Care & Cleaning Cleaning suggestions For best performance and for safety reasons, keep the oven clean inside and outside. Take special care to keep the inner door panel and oven from frame free of food and grease build-up. Never use rough scouring powder or pads on the microwave. Wipe the microwave oven inside and out with a soft cloth and warm (not hot) mild detergent solution. Then rinse and wipe completely dry. Wipe spatters immediately with a wet paper towel, especially after cooking greasy foods like chicken or bacon. Follow these instructions to clean and care for your microwave oven: Keep the inside (cavity) of the oven clean. Food particles and spilled liquids can stick to the oven walls, causing the oven to work less efficiently. Wipe up spills immediately. Use a damp, clean cloth and mild detergent. DO NOT use harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners. To help loosen baked-on food particles or liquids, heat 2 cups of water (add the juice of 1 lemon if you desire to keep the oven fresh smelling) in a 4 cup measuring glass at High power for 5 minutes or until boiling. Let stand in oven cavity for 1 or 2 minutes. Remove the glass turntable tray from the oven when cleaning the oven cavity or tray. To prevent the glass turntable from breaking, handle with care and do not put it in water immediately after cooking. Wash the turntable tray with mild detergent. Clean the outside surface of the microwave with mild detergent and a clean damp cloth. Dry with a clean soft cloth .To prevent damage to the operating parts of the oven,do not let water seep into any vents or openings. Wash the oven door window with very mild soap and water. Be sure to use a soft clean cloth to avoid scratching. If steam accumulates inside or outside the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. Steam can accumulate when operating the oven in high humidity and in no way indicates microwave leakage. Never operate the oven without food in the oven cavity; this can damage the magnetron tube or glass tray. 14
