Cleaning is the only maintenance normally required. It must be carried out with the microwave oven disconnected. Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surface that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation. Do not use metal scouring pads, abrasive cleansers, steel-wool pads, gritty washcloths, etc. which can damage the control panel, and the interior and exterior oven surfaces. Use a cloth with a mild detergent or a paper towel with spray glass cleaner. Apply spray glass cleaner to a paper towel. Do not spray directly on the oven. At regular intervals, especially if spill overs have occurred, remove the turntable, the turntable support and wipe the base of the oven clean. This oven is designed to operate with the turntable in place. Do not operate the microwave oven when the turntable has been removed for cleaning. Use a soft and damp cloth with mild detergent to clean the interior surfaces, front and rear of the door and the door opening. Do not allow grease or food particles to build up around the door. For stubborn stains, boil a cup of water in the oven for 2 or 3 minutes. Steam will soften the marks.
