pass through the viewing
screen in the door?
holes (or ports) allow only light to pass though. They do not let
microwave energy pass though.
Why does a tone sound
when a pad on the control
panel is touched?
The tone tells you that the setting has been entered.
Can my microwave oven
be damaged if food is
cooked for too long?
Like any other cooking appliance, it is possible to overcook food to
the point that the food creates smoke and even possibly fire, and
damage to the inside of the oven. It is always best to be near the oven
while you are cooking.
When the oven is plugged
into wall outlet for the first
time, it might not work
properly. What is wrong?
The microcomputer controlling your oven may temporarily become
scrambled and fail to function as programmed when you plug in for
the first time or when power resumes after a power interruption.
Unplug the oven from the 120 volt household outlet and then plug it
back in to reset the microcomputer.
Why do I see reflection
around the outlet case?
The light is from the oven light which is located between the oven
cavity and the outer wall of the oven.
What are the various
sounds I hear when the
microwave oven is
operating?
The clicking sound is caused by a mechanical switch turning the
microwave oven’s magnetron ON and OFF.
The heavy hum and clunk is from the change in power the magnetron
draws as it is turned ON and OFF by a mechanical switch. The change
in blower speed is from the change in line voltage caused by the
magnetron being turned ON and OFF.
Food
Question
Answer
What is wrong when baked foods
have a hard, dry, brown spot?
A hard, dry, brown spot indicates overcooking. Shorten the
cooking or reheating time.
Why do eggs sometimes pop?
When baking, frying, or poaching eggs, the yolk may pop
due to steam build-up inside the yolk membrane. To
prevent this, simply pierce the yolk with a wooden
toothpick before cooking.
CAUTION: Never microwave eggs in the shell.
Why are scrambled eggs sometimes a
little dry after cooking?
Eggs will dry out when they are overcooked, even if the
same recipe is used each time. The cooking time may need
to be varied for one of these reasons:
•Eggs vary in size.
•Eggs are at room temperature one time and at refrigerator
temperature another time.
