Cooking appliancesinstalled undw theovenmight,
under some heavy usage conditions, cause temp­eratures high enough to overheat some internal
partsof the microwaveoven.

To prevent overheating from taking place,the vent
fan is designed to automatically turn on at low

speedif excessivetemperatures occur. Should this
happen,the fancannot be manually turned off, but
it will automatically turn off when the internal parts
have cooled, The fan may stay on up to approxi-

mately 30 minutes after the range and microwave

ovencontrols havebeen turned off.
