Steam Cleaning - Wall Oven

Possible Solution

This automatic cleaning cycle will help you to clean the microwave oven cavity and to remove unpleasant odors.

Before Starting the Cycle:

  1. Put 250 mL water into a container (see the recommendations in the below section “Tips and suggestions”).
  2. Place the container directly in the middle of the cavity.

To Start the Cycle:

  1. Press the Steam Clean button; the cleaning cycle duration will be visible on the display.
  2. Press the Start button to start the function.
  3. When the cycle has finished, open the microwave, and remove the container. 
  4. Use a soft cloth or paper towel to wipe down the interior of the microwave. 

Try repeating the cycle for hard-to-remove stains or build-up. A mixture of mild soap and water with a sponge, can also be used. 

Tips and Suggestions:

  1. For a better cleaning result, it is recommended that you use a container with a diameter of 17-20 cm and a height of less than 6.5 cm.
  2. A container of light plastic material suitable for the microwave is recommended.
  3. As the container will be hot after the cleaning cycle is completed, it is recommended that you use a heat-resistant glove when removing it from the microwave.
  4. Add lemon juice or vinegar to the water for a better cleaning effect and removal of unpleasant odors.
