Interference Note

Microwave ovens .generate radio frequency energy dur- ing 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 inter- ference occurs, it may be corrected by one or more of the following measures:

clean door and sealing surfaces of the oven;

reorient the television or radio receiving antenna;

relocate the oven with respect to the television or radio receiver, and/or

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.

Automatic Fan Protection Feature ........................

Cooking appliances installed under the oven may, under some heavy usage conditions, cause temperatures high

enough to overheat some internal parts of the microwave oven.

To prevent overheating from taking place, the exhaust fan is designed to automatically turn on at a low speed if excessive temperatures occur. Should this happen, the

fan cannot be manually turned off, but it will automati- cally turn off when the internal parts have cooled. The

fan may stay on for up to an hour after the range and microwave oven controls have been turned off.

Microwaving Tips .......................................................

Make sure all cookware used in your microwave oven is suitable for microwaving. Most glass cook-

ing dishes, measuring cups, custard cups, pottery or china dinnerware, which does not have metallic trim or glaze with metallic sheen, can be used.
