A:
When the oven does not turn on, check the following:
1. Is the oven plugged in securely? Remove the plug
from the outlet, wait 10 seconds and reinsert.
2. Check the circuit breaker and the fuse. Reset the
circuit breaker or replace the fuse if it is tripped or
blown.
3. If the circuit breaker or fuse is all right, plug
another appliance into the outlet. If the other
appliance works, there probably is a problem with
the oven. If the other appliance does not work,
there probably is a problem with the outlet.
If it seems that there is a problem with the oven,
contact an authorized Service Center.
A:
Some radio and TV interference might occur when
you cook with the microwave oven. This interference
is similar to the interference caused by small
appliances such as mixers, vacuums, blow dryers,
etc. It does not indicate a problem with your oven.
A:
The oven is designed not to accept an incorrect
program. For example, the oven will not accept a
fourth stage, and will not accept Auto Weight
Program after Delay Start.
A:
The heat given off from the cooking food warms the
air in the oven cavity. This warmed air is carried out
of the oven by the air flow pattern in the oven. There
are no microwaves in the air. The oven vents should
never be blocked during cooking.
A:
The noises occur as the oven automatically switches
from microwave power to CONVECTION/GRILL to
create the combination setting. This is normal.
A:
Yes. Press Convection Pad and the oven
temperature will appear in the display window for 2
seconds.
A:
Yes. You can cook your favourite recipe just as you
would in a conventional oven. Check instructions in
the Panasonic Cookbook for suggested oven
temperatures and cooking times.
A:
The oven has programmed DEMO MODE. This
mode is designed for retail store display. Deactivate
this mode by pressing Clock Pad three times.
A:
Only when you are using CONVECTION/GRILL
cooking mode. The metal in some thermometers may
cause arcing in your oven and should not be used on
MICROWAVE and COMBINATION cooking modes.
A:
After repeated use, it is recommended to clean the
oven and then run the oven without food, glass tray,
and roller ring on CONVECTION 250°C for 20 mins.
This will burn off any food, residue or oil which may
cause an odour and/or smoking.
