How do I activate the child lock?

Can I use metal utensils in the microwave?

How do I clean the crisp plate and turntable?
The Glass turntable, turntable support, and Crisp handle are dishwasher safe. The Crisp plate should be hand-washed with mild detergent and a soft cloth; do not use steel wool or immerse in water while hot. Let it cool before cleaning.
Why is my microwave not starting?
Check that the turntable and turntable support are in place, the door is properly closed, and the plug is securely inserted. Also ensure the fuse is not blown and the oven has adequate ventilation. If the problem persists, wait 10 minutes and try again.

What maintenance is required for this microwave?
Regular cleaning is essential. Wipe the interior with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Remove and clean the turntable and support regularly. For odors, boil a cup of water with lemon juice. If grilling rarely, run the grill for 10 minutes monthly to burn off spills.

FOLLOW THE PROCEDURE for "cook & reheat with microwaves" and choose power level 160 W when defrosting manually.

CHECK AND INSPECT THE FOOD REGULARLY. Experience will give you the times needed for various amounts.

FROZEN FOOD IN PLASTIC BAGS, plastic films or cardboard packages can be placed directly in the oven as long as the package has no metal parts (e.g. metal twist ties).

THE SHAPE OF THE PACKAGE alters the defrosting time. Shallow packets defrost more quickly than a deep block.

SEPARATE PIECES as they begin to defrost. Individual slices defrost more easily.

SHIELD AREAS OF FOOD with small pieces of aluminum foil if they start to become warm (e.g. chicken legs and wing tips).

WHIRLPOOL VT265WH - MANUAL DEFROST - 2

Do not use steam cleaning appliances when cleaning your microwave oven.

THE GRILL ELEMENT does not need cleaning since the intense heat will burn off any splashes, but the ceiling beneath it may need regular cleaning. This should be done with a soft and damp cloth with mild detergent.

If the Grill is not used regularly, it should be run for 10 minutes a month to burn off any splashes, in order to reduce the risk of fire.
