TROUBLESHOOTING

When the oven is working, air circulates within the cavity.
The door does not form an airtight seal so air may escape from the
door.
The oven cavity will normally be colder than the food being cooked,
and so steam produced when cooking will condense on the colder
surface.
The amount of steam produced depends on the water content of
the food being cooked. Some foods, such as potatoes have a high
moisture content. Condensation trapped in the door glass should
clear after a few hours.
Arcing will occur when a metallic object comes into close proximity
to the oven cavity during cooking. This may possibly roughen the
surface of the cavity, but would not otherwise damage the oven.
Ensure all "eyes" are removed from the potatoes and that they have
been pierced, place directly onto the turntable or in a heat resistant
flan dish or similar.
Check the door is closed properly.
Ensure correct power level has been selected.
The microwave energy pulses ON and OFF during cooking/
defrosting.
The cabinet may become warm to the touch - keep children away.
Your oven may be set in Demo Mode. To cancel Demo Mode, unplug
the oven from the socket and replug.
