AUTOMATIC FAN
FEATURE
Cooking appliances installed
under the oven may, under some
heavy usage conditions, cause
temperatures high enough to
overheat some internal parts of the
microwave oven.
To prevent overheating from taking
place, the exhaust fan is designed
to automatically turn on at a low
speed if excessive temperatures
occur.
Should
this happen, the
fan cannot be manually turned off,
but it will automatically turn
off when the internal parts have
cooled. The fan may stay on up to
approximately 30 minutes after the
range and microwave oven controls
have been turned off.
