INTERFERENCE NOTE

Microwave ovens generate radio frequency energy during operation and if not installed properly may cause interference to radio and television reception. You can determine if this unit is causing interference by turning it on and off while the interference is occurring. If interference occurs, it may be corrected by one or more of the following measures:

•clean door and seal surfaces of the oven.

•reorient the television or radio receiving antenna.

•relocate the oven with respect to the television or radio receiver.

•plug the oven into a different outlet so that it, and the television or radio receiver, are on different circuits.

If the interference persists, you may want to consult an experienced radio/ television technician for additional suggestions.
