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.
Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to
deterioration of the surface that could adversely affect the life of the
appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.
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
