Oven Vents

The oven vents are located above and below the oven cavity as well as at the sides and the top of the appliance frame. Warm air may be released from the top and bottom vents before, during and after cooking. It is normal to see steam escaping from these vents, and condensation may collect in this area. This area may be warm when the oven is in use. Do not block any vents, since they are important for air circulation.

Cooling Fan

The cooling fan runs during all cooking modes. The fan can be heard when it is running, and warm air may be felt as it is released from the oven vents. The fan may also run after the oven is off.

Convection Fan

The convection fan operates during all convection modes. When the oven is operating in a convection mode, the fan turns off automatically when the door is opened.

Oven light

The oven light turns off to save energy after one minute with the door open. To turn the light back on, close the door and open it again.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Cleaning Guide

  • For best performance and for safety reasons, keep the oven clean inside and outside. Take special care to keep the inner door panel and oven front frame free of food and grease build–up.
  • Never use abrasive scouring powder or pads on the microwave. Wipe the microwave oven inside and out with a soft cloth and warm (not hot) mild detergent solution. Then rinse and wipe completely dry.
  • Wipe spatters immediately with a wet paper towel, especially after cooking greasy foods like chicken or bacon.
  • Clean your microwave oven weekly or more often, if needed.
  • Never operate the microwave oven without food in the oven cavity, unless pre-heating with Convection, Pizza, Frozen Foods and Keep Warm mode; this can damage the magnetron tube or ceramic tray. You may wish to leave a cup of water standing inside the oven when it is not in use to prevent damage if the oven is accidentally turned on.

Part

Recommendations

Oven cavity

Keep inside (cavity) of the oven clean. Food particles and spilled liquids can stick to the oven walls, causing the oven to work less efficiently.

Wipe up spills immediately. Use a damp, clean cloth and mild soap. DO NOT use harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.

To help loosen baked–on food particles or liquids, heat 2 cups of water (add the juice of 1 lemon if you desire to keep the oven fresh smelling) in a 4 cup measuring glass at High power for 5 minutes or until boiling. Let stand in oven cavity for 1 or 2 minutes.

For baked-on grease spatters, wash with hot, soapy water, rinse and dry.

Wire rackWash with soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry, or gently rub with cleansing powder or soap-filled pads as directed. The wire rack can also be washed in the dishwasher.

Remove metal turntable tray from the oven when cleaning the oven cavity and tray.

Wash the metal turntable tray in warm sudsy water or in the dishwasher.

Ceramic trayClean with warm, soapy water or in the dishwasher.
Door sealWipe with damp cloth.
Door glass

Wash with soap and water or glass cleaner. Use Fantastik® or Formula 409® to a clean sponge or paper towel and wipe clean. Avoid using powder cleaning agents, steel wool pads and oven cleaners.

If steam accumulates inside or outside the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. Steam can accumulate when operating the oven in high humidity and in no way indicates microwave leakage.

Painted surfacesClean with hot soapy water or apply Fantastik® or Formula 409® to a clean sponge or paper towel and wipe clean. Avoid using powder cleaning agents, steel wool pads and oven cleaners.
Stainless steel surfaces/ exterior surfacesAlways wipe or rub in the direction of the grain. Clean with a soapy sponge, then rinse and dry, or wipe with Fantastik® or Formula 409® spray on a paper towel. Protect and polish with Stainless Steel Magic® and a soft cloth. Remove water spots with a cloth dampened with white vinegar.
