Page 50: Problem Solving
PROBLEM SOLVING WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, always unplug the microwave before performing maintenance or trouble shooting checks. The microwave oven may cause interference to your radio, TV or similar equipment. If this happens, you can get rid of the interference by moving the radio, TV or equipment as far away from your microwave oven as possible. - Page 51 PROBLEM SOLVING Potential solution Problem Potential Reason Spillages or splashes can burn and catch fire, all food that is put into the microwave should be appropriately covered. All spillages or splashes must be cleaned, and all areas of microwave cleaned after each use. Burnt on food debris in the microwave, on the waveguide and the behind the waveguide can cause the microwave to 'spark'.
- Page 52 PROBLEM SOLVING Problem Potential Reason Potential solution By the very nature of how a microwave works, it ‘excites’ the water molecules in the food it is heating, causing them to move about and generate heat from within the food. Often when the food heats up it reaches the point where steam is released.
- Page 53 PROBLEM SOLVING Problem Potential Reason Potential solution Cooling vents allow the heat and steam to escape from the microwave. These cannot be covered as it can cause excessive water to settle inside the microwave or the microwave to overheat. Over heating Cooling vents covered The instructions in the instruction manual must be followed or the warranty will be void.
