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
Never use abrasive cleaners 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.
Cleaning the Grease Filters
The grease filters should be removed and cleaned often, at least once a month.
1.To remove grease filters, slide each filter to the side. Pull filters downward and push to the other side. The filter will drop out.
3.To reinstall the filters, slide it into the side slot, then push up and toward oven center to lock.
! | CAUTION |
To avoid risk of property damage, do not operate the hood vent system without the filters in place.
2.Wash in dishwasher or soak grease filters in hot water and a mild detergent. Rinse well and shake to dry. Do not use ammonia. The ammonia will darken the filter.
