pliance or its power cable in water or

damp cloth when splashed food or spilled liq-
uids stick on the walls of the oven. A mild de-
tergent may be used if the oven gets very dirty.
Avoid using sprays and other harsh cleaning

with a damp cloth. Do not allow water ingress
from ventilation openings to prevent damage to
the operating parts in the oven.

gaskets and parts near the gaskets frequently
with a damp cloth in order to remove the over-
flowing and splashing stains. Do not use abra-
sive cleaning agents.

a soft damp cloth. Leave the door of the oven
open to prevent inadvertent operation while
cleaning the control panel.

door, wipe with a soft cloth. This may occur
when the microwave oven is operated under
high humidity conditions. It is normal.

glass tray for cleaning. Wash the tray in warm
soapy water or in a dishwasher.

the oven lamp needs to be replaced.
