5. Care and Maintenance

Regular cleaning helps maintain the performance and longevity of your microwave oven.

• Cleaning the Interior:
  • Always unplug the appliance before cleaning.
  • Wipe the interior surfaces, including the oven cavity walls and door seal, with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent.
  • For stubborn food splatters, place a bowl of water with lemon juice inside and heat on high for 2-3 minutes. The steam will loosen the residue, making it easier to wipe clean.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or metal scouring pads, as these can scratch the surfaces.
• Cleaning the Exterior:
  • Wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth.
  • Ensure no water enters the ventilation openings.
