If you need service or assistance, we suggest you follow these steps:

1. Before calling for

assistance...

Performance problems often result from little things you can find and fix yourself without tools of any kind.

If nothing operates:

l Is the power supply cord plugged into a live circuit with the proper voltage? [See Installation Instructions.)

l Have you checked your home’s main fuse or circuit breaker box?

. Have you checked the electric company for a power failure?

If the microwave oven will not run: l Is the oven being used as a timer? l If the Temperature Probe is being used, is it plugged tightly into its

sot ket?

l Is the door firmly closed and latched?

l Did you touch START?

l Did you follow the directions exactly?

If the microwave cooking times seem too long:

Is the electric supply to your home or wall outlets low or lower than normal? Your electric company

can tell you if the line voltage is low. Your electrician or service techni- cian can tell you if the outlet voltage is low.

Is the Cook Power at the recom- mended setting?

Are you allowing for more

time when cooking more food at one time?

If the Display shows a time counting down but the oven is not cooking:

lIs the Minute Timer in use? l Is the oven door closed

completely?

l ISthe oven in standing time between QUICK DEFROST and COOK CYCLE l? (See page 23.)

If you do not hear a programming tone:

l Is the command correct?

l Has the tone been cancelled? (See page 8.)

If the fan seems to be running slower than usual:

l Has the oven been stored in a cold area? The fan will run slower until the oven warms up to normal room temperature.

If there has been a power interrup- tion, the Display will show 88:88. Reset the Clock (see page 9).

If the microwave oven turns off too soon or not soon enough when

using the Temperature Probe: Is at least % of the probe in the food?

Is the probe tip in the center of the food?

Is the probe touching bone or fat? Have you allowed roasts to stand for a few minutes after cooking?

Is the probe plugged tightly into its sot ket?

Is Cook Power set correctly? Is the probe temperature set correctly?
