Q: When the oven is plugged into a wall outlet for the first time, it does not work properly. What's wrong?
A: The microcomputer used in the oven control may temporarily become scrambled and fail to function as
programmed. Unplug the oven from the wall outlet and then plug it back in. The microcomputer will then
reset for proper functioning.
Q: Why is there noise coming from the oven when using a lower power level?
A: When cooking with power other than 100%, the oven automatically switches on and off to obtain the
correct power output. The clicking noise can be heard when the oven switches on and off. This is normal
Q: Why is there steam coming out of the air exhaust vent?
A: Steam is produced during cooking. The microwave oven has been made to vent this steam.
Q: What is wrong when the oven light will not glow?
A: There may be several reasons why the oven light will not glow. The light bulb has burned out or START
has not been pressed.
Q: Why do eggs sometimes burst?
A: The egg yolk may burst because of steam build-up inside the membrane. Pierce the membrane with a
toothpick before cooking it.
Never microwave eggs in the the shell as they may explode.
Q: How is boiling over avoided?
A: Use a larger utensil than usual for cooking. If you open the oven door or touch STOP/CLEAR, the food
will stop boiling.
