personal injury or property
damage.
NOTE:
Turn the microwave’s vent fan on
whenever you use the oven range cooktop
below it.The fan captures smoke, steam, and
odors and also prevents the heat from the
cooktop from damaging microwave components.
If the microwave is cooking, the vent fan turns on
automatically if the sensors detect too much heat
from the cooktop. This is normal, and is designed
to prevent microwave component damage.
