Care of your Microwave Oven
Turn the oven off and remove the power plug from the wall socket before cleaning.
If steam accumulates
inside or around the
outside of the oven
door, wipe with a soft
cloth. This may occur
when the microwave
oven is operated under
high humidity conditions
and in no way indicates
malfunction of the unit.
Notes:
1. When using the Grill, Oven or Combination mode, some foods may inevitably splatter grease on to the
oven walls. If the oven is not cleaned, occasionally it may start to "smoke" during use. These marks will be more
difficult to clean later.
2. After Grill, Oven or Combination cooking, the ceiling and walls of the oven should be cleaned with a soft
cloth squeezed in soapy water. Particular care should be taken to keep the window area clean particularly
after cooking by Grill, Combination. Stubborn spots inside the oven can be removed by using a small
amount of microwave oven cleaner sprayed onto a soft damp cloth. Wipe onto problem spots, leave for
recommended time and then wipe off. This method can not be used to clean the oven door.
DO NOT SPRAY DIRECTLY INSIDE THE OVEN.
A steam cleaner is not to be used for cleaning.
3. Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surface that could
adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.
4. When it becomes necessary to replace the oven light, please consult the service center specified by
Panasonic.
The outside oven surfaces should be
cleaned with a damp cloth. To prevent
damage to the operating parts inside the
oven, water should not be allowed to seep
into the ventilation openings.
Always clean the flat table
after cooling down with a
mild detergent and wipe
to dry.
Keep the inside of the oven
clean. When food splatters
or spilled liquids adhere
to oven walls, wipe with a
damp cloth. Mild detergent
may be used if the oven gets
very dirty. The use of harsh
detergent or abrasives is not
recommended.
Do not allow the Control
Panel to become wet. Clean
with a soft, damp cloth. Do
not use detergents, abrasives
or spray on cleaners on the
Control Panel. When cleaning
the Control Panel, leave oven
door open to prevent oven
from accidentally turning
on. After cleaning tap Stop/
Cancel pad to clear display
window.
For some models:
The Control Panel
is covered with a
removable protective
film to prevent scratches
during shipping. Small
bubbles may appear
under this film, so if this
is the case, remove by
applying masking or
clear tape to an exposed
corner and pull gently.
Clean the upper heater
after it is completely
cold. Wipe with a
soft and damp cloth
carefully.
Drip Tray
1. Always keep the drip tray clean.
2. Clean and wipe dry after use.
3. After cleaning, re-connect the drip
tray to the plastic feet.
4. DO NOT USE A DISHWASHER
TO CLEAN THE DRIP TRAY.
Grill Tray
After using, clean it with a mild
detergent or dishwasher.
