cleaning and maintaining your microwave oven
Keeping your microwave oven clean improves its performance, wards off unnecessary repairs, and lengthens its life.
Cleaning the exterior
It’s best to clean spills on the outside of your microwave oven as they occur. Use a soft cloth and warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry.

Cleaning the interior
Ensure that the microwave oven has cooled down before cleaning it to avoid injury.

Cleaning the door and door seals
Always ensure that the door seals are clean and that the door closes properly. Take particular care when cleaning the door seals to ensure that no particles accumulate and prevent the door from closing correctly. Wash the glass door with very mild soap and water. Be sure to use a soft cloth to avoid scratching.
If steam accumulates inside or outside the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. Steam can accumulate when operating the oven at high humidity and in no way indicates microwave leakage.
Cleaning the turntable and roller rings
Clean the roller rings periodically and wash the turntable as required. The turntable can safely be washed in your microwave oven.
