Use the following procedure to checkout the
operation of the microwave oven.
1. Fill a 1-cup (260 ml) glass measuring cup
with warm water (between 90˚F/32˚C and
100˚F/38˚C).
2. Open the oven door, place the container
of water into the oven, and close the door.
3. Press the COOK keypad, and set the
cooking time for 4-minutes.
4. Press the START/ENTER keypad. The
oven cavity light should come on, the
cooking cycle should begin, and the timer
should count down in “seconds” from 4:00.
5. After approximately 2-

/2 to 3-minutes,
the water should start to boil. If more than
3-minutes is required, it could mean that

volts), or it is not functioning properly and
may need to be checked by a qualified
technician.
