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 and Pizza; 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.
