Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning and maintenance will ensure the longevity and efficient operation of your microwave oven.

• Interior Cleaning: After each use, wipe the interior with a damp cloth and mild detergent. For stubborn stains, place a bowl of water with lemon slices inside and heat for 2-3 minutes on high power. This will loosen food particles, making them easier to wipe away.
• Exterior Cleaning: Clean the exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Turntable and Ring: The glass turntable and turntable ring can be removed and washed in warm soapy water or in a dishwasher. Ensure they are completely dry before placing them back in the oven.
• Door Seals: Regularly clean the door seals and adjacent parts with a damp cloth to remove any food spills and ensure a proper seal.
• Odor Removal: To remove odors, combine a cup of water with a few tablespoons of lemon juice or vinegar in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat on high for 5 minutes.

Caution: Always unplug the microwave oven from the power outlet before cleaning.
