MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
CARE AND CLEANING
- Microwave energy may escape if the cooking compartment drawer, side rails, or drawer guide rollers are damaged, which can be a serious health risk. Never use the appliance if any portion of the drawer is damaged. If you see damage, contact ZLINE at 1-614-777-5004.
WARNING: NEVER use high-pressure cleaners or steam cleaners. This increases the chance of moisture penetrating inside the unit’s mechanical and electrical systems, which may cause an electric shock.
- Slight differences in color on the front of the appliance are caused by the use of different materials, such as glass, plastic, and metal. Shadows on the door panel that look like streaks are caused by reflections made by the oven light.
- Unpleasant odors, e.g. after fish has been prepared, can be removed easily. Add a few drops of lemon juice to a cup of water. Place a wooden spoon into the container to prevent superheating. Heat the water for 1 to 2 minutes at maximum microwave power.
CLEANING AGENTS
- To ensure that the different surfaces are not damaged by using the wrong cleaning agent, observe the information in the table on page 20. Do not use:
- Sharp or abrasive cleaning agents
- Metal or glass scrapers to clean the glass in the drawer
- Metal or glass scrapers to clean the area where the microwave drawer and frame touch when closed
- Hard scouring pads and sponges
- Cleaning agents with high concentrations of alcohol
- Wash new sponge cloths thoroughly before use.
- Allow all surfaces to dry thoroughly before using the appliance again.
CLEANING GUIDE
Appliance front and exterior| Hot soapy water: Clean with a dish cloth and dry with a soft cloth. Do not use glass cleaners or metal or glass scrapers.
Appliance front with stainless steel
| Hot soapy water: Clean with a dish cloth and dry with a soft cloth. Remove flecks of limescale, grease, starch, and albumin (e.g. egg white) immediately. Corrosion can form under such residues. Special stainless steel cleaning agents can be obtained at appliance stores and other vendors. Do not use glass cleaners
or metal or glass scrapers for cleaning.
Cooking compartment and microwave interior
| Hot soapy water: Clean with a dish cloth and dry with a soft cloth. Remove flecks of limescale, grease, starch and albumin (e.g. egg white) immediately. Corrosion can form under such residues. Do not use glass cleaners or metal or glass scrapers.
Control panel
| Damp cloth: Ensure that no water seeps into the appliance
interior. Dry with a soft cloth.
Drawer glass
| Kitchen-safe glass cleaner: Clean with a dish cloth and dry with
a soft cloth. Do not use a glass scraper.
Drawer guides, rails and rollers
| Soft dry cloth: Remove crumbs and food debris and wipe with a soft dry cloth so the door may open and close smoothly.
Pay special attention to the white rollers that help guide the microwave drawer. Open the drawer fully to thoroughly clean
these rollers to avoid arcing.
WARNING
- NEVER clean the appliance immediately after switching off, as you risk being burned. Let the appliance cool down before cleaning.
- Disconnect power before cleaning or leave the door open to inactivate the microwave during cleaning.
CLEANING GUIDE
IMPORTANT:
It’s recommended to thoroughly clean the interior of your microwave drawer at least once a week. If the appliance is not cleaned often, food and grease can build up on the ceramic base plate and in hard-to-reach locations along the white drawer guide rollers and the sliding side rails — as outlined in the images below — which may cause arcing.
