CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
TROUBLESHOOTING
OVEN INTERIOR
Clean the microwave oven cavity after
each use with a mild detergent solution on
a soft cloth, pay special attention to the
waveguide cover.
Ensure all food splashes are wiped off immediately
after use, otherwise it is possible that any food
deposits will become baked onto the rear of the oven
cavity resulting in staining of the polished surface,
which may then be impossible to remove. Slight
tarnishing of the oven cavity around the area of the
convection heater is likely to occur. This effect does
not indicate a problem.
Take care not to let soapy water drip through the
small holes in the oven walls and the cavity floor
particularly if the turntable and turntable support are
removed. Excess water spillage through these holes
will cause damage to the oven interior. It is important
that the door seals and sealing surfaces are kept
clean at all times, wipe regularly with a damp cloth.
Do not allow grease or dirt to build up on
the door seals and sealing surfaces as this
may prevent the door from closing
correctly and may cause a leakage of
microwaves. Clean the door, door seals
and adjacent parts regularly with a damp
cloth, preferably before splashes and
grease become dried onto the surface.
OUTER CABINET
Wipe the outside cabinet with a mild detergent
solution on a soft cloth. The control panel must be
wiped clean whilst the door is open, therefore
deactivating the oven.
NOTE:
• Never use spray cleaners, oven pads or
abrasive scourers as these damage the
surface of the oven.
