Things That Are Normal With Your Microwave Oven
Consumer Support
■Steam or vapor escaping from around the door.
■Light reflection around door or outer case.
■Dimming oven light and change in the blower sound at power levels other than high.
■Dull thumping sound while oven is operating.
■TV/radio interference might be noticed while using the microwave. Similar to the interference caused by other small appliances, it does not indicate a problem with the microwave. Plug the microwave into a different electrical circuit, move the radio or TV as far away from the microwave as possible, or check the position and signal of the TV/radio antenna.
