Performance problems often result from little
things you can find and fix without tools of any
kind.
If nothing operates:
l
Is the power supply cord plugged into a live
circuit with the proper voltage? (See Installation
Instructions.)
l
Have you checked your home’s main fuses or
circuit breaker box?
l
Have you checked the electric company for a
power failure?
If the microwave oven will not run:
l
Is the oven being used as a timer?
l
Is the door firmly closed and latched?
l
Did you touch START?
l
Did you follow the directions exactly?
l
Did you touch CANCEL to cancel previous
programming?
If the microwave cooking times seem too
long:
l
Is the electric supply to your home or wall
outlets low or lower than normal? Your electric
company can tell you if the line voltage is low.
Your electrician or service technician can tell
you if the outlet voltage is low.
l
Is the Cook Power at the recommended
setting?
l
Are you allowing for more time when cooking
more food at one time?
If the Display shows a time counting down but
the oven is not cooking:
l
Is the oven door closed completely?
l
Have you set the controls as a minute timer?
l
Is the oven in standing time between QUICK
DEFROST and COOK I? (See pages 17-l 9.)
If you do not hear the Programming Tone:
l
Is the command correct?
l
Has the tone been cancelled (See page 11.)
If the fan seems to be running slower than
usual:
l
Has the oven been stored in a cold area? The
fan will run slower until the oven warms up to
normal room temperature.
If there has been a power interruption, the
Display will show “88:88”. Reset the clock.
