Cleaning Your Microwave Oven
The following parts of your microwave oven should be cleaned
regularly to prevent grease and food particles from building up:
•
Inside and outside surfaces
•
Door and door seals
•
Turntable and Roller rings
☛
ALWAYS ensure that the door seals are clean and the door
closes properly.
1.
Clean the outside surfaces with a soft cloth and warm, soapy water. Rinse and
dry.
2.
Remove any splashes or stains on the inside surfaces or on the roller ring with
a soapy cloth. Rinse and dry.
3.
To loosen hardened food particles and remove smells, place a cup of diluted
lemon juice on the turntable and heat for ten minutes at maximum power.
4.
Wash the dishwasher-safe plate whenever necessary.
✉
DO NOT
spill water in the vents. NEVER use any abrasive
products or chemical solvents. Take particular care when
cleaning the door seals to ensure that no particles:
•
Accumulate

Prevent the door from closing correctly
