WAVEGUIDE COVER
The waveguide cover is made from mica so 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 stubborn 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.
FAN
The fan will automatically start when heat rises from the
cooking surface and when convection, high mix, low mix
or the broil settings are used. This protects the microwave
oven from excessive temperature rise. The fan will stay on
until the temperature decreases. It cannot be turned off
manually during this time.
For other uses, select either high or low speed.
PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE:
1. DO NOT leave cooking surface unattended while
using high temperatures. Automatic fan may start and
provide excessive air to the surface units. This may
cause spattering or boilover.
2. Avoid burning food.
3. Keep grease filters clean.
Disconnect the power cord before cleaning or leave
the door open to inactivate the microwave 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.
