Description
Microwave cleaning with the PKFACILITY involves unplugging the unit and using steam from a water and vinegar or lemon mixture to loosen dried food and grime, which is then wiped away with a damp cloth. After removing and cleaning the turntable with soapy water, the inside and outside of the microwave are wiped clean. Stubborn spots can be tackled with a baking soda paste, while a bowl of baking soda left overnight can deodorize the unit. Steps to Clean Your Microwave Unplug the Microwave: Always unplug the microwave before you begin cleaning for safety. Prepare the Steam Solution: Fill a microwave-safe bowl with water and add a few tablespoons of white vinegar or lemon juice. Create Steam: Microwave the solution on high for 3-5 minutes, allowing the steam to build up. Let it Sit: Keep the microwave door closed for several minutes to allow the steam to work, loosening baked-on food. Clean Removable Parts: Carefully remove the turntable and clean it with warm, soapy water. Wipe the Interior: Use a damp sponge or microfiber cloth to wipe down the interior surfaces, removing the loosened grime and food residue. Tackle Stubborn Stains: For tough spots, make a paste of baking soda and water and gently scrub with a cloth. Clean the Door and Exterior: Wipe the microwave door, handle, and exterior with a damp, soft cloth and a mild cleaner. Deodorize (Optional): If odors persist, place a bowl of baking soda inside the microwave overnight to absorb them. Reassemble and Dry: Place the cleaned, dry turntable back inside the microwave. Important Reminders Avoid Harsh Cleaners: Do not use abrasive cleaners, rough sponges, or harsh chemicals like oven cleaners, ammonia, or bleach, as they can damage the microwave's interior. Clean Regularly: Wipe up spills and messes as they happen to prevent food from drying and becoming difficult to remove.
