How to keep a Samsung Microwave clean
The microwave is used more than other kitchen appliances in some households. Your microwave may need to be cleaned after extended use or if food is not covered when heating. Remember that it is easier to clean up after a mess, and if you clean the microwave on a regular basis, that sticky film will not form. Here's to having a clean microwave.
Warning: Never use an abrasive cleaner or solvent in the microwave, such as alcohol, benzene, ammonia, or paint thinner. This will damage the finish and cause rust to form. When cleaning the exterior, take care not to get liquid into the microwave's vents.
Once a month, clean the roller rings, and once a week, wash the turntable. Clean fresh stains as soon as possible to avoid them sticking. However, use caution when handling the turntable tray immediately after cooking because it may still be hot.
The turntable is dishwasher safe, but if you don't have one, you can remove it and carefully wash it in warm, sudsy water. Before putting it back in the microwave, make sure it's completely dry.
Your microwave may appear spotless at first glance, but even with the best care, grime can accumulate over time. A quick wipe with a soft damp cloth and warm, soapy water once a week should suffice.
- Clean the control panel
Wipe the control panel with a damp cloth and dry it thoroughly.
- Clean under your microwave oven
During your weekly check, make sure to clean grease and dust from the bottom of your microwave using a solution of warm water and detergent.
- Clean the door and door seals
Always ensure that the door seals are clean and that no grime or residue gets on them, since this could prevent the microwave's door from closing properly. Wash the glass door with very mild soap and water. Be sure to use a soft cloth to avoid scratching.
Notes:
- After cleaning, always rinse all residual cleaner off the surface and dry it thoroughly.
- Do not spray water or cleaner directly on the surface; instead apply a small amount of cleaner on the rag and then clean the surface.
- Always clean up spills and stains as quickly as possible using the simplest method to get the job done. Start by wiping with a damp cloth in the direction of the polish lines and follow up by drying the area to prevent water spots. If that does not work, try a weak solution of dish washing liquid, household ammonia, or a glass cleaner on a soft cleaning cloth. Again, rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not, however, mix any of those cleaning agents together.
- Never use steel wool or bleach, or any product containing chlorine, which can damage the protective layer and the metal finish.
- Rinse and dry the surface thoroughly to remove all traces of the cleaning agent and prevent spotting from trace minerals in the water.
- Glass cleaner can leave streaks on the stainless steel finish.
- Harsher chemicals (benzene, thinner, bleach, alcohol, acetone, ammonia) can erode the protective coating that is applied to the surface and could cause an electric shock.
