Care and Cleaning
Counter top Microwave Oven
An occasional thorough wiping with a solution
of baking soda and water keeps the inside
fresh.
UNPLUG THE CORD BEFORE CLEANING
ANY PART OF THIS OVEN.
How to
Clean the
Inside
Walls, Floor, Inside Window, Mode Stirrer
Cover and Metal and Plastic Parts on the Door.
Some spatters can be removed with a paper
towel, others may require a damp cloth.
Remove greasy spatters with a sudsy cloth,
then rinse with a damp cloth. Do not use
abrasive cleaners on oven walls. NEVER USE
A COMMERCIAL OVEN CLEANER ON ANY
PART OF YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN.
To clean the surface of the door and the surface
of the oven that come together upon closing, use
only mild nonabrasive soaps or detergents using
a sponge or soft cloth. Rinse with a damp cloth
and dry.
Removable Turntable and Turntable Support.
To prevent breakage, do not place the turntable
into water just after cooking. Wash it carefully in
warm, sudsy water or in the dishwasher. The
turntable and support can be broken if
dropped. Remember, do not operate the oven
without the turntable and support in place.
How to
Clean the
Outside
Do not use cleaners containing ammonia or
alcohol on the microwave oven. Ammonia
or alcohol can damage the appearance of
the microwave.
Case. Clean the outside of the microwave with
a sudsy cloth. Wipe the window clean with a
damp cloth.
Control Panel and Door. Wipe with a damp
cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not use cleaning
sprays, large amounts of soap and water,
abrasives or sharp objects on the panel—they
can damage it. Some paper towels can also
scratch the control panel.
Door Surface. It’s important to keep the area
clean where the door seals against the
microwave. Use only mild, non-abrasive soaps or
detergents applied with a sponge or soft cloth.
Rinse well.
Stainless Steel. Do not use a steel-wool pad; it
will scratch the surface.
To clean the stainless
steel surface, use a hot, damp cloth with a mild
detergent suitable for stainless steel surfaces.
Use a clean, hot, damp cloth to remove soap.
Dry with a dry, clean cloth. Always scrub lightly
in the direction of the grain.
Power Cord. If the cord becomes soiled, unplug
and wash with a damp cloth. For stubborn
spots, sudsy water may be used, but be certain
to rinse with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly
before plugging cord into outlet.
