CLEANING AND CARE
• Cleaning the microwave oven is a significant part of the safe operation of
the device and will prevent health hazards.
• The device must be cleaned periodically, food residue must be removed.
If the device is not cleaned regularly, it can cause wear to the surface and
severely reduce the service life. Furthermore, it could result in limited safety
and functionality of the device.
• If the door sealing no longer closes reliably due to accumulated food resi-
due, microwave radiation may leak and damage your health.
• Clean the device after use to prevent mould, vermin, as well as leaking mi-
crowave radiation.
• Prior to each cleaning, switch off the microwave oven and disconnect the
mains plug.
• Do not use steam cleaners to clean the device! The steam is pressurized and
can condensate on the electrical components inside the device and cause
short-circuits.
• Do not use any abrasive cleaning agents or metal scrapers to clean the door
since they could scratch the surface and cause the glass to shatter.
• Clean the casing with a slightly damp cloth. Please be sure that no water
enters the appliance.
• Use a damp cloth to regularly and carefully clean the door sealing, cavity
and any adjacent components. Use a damp cloth to wipe off any food resi-
due or splashes.
• Make sure the display and control panel do not get wet. Clean by using a
soft, damp cloth. Leave the door open when cleaning the control panel in
order to prevent accidental operation.
• If steam condensates or forms drops inside the microwave or on the casing,
use a soft cloth to wipe it off. Condensation can occur if moist air meets a
cold surface. At very high temperatures, oil and grease can also evaporate
and deposit as a grease film after cooling off.
• The glass tray can be removed for cleaning. Clean the tray in warm, soapy
water or in the dishwasher.
• The turntable roller and the cavity bottom should be cleaned regularly to
prevent excessive noise. Simply use a mild household cleaner to wipe the
surface; allow it to dry. If the turntable roller is removed for cleaning, make
sure to re-insert it properly before next use. Regularly clean the door, win-
dow and sealing with a damp cloth to remove dirt.
• Odours in the cavity can be neutralized by filling a microwave-suitable cup
with water and lemon juice and boiling it in the microwave oven for 5 min-
utes. Wipe the cavity dry afterwards using a soft cloth.
• In the event that the light bulb inside the cavity must be replaced, please
contact qualified service personnel.
