All these things are normal
with your microwave oven.
• Steam or vapor escaping from
around the door.
• Light reflection around door or
outer case.
• Dimming oven light and change
in blower sound may occur while
operating at power levels other
than high.
• Dull thumping sound while oven
is operating.

might be noticed while using
your microwave oven. It’s
similar to the interference
caused by other small
appliances and does not
indicate a problem with
your oven.

the door open since open-door operation can

front face and the door or allow soil or cleaner
residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
