Do NOT clean this oven with any product that is labelled as containing
corrosive chemicals. The heating of corrosive chemicals in this oven

removed from the oven. If undercooked, return meat or poultry to the
oven and cook for a few more minutes at the recommended power
level. It is important to ensure that meat and poultry are thoroughly
cooked.
