GB 11
Cleaning
■ Clean the inside immediately after use.
Use a damp cloth to remove any
condensation, liquid that has boiled over
and food remains. Crumbs and liquid that
remain behind absorb microwave energy
and lengthen cooking times.
■ Clean the inside and outside of the oven
regularly using soapy water and dry it
thoroughly with a dry cloth.
■ Make sure that the microwave distributer
cover is clean. A cover which is not clean
may cause sparking.
■ Clean the accessories regularly; use soapy
water and a brush and dry the accessories
thoroughly with a dry cloth. The
accessories may also be washed in a
dishwasher.
■ Odours will disappear if you put a glass of
vinegar or water with lemon juice added in
the oven space. Switch the microwave on
for two minutes on full power. Then wipe
with a damp cloth.
■ Check the door catch and the door seal
regularly for damage.
■ Do not use the microwave oven if the door
or door catch are damaged.
