Cleaning and Maintenance

Any piece of equipment works better and lasts longer when maintained properly and kept clean. Cooking equip-
ment is no exception. Your Microwave Oven must be kept clean and maintained properly.
Disconnect the power cord before cleaning or 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

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 door and touch Stop/Clear pad.

Interior - after microwave cooking

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
CLEANERS 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 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 microwave 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 filled
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.

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 fire. Do not remove the
waveguide cover.

Odor Removal

Occasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the microwave 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

The ceramic turntable and turntable support can be removed for easy cleaning. Wash them in mild, sudsy water; for stub-
born stains use a mild cleanser and scouring sponge as described above. They are also dishwasher-safe using top rack.
Microwave Oven Racks
The high and low baking racks can be removed for easy cleaning and stored away from the microwave oven when racks
are not needed. After each use, wash them in mild, sudsy water. For any stubborn stains, use a mild kitchen cleanser and
scouring sponge as described above. They are dishwasher-proof.
