Care and cleaning

Care and cleaning
With careful care and cleaning your microwave oven will
retain its looks and remain good order. We will explain
here how you should care for and clean your appliance
correctly.
• Risk of electric shock! Penetrating moisture may
cause an electric shock. Do not use any high-pressure
cleaners or steam cleaners.
• Risk of burns! Never clean the appliance immediately
after switching off. Let the appliance cool down.
• Risk of serious damage to health! Microwave energy
may escape if the cooking compartment door or the
door seal is damaged. Never use the appliance if the
cooking compartment door or the door seal is dama-
ged. Contact the after-sales service.
Notes
• Slight differences in colour on the front of the appli-
ance are caused by the use of different materials, such
as glass, plastic and metal.
• Shadows on the door panel which look like streaks, are
caused by reflections made by the oven light.
• Unpleasant odours, e.g. after fish has been prepared,
can be removed very easily. Add a few drops of lemon
juice to a cup of water. Heat the water for 1 to 2 minu-
tes 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. Do not use
• sharp or abrasive cleaning agents,
• metal or glass scrapers to clean the glass in the appli-
ance door.
• metal or glass scrapers to clean the door seal,
• 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.
