• For stubborn stains, place a bowl of water with lemon slices inside and microwave for 2-3 minutes. The steam will loosen the residue, making it easier to wipe away.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners or metal scouring pads, as they can damage the ceramic interior.

• Avoid spraying cleaners directly onto the control panel. Apply cleaner to a cloth first.
