a Brown ‘N Sear dish may cause the grease to burn onto the oven floor. This may be removed with a cleanser such as Bon Ami@ brand cleanser.

After using this cleanser, rinse and dry thoroughly, following instructions on can. Do not use it on the painted surfaces such as the walls—it may scratch the paint.

Automatic Temperature Probe. Probe is sturdy, but care should be taken in handling. Do not twist or bend; avoid dropping temperature probe.

Clean as soon after using as possible. To clean, wipe with sudsy cloth, then rub lightly with plastic scouring ball if necessary. Rinse and dry. (Or wash in dishwasher.)

Shelf Accessory. Your shelf accessory is designed for use in a microwave oven only; do not use in a conventional oven. Do not use a browning dish with the shelf. Arcing could occur.

How to Clean the Outside

Case. Clean the outside of your oven with soap and damp cloth, rinse with a damp cloth and then dry.

Wipe the window clean with a damp cloth. Chrome trim is best wiped with a damp cloth and then with a dry towel.

Control Panel. Wipe with a damp cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not use cleaning sprays, large amounts of soap and water, abrasives, or sharp objects on the panel—they can damage it.

Door Surface. When cleaning surfaces of door and oven that come together on closing the door, use only mild, nonabrasive soaps or detergents applied with a sponge or soft cloth.

Power Cord. If the cord becomes soiled, unplug and wash with damp cloth. For stubborn spots, sudsy water may be used, but be certain to rinse with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly before plugging cord into outlet.
