CLEANING AND CARE
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
Wipe the window on both sides with a damp cloth to
remove any spills or spatters. Metal parts will be easier
to maintain if wiped frequently with a damp cloth. Avoid
the use of spray and other harsh cleaners as they may
stain, streak or dull the door surface.
TOUCH CONTROL PANEL
Care should be taken in cleaning the touch control panel.
If the control panel becomes soiled, open the microwave
oven door before cleaning. Wipe the panel with a cloth
dampened slightly with water only. Dry with a soft cloth.
Do not scrub or use any sort of chemical cleaners. Close
the door and touch the STOP/CLEAR pad.
WAVEGUIDE COVER
The waveguide cover is made from mica so it requires
special care. Keep the waveguide cover clean to assure
good microwave oven performance. 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 re.
Do not remove the waveguide cover.
INTERIOR - AFTER MICROWAVE
COOKING
Cleaning is easy because little heat is generated to the
interior surfaces; therefore, there is no baking and set-
ting of spills or spattering. To clean the interior surfaces,
wipe with a soft cloth and warm water. DO NOT USE
ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANERS OR SCOUR-
ING 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 MICROWAVE OVEN.
INTERIOR - AFTER CONVECTION,
MIX OR BROIL COOKING
Spatters may occur because of moisture and grease.
Wash immediately after use with hot, soapy water.
Rinse and polish dry. Harder to remove spatters may
occur if oven is not thoroughly cleaned or if there is long
time/high temperature cooking. If so, you may wish to
purchase an oven cleaner pad with liquid cleaner within
it —not a soap lled steel pad—for use on stainless or
porcelain surfaces. Follow manufacturer’s directions
carefully and be especially cautious not to get any of the
liquid cleaner in the perforations on the wall or ceiling
or any door surfaces. Rinse thoroughly and polish dry.
After cleaning the interior thoroughly, residual grease
may be removed from the interior ducts and heater by
simply operating the oven on 450˚F for 20 minutes
without food. Ventilate the room if necessary.
ODOR REMOVAL
Occasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the micro-
wave oven. To remove, 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 microwave oven until
cool. Wipe interior with a soft cloth.
TURNTABLE /
TURNTABLE SUPPORT / RACKS
The turntable, turntable support and racks 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 top rack of dishwasher for turntable support.
Foods with high acidity, such as tomatoes or lemons,
will cause the porcelain enamel turntable to discolor. Do
not cook highly acidic foods directly on the turntable;
if spills occur, wipe up immediately.
The turntable motor shaft is not sealed, so excess water
or spills should not be allowed to stand in this area.
Disconnect the power cord before cleaning or leave the door open to inactivate the microwave oven during cleaning.
