Before Requesting Service

ALL THESE THINGS ARE NORMAL:
Some radio and TV interference might occur when you cook with the
microwave oven. This interference is similar to the interference caused
by small appliances such as mixers, vacuums, hair dryer, etc. It does
not indicate a problem with your oven.
When cooking with a power other than HIGH, the oven must cycle to
obtain the lower power levels. The oven light will dim and clicking
noises can be heard when the oven cycles.
During cooking, steam and warm air are given off from the food. Most
of the steam and warm air are removed from the oven by the air which
circulates in the oven cavity. However, some steam will condense on
cooler surfaces such as the oven door. This is normal.
Running the oven empty for a short time will not damage the oven.
However, we do not recommend this to be done.
These noises occur as the oven automatically switches from microwave
power to Convection/Grill, to create the Combination setting. This is
normal.
It is essential that your oven is wiped out regularly particularly after
cooking. Any fat and grease that builds up on the roof and walls of the
oven will begin to smoke if not cleaned.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
The oven is not plugged in
securely.
Circuit breaker or fuse is tripped
or blown.
There is a problem with the
