Cooking times seem too long

 

Radio, TV or cordless phone interference

Is the cooking power set properly? See “Cooking Power” section.

Are large amounts of food being heated?

Larger amounts of food need longer cooking times.

Is the incoming voltage less than specified in “Microwave Oven Safety?”

Have a qualified electrician check the electrical system in the home.

Quartz bulb does not appear to be on

This is not unusual. See “Grill Element” section.

Is the element still working properly?

Place 2 slices of bread on the circular grill rack, place the rack on the turntable and close the door. Program the oven using manual or custom grill – without microwaves – for 4 minutes (see “Grill” section). The bread should toast dark brown. If the bread does not toast, call for service. See “Assistance or Service” section.

Is the oven plugged into the same outlet? Try a different outlet.

Is the radio or TV receiver near the oven?

Move the receiver away from the oven, or adjust the radio or TV antenna.

Are the oven door and sealing surfaces clean? Make sure these areas are clean.

Is the cordless phone frequency 2.4 GHz?

Some 2.4 GHz-based cordless phones and home wireless networks may experience static or noise while the oven is on. Use a corded phone, a different frequency cordless phone or avoid using these items during oven operation.
