TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE
The microwave will not switch on?
• Check that the appliance has been connected to the mains supply correctly.
• Check that the fuse in the moulded plug has not blown.
• Check that the fuses in your fuse box have not blown.
• If fuses blow on a regular basis, then we would recommend that you consult with a qualified
electrician.
• Check that there has not been a power cut.
The microwave will not start cooking?
• Check that the door is properly shut.
• Check that the door seal and surrounding area are clean.
The turntable is not turning?
• Check that the rotating base is connected to the drive motor correctly.
• Check that the ovenware is not larger than the rotating plate.
• Check that the food you are cooking does not extend beyond the rotating plate.
• Check that there is nothing underneath the rotating base that is preventing it from turning.
The microwave does not switch off?
• Isolate the microwave from your mains supply and then contact Lamona Customer Care .
• The interior light bulb is not working.
• Call the Lamona Customer Care Department. The interior light bulb can only be replaced by a
trained service technician.
My food is not cooking properly?
• Check that the power level and cooking time that you have set, is appropriate for the food that you
are cooking.
• If you are cooking a double amount of food, then you will normally need to almost double the
cooking time.
• If the food that you have placed in the cavity is colder than normal, then the power level and
cooking time may need to be increased.
I’m getting condensation in my oven?
• Steam and condensation are a natural by product of cooking in a microwave.
• Do not leave food in the oven to cool after it has been cooked and the oven has been switched
off.
• Use a covered container, where practical, when cooking to reduce the amount of condensation
that forms.
• You should wipe over any condensation that has formed, as soon as the food has stopped cooking
