CLEANING AND CARE
EXTERIOR
The outside surface is precoated metal and glass. Clean the 
outside with mild soap and water; rinse and dry with a soft 
cloth. Do not use any type of household or abrasive cleaner.
STAINLESS STEEL SURFACE   
The exterior should be wiped often with a soft damp cloth and 
polished with a soft dry cloth to maintain its beauty. There 
are also a variety of products designed especially for cleaning 
and shining the stainless exterior of the oven. We recommend 
that the cleaner be applied to a soft cloth and then carefully 
used on the stainless exterior rather than sprayed directly on 
to it. Follow package directions carefully.
FRONT SIDE OF THE DRAWER
Wipe the window on both sides with a soft damp cloth to 
remove any spills or spatters. Metal parts will be easier to 
maintain if wiped frequently with a soft damp cloth. Avoid 
the use of spray and other harsh cleaners as they may stain, 
streak or dull the drawer surface.
TOUCH CONTROL PANEL
If desired, the touch pads may be deactivated before cleaning. 
See the Control Lock information on page 18 of this manual. 
Wipe the panel with a cloth dampened slightly with water 
only. Dry with a soft cloth. Do not scrub or use any sort of 
chemical cleaners. Close drawer and follow directions on 
page 18 for turning Control Lock off. Touch STOP/CLEAR.
INTERIOR 
Before cleaning the Microwave Drawer, touch and hold the 
STOP/CLEAR button for 3 seconds to lock the control 
pad and the automatic door mechanism. The drawer can 
be locked in either the open or closed position. The display 
will show 
LOCK ON
. This will prevent the drawer from 
accidentally opening or closing during cleaning. After 
cleaning, touch and hold the STOP/CLEAR button for  
3 seconds to turn the lock off. The display will show 
LOCK
OFF
.
Cleaning is easy because no heat is generated to the interior 
surfaces; therefore, there is no baking and setting of spills or 
spattering. To clean the interior surfaces, including drawer 
sealing surfaces, wipe with a soft damp cloth. DO NOT USE 
ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANERS OR SCOURING 
PADS. For heavier soil, use mild soap; wipe clean with a soft 
damp cloth. Do not use any chemical oven cleaners.
MICROWAVE DRAWER GUIDES   
Remove the food crumbs from the Microwave Drawer guides. 
Wipe with a soft dry cloth in order to keep the Microwave 
Drawer opening and closing smoothly. 
WAVEGUIDE COVER   
ATTENTION
 The waveguide cover, located on the inside 
top of the Microwave Drawer area, is made from mica, so 
it requires special care. Keep the waveguide cover clean to 
assure good microwave performance. Carefully wipe with 
a soft damp cloth any food spatters from the surface of 
the cover immediately after they occur.  Built-up splashes 
may overheat and cause smoke or possibly catch re. Do 
not remove the waveguide cover.
ODOR REMOVAL
Occasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the Microwave 
Drawer. To remove odor, combine 1 cup water, grated peel 
and juice of one lemon and several whole cloves in a 2-cup 
glass microwave-safe measuring cup. Boil for several minutes 
using 100% power. Leave in the Microwave Drawer until 
water cools. Wipe interior with a soft cloth.
