MICROWAVE OVEN CARE
General Cleaning
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and 
the oven is cool. Always follow label instructions on cleaning 
products.
Soap, water and a soft cloth or sponge are suggested first unless 
otherwise noted.
GREASE FILTERS
Do not use ammonia or corrosive cleaning agents such as lye-
based oven cleaners.
Hot water and mild detergent:
Soak filters, then scrub and swish to remove embedded dirt 
and grease. Rinse well and shake to dry.
Dishwasher:
Wash separately, not with dirty dishes, because food can be 
trapped in the filters.
OVEN CAVITY
Do not use soap-filled scouring pads, abrasive cleaners, steel-
wool pads, gritty washcloths or some recycled paper towels. 
Damage may occur.
The area where the oven door and frame touch when closed 
should be kept clean.
Average soil
Mild, nonabrasive soaps and detergents:
Rinse with clean water and dry with soft, lint-free cloth.
Heavy soil
Mild, nonabrasive soaps and detergents:
Heat 1 cup (250 mL) of water for 2 to 5 minutes in oven. 
Steam will soften soil. Rinse with clean water and dry with 
soft, lint-free cloth.
Odors
Lemon juice or vinegar:
Heat 1 cup (250 mL) of water with 1 tbsp (15 mL) of either 
lemon juice or vinegar for 2 to 5 minutes in oven.
OVEN DOOR EXTERIOR
Glass cleaner and paper towels or nonabrasive plastic 
scrubbing pad:
Apply glass cleaner to soft cloth or sponge, not directly on 
panel.
TURNTABLE
Replace turntable immediately after cleaning. Do not operate the 
microwave oven without the turntable in place.

Replacing Filters
The grease filters should be removed and cleaned at least once a 
month. Do not operate the oven without the filters in place. The 
charcoal filter cannot be washed and should be replaced every 6 
to 12 months. See “Assistance or Service” to reorder filters. See 
“General Cleaning” for cleaning instructions.
To Remove:
1. Unplug oven or disconnect power.
2. Remove each of the grease filters by pushing the back of the 
filter up, grasping the tab, and sliding the filter to the back. 
Pull tab down until the filter drops out.
3. Remove each charcoal filter by pushing the filter toward the 
center of the oven until it is clear of the narrow outer lip. 
Swing the filter down and slide it out.
To Replace:
1. Replace each charcoal filter by positioning it above the wide 
lip near the center of the oven. Swing the filter up into 
position and slide it toward the narrow lip. The filter will now 
be held in position between the lips.
2. Replace each grease filter by inserting the end without the 
tab into the frame. Swing other side up and slide into 
position.
3. Plug in oven or reconnect power.
