oven cavity, door, oven cabinet and accessories will become very hot. Before cleaning,
make sure they are completely cool.

The outside of your oven can be cleaned easily with mild soap and water. Make sure the soap
is wiped off with a moist cloth, and dry the exterior with a soft towel.

Open the door before cleaning to de-activate the oven controls. Care should be taken when
cleaning the oven control. Using a cloth dampened with water only, gently wipe the panel
until it becomes clean. Avoid using excessive amounts of water. Do not use any sort of
chemical or abrasive cleaner.

1. For cleaning, wipe any splatters or spills with a soft damp cloth or sponge after each use
while the oven is still warm. For heavier spills, use a mild soap and wipe several times with
a damp cloth until all residues are removed. Do not remove the waveguide cover.
2. Make sure that mild soap or water does not penetrate the small vents in the walls which
may cause damage to the oven.
3. Do not use spray type cleaners on the oven interior.
4. Heat up your oven regularly by using the convection and grill, refer to "Heating without
food" on page 17 - 18. Remaining food or fat splashed can cause smoke or bad smell.

To remove all trace of dirt, regularly clean both sides of the door, the door seals and sealing
surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers
to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering
of the glass.

cavity or accessories, it may overheat, cause arcing, smoke or even catch fire when next using
the oven.
