Problem
Microwave oven
interferes with TV
reception.
Dim oven light.
Steam
accumulates on
the door and/or
hot air comes out
of the vents.
Oven does not
operate.
Glass turntable
makes a noise
when the
microwave oven
is operating.
Important!
If none of the above rectify the situation, then contact a Fisher & Paykel authorised technician.
Do not try to adjust or repair the oven yourself.
Possible causes
There are a number of causes
to interference.
The oven light may become
dim during low power
microwave cooking.
This is normal. Steam may come
out of food as it is cooked. Most
steam will be released through
the vents but some steam may
accumulate on cool surfaces
(eg. the oven door and internal
surfaces).
This will occur when the
microwave oven is operated
under conditions of high humidity
and cooler climatic conditions.
Power cord is not plugged
in securely.
Fuse blows or circuit breaker
has tripped.
Control panel is not programmed
correctly or the timer is not set.
Door is not closed securely.
The roller rest and/or oven
bottom are dirty.
What to do
Refer to 'Radio interference' on page 6 for
ways to eliminate or reduce interference.
Check whether low power cooking
is selected.
If steam accumulates inside or around
the outside of the door and internal
surfaces, wipe with a soft cloth.
Check to ensure that the oven is plugged
in securely. If it is not, remove the plug
from the outlet, wait 10 seconds and
plug it in again securely.
Check for a blown circuit fuse or a
tripped main circuit breaker. If these
seem to be operating properly, test the
outlet with another appliance.
If the fuse or the circuit breaker needs
replacing, contact your Fisher & Paykel
Authorised Repairer.
Check to ensure that the control panel is
programmed correctly and the timer is set.
Check to ensure that the door is securely
closed engaging the door safety lock
system. Otherwise, the microwave
energy will not flow into the oven.
Refer to "Cleaning and care" on page 19
to clean the interior components.
