Grease filters: Grease filters are on the underside of microwave 
oven. Clean monthly. Slide the filter away from the tab area, 
and drop out the filter. To reinstall, place end of the filter into 
the opening opposite the tab area, swing up the other end, 
and slide it toward the tab area.

■

Charcoal filter: The charcoal filter is behind the vent grille at the 
top front of the microwave oven. The charcoal filter cannot be 
cleaned, and should be replaced about every 6 months, or as 
prompted by filter status indicator. Remove two screws on the 
vent grille, tilt the grille forward, lift it out, and remove filter. To 
reinstall, place the filter into its slotted area – wire mesh side 
up, replace vent grille, and secure with screws.

■

Cooktop light: The cooktop light bulb is located on the 
underside of the microwave oven, and is replaceable. Remove 
bulb cover screws, and open the bulb cover. Replace bulb, 
close bulb cover, and secure with screws.

■

Cavity light: The cavity light bulb is located behind the vent 
grille at the top front of the microwave oven, under the bulb 
cover, and is replaceable. Remove two screws on the vent 
grille, tilt the grille forward, and lift it out. Remove bulb cover 
screw, open bulb cover and replace bulb. Close bulb cover, 
and secure with screw. Replace vent grille, and secure with

If a household fuse has blown or a circuit breaker has tripped, 
replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem 
continues, call an electrician.

■

Try to heat 1 cup (250 mL) of cold water for 2 minutes at 100% 
cooking power. If water does not heat, try the steps in the 
bullets below. If microwave oven still does not operate, call 
for service.

■

Firmly close door. On some models, if a packaging spacer is 
attached to inside of the door, remove it, then firmly close door.

If a message about the door appears in the display, the door 
has been closed for 5 minutes or more without the microwave 
oven being started. This occurs to avoid unintended starting of 
the microwave oven. Open and close the door, then start 
the cycle.

■

Make sure control is set properly. Make sure Control Lock is off. 
Make sure Demo Mode (on some models) is off.

■

Soil buildup on cavity walls, microwave inlet cover, cooking 
rack supports, and area where the door touches the frame can 
cause arcing. See “General Cleaning” in “Microwave Oven 
Care” section.

■

This is normal and depends on motor rotation at the beginning 
of the cycle.

■

A flashing “:” or “PF” means there has been a power failure. 
Reset the clock.

■

A letter followed by a number is an error indicator. Call for 
assistance.

■

This is normal. The microwave oven’s cooling fan (on some 
models), which is separate from the vent fan, automatically 
comes on during microwave oven operation to cool the 
microwave oven. It may also automatically come on and cycle 
on and off to cool the microwave oven’s controls while the 
cooktop below is being used.

■

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

■

Make sure the microwave oven door and sealing surfaces are 
clean.

■

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