➢
Before you clean the oven, turn it off and unplug it.
➢
Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food or liquids stick to the oven walls,
wipe with a damp cloth. We recommend that you do not use harsh detergent or
abrasives.
➢
On the right hand side wall of the cavity is the wave guide cover, microwaves are
passed through this to enable your food to cook. It is important that this wave
guide cover is kept clean at all times. To do this wipe with mild detergent and
water, then dry.
➢
You should clean the outside of the oven with a damp cloth. Don’t allow water to
seep into the ventilation openings.
➢
Do not allow the control panel to become wet. Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do
not use detergents, abrasives or spray-on cleaners on the control panel.
➢
If steam builds up inside or around the outside of the oven door, wipe with a soft
cloth. This may happen when the microwave oven is used in humid conditions.
➢
Regularly remove the glass turntable to clean it, and wash it in warm soapy water.
➢
Regularly clean the turntable support and oven floor. Simply wipe the bottom
surface of the oven with mild detergent and water, then dry. You can wash the
turntable support in mild soapy water.
➢
When removing the turntable support of the oven, make sure you put it back
properly.
➢
If the inside of the oven smells, put a cup of water with the juice and skin of one
lemon in a deep microwave bowl. Microwave it for three minutes, wipe thoroughly
and then dry with a soft cloth.
➢
Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition, especially if liquid is left under
the turntable, could lead to deterioration of the surface that could adversely affect
the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous condition.
