Things That Are Normal With Your Microwave Oven

the door.
[] Light reflection around door or outer case.
[] Dimming oven light and change in
the blower sound at power levels other
than high.
[] Dullthumping sound while oven is operating.
TV/radio interference might be noticed while
using the microwave. Similarto
the interference caused by other small
appliances, it does not indicate a problem with
the microwave. Plug the microwave into a
different electrical circuit, move the radio or TV
as far away from the microwave as possible,
or check the position and signal of the TV/radio
antenna.
