Care of Your Microwave Oven

BEFORE CLEANING: Unplug oven at wall outlet.

If outlet is inaccessible, leave oven door open while cleaning.

AFTER CLEANING:

Be sure to replace Roller Ring and Ceramic Tray in the proper position and press Stop/Reset Button to clear the Display Window.

Inside of the oven:

Wipe with a damp cloth after using. Mild detergent may be used if needed.

DO NOT use harsh detergents or abrasives.

NOTE:

DO NOT use oven cleaners on the top of the oven.

Ceramic Tray:

Remove and wash in warm soapy water or in a dishwasher. If grease accumulates, clean with a non-abrasive nylon mesh scouring button and non caustic oven cleaners.

Outside oven surfaces: Clean with a damp cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts inside the oven, water should not be allowed to seep into ventilation openings.

Maintenance

Oven Door:

Wipe with a soft dry cloth when steam accumulates inside or around the outside of the oven door.

During cooking, especially under high humidity conditions, steam is given off from the food.

(Some steam will condence on cooler surfaces, such as the oven door. This is normal.) Inside surface is covered with a heat and vapor barrier film. DO NOT remove.

Roller Ring and oven cavity floor:

Clean the bottom surface of the oven with mild detergent water or window cleaner and dry. Roller Ring may be washed in mild soapy water or dishwasher. These areas should be kept clean to avoid excessive noise.

DO NOT remove waveguide cover: It is important to keep cover clean in the same manner as the inside of the oven.

Control Panel:

If the control panel becomes wet, clean with a soft, dry cloth. DO NOT use harsh detergents or abrasives.

IT IS IMPORTANT TO KEEP THE OVEN CLEAN AND DRY. FOOD RESIDUE AND CONDENSATION MAY CAUSE RUSTING OR ARCING AND DAMAGE TO THE OVEN. AFTER USE, WIPE DRY ALL SURFACES—INCLUDINGS, OVEN SEAMS, AND UNDER GLASS TRAY.

After Bake/Broil/Combination cooking, the oven should be cleaned with a soft cloth moistened in soapy water. If the oven is not cleaned occasionally to eliminate grease, it can accumulate and cause the oven to SMOKE during use. If smoking still occurs, run the oven without food on BROIL for 20 minutes.
