A:When the oven does not turn on, check the following:
1.Is the oven plugged in securely? Remove the plug from the outlet, wait 10 seconds and reinsert.
2.Check the circuit breaker and the fuse. Reset the circuit breaker or replace the fuse if it is tripped or blown.
3.If the circuit breaker or fuse is all right, plug another appliance into the outlet. If the other appliance works, there proba- bly is a problem with the oven. If the other appliance does not work, there probably is a problem with the outlet. If it seems that there is a problem with the oven, contact an authorized Service Center.
A:Some radio and TV interference might occur when you cook with the microwave oven. This interference is similar to the interfer- ence caused by small appliances such as mixers, vacuums, blow dryers, etc. It does not indicate a problem with your oven.
A:The oven is designed not to accept an incorrect program. For example, the oven will not accept a fourth stage, and will not accept Auto Weight Program after Delay Start.
A:The heat given off from the cooking food warms the air in the oven cavity. This warmed air is carried out of the oven by the air flow pattern in the oven. There are no microwaves in the air. The oven vents should never be blocked during cooking.
A:The noises occur as the oven automatically switches from microwave power to CON- VECTION/GRILL to create the combination setting. This is normal.
A:Yes. Press Convection Pad and the oven temperature will appear in the display win- dow for 2 seconds.
A:Yes. You can cook your favourite recipe just as you would in a conventional oven. Check instructions in the Panasonic Cookbook for suggested oven temperatures and cooking times.
