•

Dimming oven light and
change in the blower
sound at power levels
other than high.

•

Dull thumping sound while

The vent fan operating
while the microwave is
operating. The vent fan will
not go off nor can it be
turned off until the

TV-radio interference
might be noticed while
using the microwave.
Similar to the interference
caused by other small
appliances, it does not
indicate a problem with the
microwave. Plug the
microwave into a different
electrical circuit, move the
radio or TV as far away
from the microwave as
possible or check the
position and signal of 
the TV/radio antenna.
