Steam or vapor escaping from around the door.
Light reflection around the door or the outer
case.
Dimming of the oven light and change in the
blower sound may occur while operating at
power levels other than high.
The microwave fan may operate with both
ovens off. It is cooling the control and will turn
itself off.
Some TV-radio interference might be noticed
while using your microwave oven. It's similar
to the interference caused by other small
appliances and does not indicate a problem
with your oven.
A dull thumping sound while the oven is
operating.
MICROWAVE TERMSAND DEFINITIONS
Arcing
Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the oven.
Arcing is caused by:
metal or foil touching the side of the oven.
foil that is not molded to food (upturned edges act
like antennas).
metal such as twist-ties, poultry pins, gold-rimmed
dishes.
recycled paper towels containing small metal
pieces.
Covering
Covers hold in moisture, allow for more even heating
and reduce cooking time. Venting plastic wrap or
covering with wax paper allows excess steam to
escape.
Shielding
In a regular oven, you shield chicken breasts or baked
foods to prevent overbrowning. When microwaving,
you use small strips of foil to shield thin parts, such
as the tips of wings and legs on poultry, which would
cook before larger parts.
Standing Time
When you cook with regular ovens,foods such as
roasts or cakes are allowed to stand to finish cooking
or to set.Standing time is especially important in
microwave cooking. Note that a microwaved cake is
not placed on a cooling rack.
Venting
After covering a dish with plastic wrap, you vent the
plastic wrap by turning back one corner so excess
steam can escape.
PACEMAKERS
Most pacemakers are shielded from interference
from electronic products, including microwaves.
However,patients with pacemakers may wish to
consult their physicians if they have concerns.
