F Keeping your microwave oven clean improves its performance, wards off unnecessary repairs, and lengthens its life, CLEANING THE EXTERIOR It's best to clean spills on the outside of your microwave oven as they occur. Use a soft cloth and warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry. Do not get water into the vents. Never use abrasive ....... products or chemical solvents such as ammonia or alcohol as they can damage the appearance of your microwave. Cleaning under your microwave oven Regularly clean grease and dust from the bottom of your microwave using a solution of warm water and detergent. Cleaning the control panel Wipe with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Do not use cleaning sprays, large amounts of soap and water, abrasives or sharp objects on the panel as it is easily damaged. Cleaning the door and door seals Always ensure that the door seals are clean and that the door closes properly. Take particular care when cleaning the door seals to ensure that no particles accumulate and prevent the door from closing correctly. Wash the glass door with very mild soap and water. Be sure to use a soft cloth to avoid scratching. If a thin film of water accumulates on the inside or outside of the oven door, wipe it off with a soft cloth. A thin water film can accumulate when you operate the oven at high humidity and in no way indicates microwave leakage. CLEANING THE INTERIOR CLEANING THE TURNTABLE AND ROLLER RINGS Clean the roller rings periodically and wash the turntable as required. You can wash the turntable safely in your dishwasher.
