Disconnect the power cord before cleaning. If possible, leave the door open to inactivate the oven during cleaning.

Exterior

The outside surface is painted. Clean the outside with mild soap and water; rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Do not use any type of household or abrasive cleaner.

Door/Touch Control Panel

Care should be taken in cleaning the door/touch control panel.

Wipe the window on both sides with a damp cloth to remove any spills or spatters. Wipe the front side of the door (including the touch control panel) with a cloth dampened slightly with water only. Dry with a soft cloth. Do not scrub or use any sort of chemi- cal cleaners. Metal parts will be easier to maintain if wiped fre- quently with a damp cloth. Avoid the use of spray and other harsh cleaners as they may stain, streak or dull the door sur- face. Close door and touch STOP/Clear pad.

Interior

Cleaning is easy because little heat is generated to the interior surfaces; therefore, there is no baking and setting of spills or spattering. To clean the interior surfaces, wipe with a soft cloth and warm water. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEAN- ERS OR SCOURING PADS. For heavier soil, use baking soda or a mild soap; rinse thoroughly with hot water. NEVER SPRAY OVEN CLEANERS DIRECTLY ONTO ANY PART OF THE OVEN.

Waveguide Cover

The waveguide cover is made from mica so requires special care. Keep the waveguide cover clean to assure good oven per- formance. Carefully wipe with a damp cloth any food spatters from the surface of the cover immediately after they occur. Built- up splashes may overheat and cause smoke or possibly catch fire. Do not remove the waveguide cover.

Odor Removal

Occasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the oven. To re- move, combine 1 cup water, grated peel and juice of 1 lemon and several whole cloves in a 2-cup glass measuring cup. Boil for several minutes using 100% power. Allow to set in oven until cool. Wipe interior with a soft cloth.

Turntable/Turntable Support

The turntable and turntable support can be removed for easy cleaning. Wash them in mild, sudsy water; for stubborn stains use a mild cleanser and a non-abrasive scouring sponge. They are also dishwasher-proof. Use upper rack of dishwasher. The turntable motor shaft is not sealed, so excess water or spills should be wiped up immediately.
