Difficulty cleaning Electrolux High Speed Oven

I have an Electrolux High Speed Oven. It works great and I love it but for one thing. I did not realize that it would be so difficult to clean and did not clean it right away after each use. I have baked chicken in it several times and I now have carmelized, sticky gunk (from butter and chicken grease--not sure how else to describe it) all over the oven. It looks horrible and does not respond well to a variety of cleaning products. The oven's brochure says not to use oven cleaner. Your suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Dear Hiltonjug: Thank you for your suggestion. The oven is not self-cleaning. Ammonia is about the only thing I haven't tried, but I have a bottle in the basement, so I'll give it a go.

Most that say no oven cleaner have a self clean. If your does not. Take ammonia and wipe inside down and set a bowl of it inside over night. This will help a lot. One of my grandmothers tricks. It works great.
Please rate solution.

Replacing relay switch in electrolux high speed microwave oven

Sometimes a door latch or magnet closure is a problem. If the door fails to make proper contact when closed, the oven will not start. If the oven goes on and off, there is a disconnect and in some cases the rotating glass dish inside vibrates and causes a disconnect also.

How do I clean the stainless steel interior of my electrolux icon microwave

Hello - Interior cleaning after convection, mix or broil cooking:


Spatters may occur because of moisture and grease. Wash immediately after use with hot, soapy water. Rinse and polish dry. Harder to remove spatters may occur if oven is not thoroughly cleaned or if there is long time/high temperature cooking. If so, you may wish to purchase an oven cleaner pad with liquid cleaner within it-not a soap filled steel pad-for use on stainlessor porcelain surfaces. Follow manufacturer's directions carefully and be especially cautious not to get any of the liquid cleaner in the perforations on the wall or ceiling or any door surfaces. Rinse thoroughly and polish dry. After cleaning the interior thoroughly, residual grease may be removed from the interior ducts and heater by simply operating the oven on 450 F for 20 minutes without food. Ventilate the room if necessary.


Interior cleaning after microwave cooking:


Cleaning is easy because no heat is generated to the interior surfaces; therefore, there is no baking and setting of spills or spattering. To clean the interior surfaces, wipe with a soft cloth and warm water. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANERS OR SCOURING PADS. For heavier soil, use baking soda or a mild soap; rinse thoroughly with hot water. NEVER SPRAY OVEN CLEANERS DIRECTLY ONTO ANY PART OF THE CONVECTION MICROWAVE OVEN.

Sharp carousel II microwave/convection oven

The question is... Do you want to put money on a 18year MW, or put it towards a new one? I must admit I love the SHARP Combo MW Convection ovens. I own two. One is almost 25years old. The mechanical Timer Type, but they work great and I can maintain them with 30years ef exrerience. I am now retired.
It does sound like the Magnetronhas broken down, however it could be other things in the Secondary (High Voltage Side). The High Voltage Side is made up of the Secondary HV side of the High Voltage Transformer, A High Voltage Diode, a High Voltage Capacitor, and the Magnetron. The High Voltage Side is DANGEROUS, and CAUTION should be taken to protect yourself against EXTREME HIGH VOLTAGE. unplug from power and DISCHARGE High Voltage Capaciton to frame GROUND before touching anything!!!!
