1. Switch the oven off before cleaning
and unplug at socket if possible.
2. Keep the inside of the oven, door
seals and door seal areas clean.
When food splatters or spilled liquids
adhere to oven walls, door seals and
door seal areas wipe off with a damp
cloth. Mild detergent may be used if
they get very dirty. The use of harsh
detergent or abrasives is not
recommended.
3. The grill in the oven has a self-clean
catalytic lining. It is therefore not
necessary to clean the radiant grill
element or above the grill in the roof of
the oven.
4. After using CONVECTION, GRILL or
COMBINATION cooking the enamel
walls of the oven should be cleaned
with a soft cloth squeezed in soapy
water. Particular care should be taken
to keep the window area clean
particularly after cooking by
CONVECTION, GRILL or
COMBINATION. Stubborn spots inside
the oven can be removed by using a
small amount of branded conventional
oven-cleaner applied to a soft damp
cloth. Wipe onto problem spots, leave
for recommended time and then wipe
off. Avoid the microwave feed guide
area, the roof of the oven, and the door.
DO NOT SPRAY DIRECTLY INSIDE
THE OVEN.
5. The outside oven surface
should be
cleaned with a damp cloth. To prevent
damage to the operating parts inside
the oven, water should not be allowed
to seep into the ventilation openings.
6. If the Control Panel
becomes dirty,
clean with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use
harsh detergents or abrasives on
Control Panel. When cleaning the
Control Panel, leave the oven door
open to prevent the oven from
accidentally turning on. After cleaning
touch STOP/CANCEL Pad to clear
display window.
7. If steam accumulates
inside or around
the outside of the oven door, wipe with
a soft cloth. This may occur when the
microwave oven is operated under high
humidity conditions and in no way
indicates a malfunction of the unit or
microwave leakage.
8. It is occasionally necessary to remove
the glass turntable
for cleaning. Wash
the turntable in warm soapy water. Do
not place in the dishwasher.
9. The roller ring and oven cavity floor
should be cleaned regularly to avoid
excessive noise. Simply wipe the
bottom surface of the oven, particularly
the turntable spindle and the area
surrounding this, with mild detergent
and hot water then dry with a clean
cloth. The roller ring may be washed in
mild soapy water. Cooking vapours
collect during repeated use but in no
way affect the bottom surface or the
roller ring wheels.
After removing the roller ring from cavity
floor for cleaning, be sure to replace it
in the proper position.
10.When GRILLING or cooking by
COMBINATION or CONVECTION
some foods may splatter grease onto
the enamel oven walls. If the oven is
not cleaned to eliminate this grease, it
can accumulate and cause the oven to
‘SMOKE’ during use. These marks will
be more difficult to clean later.
11.Ensure all accessories
are kept
scrupulously clean, especially when
using microwave or combination
programs.
12.A steam cleaner is not to be used for
cleaning.
13.Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or
sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven
door glass since they may scratch the
surface, which may result in shattering
of the glass.
14. Keep air vents clean at all times. Check
that no dust or other material is blocking
any of the air vents on the top, bottom
or rear of the oven. If air vents become
blocked this could cause overheating
which would affect the operation of the
oven and possibly result in a hazardous
situation.
Care & Cleaning of your Microwave Oven -
IMPORTANT
It is essential for the safe operation of the oven that it is kept clean, and wiped out
after each use. Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to
deterioration of the surface that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and
possibly result in a hazardous situation.
