Q. How can you be sure your microwave oven is turned off when the
exhaust fan is operating?
A. When you are operating the microwave, the sound of the exhaust fan
may be louder than the microwave itself. This could possibly prevent

open.
If for some reason you are not sure the microwave oven is turned off,
turn the exhaust fan off to eliminate the sound and check to see if the
microwave oven is operating, If you are still not satisfied, have the
microwave oven checked.
