CARE AND CLEANING
For best performance and safety, keep the oven clean
inside and outside. 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.

METAL RACK

Wash the metal rack with a mild soap and a soft or
nylon scrub brush. Dry completely.
Do not use abrasive scrubbers or cleaners to clean
rack.

CLEANING THE GREASE FILTERS

The grease filter should be removed and cleaned
often, at least once a month.
1. Disconnect power or unplug microwave oven.
2. To remove grease filter, slide filter to the back.
Pull filter downward. The filter will drop out.
3. Soak grease filter in hot water and a mild detergent.
Scrub and swish to remove embedded dirt and
grease. Rinse well and shake to dry.
Do not clean filter with ammonia, corrosive
cleaning agents such as lye-based oven
cleaners, or place them in a dishwasher. The
filter will turn black or could be damaged.

CHARCOAL FILTER REPLACEMENT

If your oven is vented 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.
1. Disconnect power or unplug microwave oven.
2. Remove the two vent grille mounting screws.
3. Tip the grille forward, then lift out to remove.
4. Remove old filter.
