Care and Cleaning

Case

Clean the outside of the

microwave with a sudsy

cloth. Rinse and then dry.

Wipe the window clean

with a damp cloth.

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. Some paper

towels can also scratch

the control panel.

Door Panel

Before cleaning the front

door panel, make sure you

know what type of panel

you have. Refer to the

eighth digit of the model

number. “S” is stainless

steel, "G" is Graphite, “L”

is CleanSteel and “B”, “W”

or “C” are plastic colors.

Stainless Steel

The stainless steel panel

can be cleaned with

Stainless Steel Magic or

a similar product using

a clean, soft cloth. Apply

stainless cleaner carefully

to avoid the surrounding

plastic parts. Do not use

appliance wax, polish,

bleach or products

containing chlorine on

Stainless Steel finishes.

CleanSteel or Graphite

Use a clean, soft, light and

lightly dampened cloth,

then dry thoroughly. Do

not use appliance wax,

polish, bleach or products

containing any chemical

agent on the CleanSteel

or Graphite surfaces.

Plastic Color Panels

Use a clean, soft, lightly

dampened cloth, then dry

thoroughly.

Door Seal

It’s important to keep the

area clean where the door

seals against the microwave.

Use only mild, non-abrasive

detergents applied with a

clean sponge or soft cloth.

Rinse well.

Bottom

Clean off the grease and

dust on the bottom often.

Use a solution of warm

water and detergent.

We recommend against

using cleaners with

ammonia or alcohol,

as they can damage

the appearance of the

microwave oven. If you

choose to use a common

household cleaner, first

apply the cleaner directly

to a clean cloth, then

wipe the soiled area.
