Precautions to Avoid Possible Exposure to Excessive Microwave Energy
Do not attempt to operate this oven with the door open since open-door operation can result in harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to interfere or tamper with the safety interlocks.
Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there is no damage to the:
1. Door (bent),
2. Hinges and latches (broken or loosened),
3. Door seals and sealing surfaces.
The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly qualied service personnel.
If moving or transporting microwave, keep microwave well protected as rough treatment can cause damage.
Before You Call for Service
If the oven fails to operate:
Check to ensure that the oven is plugged in securely to the power outlet. If it is not, remove the plug from the outlet, wait 10 seconds and plug it in again securely, and switch on.
Check for a blown circuit fuse or a tripped main circuit breaker. If these seem to be operating properly, test the outlet with another appliance.
Check to ensure that the control panel is programmed correctly and the timer is set.
Check to ensure that the door is securely closed, engaging the door safety lock system, otherwise the microwave energy will not ow into the oven.
IF NONE OF THE ABOVE RECTIFY THE SITUATION THEN CONTACT A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN. DO NOT TRY TO ADJUST OR REPAIR THE OVEN YOURSELF.
