CARE AND CLEANING Oven interior 1) For easy cleaning, wipe any spatters or spills with a soft damp cloth or sponge at the end of each day. For heavier spills, use mild soap and rinse thoroughly with hot water. 2) At least once a week, remove the splash cover and wash in a mild detergent solution. The splash cover is located in the top of the oven and may easily be removed. REMEMBER TO UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. Remove two thumb screws (A) as shown in Fig. 1. Then remove the splash cover from the oven. To replace the splash cover, insert two projections of the cover (B) into the holes of the oven cavity backplate as shown in Fig. 2. And secure the cover to the oven ceiling with two thumb screws (A) as shown in Fig.1. 3) Wipe any grease, spills or spatters on the door seal surfaces with a soft damp cloth or sponge so that they do not build up. The door seals must always be free of grease and spatters so that the door closes properly. Door Fig.1 Splash cover (A) Door Wipe the door and window on both sides frequently with a damp cloth to remove any spills or spatters. Always keep the door seals and seal surfaces clean so that any grease, spills or spatters are not allowed to build up. Such a build-up could result in leakage of microwave energy from the oven.
