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, TV, Wi-Fi, cordless telephone, baby
monitor, blue tooth or other wireless equipment
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 only accept one
stage cooking (excluding Delay Start), and will not
accept an 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
fl
ow pattern in the oven. There
are no microwaves in the air. The oven vents should
never be blocked during cooking.
A:
The oven has programmed DEMO MODE. This mode
is designed for retail store display. Deactivate this
mode by pressing Micro Power Pad once and Stop/
Cancel Pad four 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:
The noises occur as the oven automatically switches
from MICROWAVE power to CONVECTION/GRILL to
create the combination setting. This is normal.
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 220°C for 20
minutes. This will burn off any food, residue or oil
which may cause an odour and/or smoking.
A:
Yes. Press the Convection Temperature Selector 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.
