Oven exterior
The outside of your oven can be cleaned easily with
mild soap and water. Make sure the soap is wiped off
with a moist cloth, and dry the exterior with a soft towel.
Oven controls
Open the door before cleaning to de-activate the oven
controls. Care should be taken when cleaning the
oven control. Using a cloth dampened with water
only, gently wipe the panel until it becomes clean.
Avoid using excessive amounts of water. Do not use
any sort of chemical or abrasive cleaner.
Oven Interior
1. For cleaning, wipe any splatters or spills with a soft
damp cloth or sponge after each use while the
oven is still warm. For heavier spills, use a mild
soap and wipe several times with a damp cloth
until all residues are removed. Do not remove the
waveguide cover.
2. Make sure that mild soap or water does not
penetrate the small vents in the walls which may
cause damage to the oven.
3. Do not use spray type cleaners on the oven interior.
Turntable and Roller stay
Remove the turntable and roller stay from the oven.
Wash the turntable and roller stay in mild soapy
water. Dry with a soft cloth. Both the turntable and the

of the door, the door seals and adjacent parts with a
