QUESTION & ANSWERS
Q What’s wrong when the oven light will not
glow?
A There may be several reasons why the oven light
will not glow.
Light bulb has blown.
Door is not closed.
Q Does microwave energy pass through the
viewing screen in the door?
A No. The holes, or ports, are made to allow light
to pass; they do not let microwave energy
through.
Q Why does the beep tone sound when a pad
on the Control Panel is touched?
A The beep tone sounds to assure that the setting
is being properly entered.
Q Will the microwave oven be damaged if it
operates empty?
A Yes. Never run it empty or without the glass
tray.
Q Why do eggs sometimes pop?
A When baking, frying, or poaching eggs, the yolk
may pop due to steam build up inside the yolk
membrane. To prevent this, simply pierce the
yolk before cooking. Never microwave eggs in
the shell.
Q Why is standing time recommended after
microwave cooking is over?
A After microwave cooking is finished, food keeps
on cooking during standing time. This standing
time finishes cooking evenly throughout the food.
The amount of standing time depends on the
density of the food.
Q Is it possible to pop corn in a microwave
oven?
A Yes, if using one of the two methods described
below:
1 Popcorn-popping utensils designed specifically
for microwave cooking.
2 Prepackaged commercial microwave popcorn
that contains specific times and power outputs
needed for an acceptable final product.
FOLLOW EXACT DIRECTIONS GIVEN BY
EACH MANUFACTURER FOR THEIR
POPCORN PRODUCT. DO NOT LEAVE THE
OVEN UNATTENDED WHILE THE CORN IS
BEING POPPED. IF CORN FAILS TO POP
AFTER THE SUGGESTED TIMES,
DISCONTINUE COOKING. OVERCOOKING
COULD RESULT IN THE CORN CATCHING
FIRE.
CAUTION
NEVER USE A BROWN PAPER BAG FOR
POPPING CORN. NEVER ATTEMPT TO POP
LEFTOVER KERNELS.
Q Why doesn’t my oven always cook as fast as
the cooking guide says?
A Check your cooking guide again to make sure
you’ve followed directions correctly, and to see
what might cause variations in cooking time.
Cooking guide times and heat settings are
suggestions, chosen to help prevent
overcooking, the most common problem in
getting used to a microwave oven. Variations in
the size, shape, weight and dimensions of the
food require longer cooking time. Use your own
judgement along with the cooking guide
suggestions to test food condition, just as you
would do with a conventional cooker.
