Cleaning and Care • ENSURE THE CONVECTION DRAWERMICRO OVEN IS OFF BEFORE CLEANING TO PREVENT BURNS. • NEVER USE HARSH, ABRASIVE OR COMMERCIAL GRADE CLEANERS ON ANY PART OF THE OVEN. EXTERIOR The outside surface is precoated metal and glass. 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. STAINLESS STEEL SURFACE The exterior should be wiped often with a soft damp cloth and polished with a soft dry cloth to maintain its beauty. There are also a variety of products designed especially for cleaning and shining the stainless exterior of the oven. We recommend that the cleaner be applied to a soft cloth and then carefully used on the stainless exterior rather than sprayed directly on to it. Follow package directions carefully. FRONT SIDE OF THE DRAWER Wipe the window on both sides with a soft damp cloth to remove any spills or splatters. Metal parts will be easier to maintain if wiped frequently with a soft damp cloth. Avoid the use of spray and other harsh cleaners as they may stain, streak or dull the drawer surface. TOUCH CONTROL PANEL The touch pads may be deactivated before cleaning. See page 33 for CONTROL LOCK. 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 drawer and turn off Control Lock. Touch STOP/CLEAR. INTERIOR Before cleaning the Convection DrawerMicro oven, touch and hold the STOP/CLEAR button for 3 seconds to lock the control pad and the automatic door mechanism. The drawer can be locked in either the open or closed position. The display will show LOCK ON. This will prevent the drawer from accidentally opening or closing during cleaning. After cleaning, touch and hold the STOP/CLEAR button for 3 seconds to turn the lock off. The display will show LOCK OFF. Keep the interior of the oven clean and free of any food particles or liquid spills that can build up on the oven walls decreasing the cooking efficiency of the appliance. Never use a metal scouring pad or recycled paper towels that may flake off and leave metal particles inside the cavity. INTERIOR - AFTER MICROWAVE COOKING Cleaning is easy because no heat is generated to the interior surfaces. Therefore, there is no baking and setting of spills or splattering. To clean the interior surfaces, including drawer sealing surfaces, wipe with a soft damp cloth. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANERS OR SCOURING PADS. For heavier soil, use mild soap and wipe clean with a soft damp cloth. Do not use any chemical oven cleaners. INTERIOR - AFTER CONVECTION, ROAST, GRILL, SPEED COOK OR AIR FRY Splatters may occur because of moisture and grease. Wash immediately after use with hot, soapy water. Rinse and polish dry. Harder to remove splatters may occur if oven is not thoroughly cleaned or if there is long time/high temperature cooking. After cleaning the interior thoroughly, residual grease may be removed from the interior ducts and heater by simply operating the oven on 450˚F for 20 minutes without food. Ventilate the room if necessary. CONVECTION DRAWERMICRO OVEN GUIDES Remove the food crumbs from the Convection DrawerMicro oven guides. Wipe with a soft dry cloth in order to keep the Convection DrawerMicro oven opening and closing smoothly. ODOR REMOVAL USING MICROWAVE POWER Occasionally a cooking odor may remain in the 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. Let stand in microwave oven until cool. Wipe interior with a soft cloth. Note: Do not run the microwave power if the cavity is empty, as the microwaves will not be absorbed, increasing risk of fire in the cavity. TOP AND BOTTOM RACKS/TRAY The racks and tray can be removed for easy cleaning. Wash them in mild, sudsy water. For stubborn stains, use a mild cleanser and a non-abrasive scouring sponge. The racks and tray are also dishwasher safe. The racks may be washed in either the upper or lower section of the dishwasher, and the tray may be washed in the lower section. Do not use a self-cleaning oven to clean the racks or tray. E 34
