Maintenance Tips

• Clean the Interior Regularly – Wipe down the interior of the microwave with a soft, damp cloth after each use to remove spills and food residue. For tougher stains, use a mild cleaner or a mixture of water and baking soda.
• Clean the Grease Filter – The grease filter traps grease and smoke. Clean it every 1-2 months by removing it and washing with warm, soapy water. If the filter is very greasy, use a degreasing agent.
• Clean the Charcoal Filter – If the microwave has a charcoal filter for odor removal, replace it every 6-12 months depending on usage. Regularly check for any signs of damage or clogging.
• Wipe the Exterior – Clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth to remove fingerprints, dirt, and food splatters. Use a stainless steel cleaner if needed for the stainless steel finish.
• Inspect the Microwave Door – Ensure the microwave door seals properly to avoid energy loss and uneven cooking. Wipe the door seal with a soft, damp cloth to keep it free from food particles.
• Keep the Vents Clear – Check the microwave vents regularly to ensure they are not blocked by grease, dust, or other debris. Use a vacuum with a hose attachment or a soft brush to clean the vents if needed.
• Clean the Turntable – Remove the turntable and wash it with warm, soapy water to keep it free from grease and food residue.
• Check the Microwave's Operation – Ensure that the microwave is operating efficiently by monitoring cooking times and consistency. If you notice any issues, consult the user manual or contact customer support.
• Keep the Airflow Unobstructed – Make sure that the microwave’s air vents and surrounding areas are clear to allow proper ventilation. This helps prevent overheating and improves performance.
• Follow Manufacturer Guidelines – Refer to the user manual for specific maintenance instructions, cleaning methods, and troubleshooting to ensure longevity and performance
