Nothing works.
The microwave oven will
not run.

CAUSE

and the “Electrical connection”
section on Page 7.)
• A household fuse has blown or a circuit breaker has tripped.

enough.
The display shows a time
counting down but the oven
is not cooking.
PROBLEM
CAUSE
• The electric supply to your home or wall outlets is low or lower than normal. Your
electric company can tell you if the line voltage is low. Your electrician or service
technician can tell you if the outlet voltage is low.
• The cook power is not at the recommended setting.
Check the table on Page 16.
• The oven door is not closed completely.
• You have set the controls as a kitchen timer. Touch STOP/CLEAR pad and
