CARING FOR YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
CARE AND CLEANING
For best performance and safety, keep the oven
clean inside and outside. Take special care to keep
the inner door panel and the oven front frame
free of food or grease build-up. Never use rough
powder or pads. Wipe the microwave oven inside
and out, including the hood bottom cover, with a soft
cloth and a warm (not hot) mild detergent solution.
Then rinse and wipe dry. Use a chrome cleaner and
polish on chrome, metal and aluminum surfaces. Wipe
spatters immediately with a wet paper towel, especially
after cooking chicken or bacon. Clean your oven
weekly or more often, if needed.
METAL RACK
Wash the metal rack with a mild soap and a soft or
nylon scrub brush. Dry completely. Do not use
abrasive scrubbers or cleaners to clean rack.

cleaned often, at least once a month.
