Check the Problem Solver in the back of this guide. It
lists causes of minor operating problems that you can
correct yourself.
All these things are normal with your
microwave oven.
• Steam or vapor escaping from around the door.
• Light reflection around door or outer case.
• Dimming oven light and change in blower sound
may occur while operating at power levels other
than high.
• Dull thumping sound while oven is operating.
• Some TV-radio interference might be noticed
while using your microwave oven. It’s similar to
the interference caused by other small appliances
and does not indicate a problem with your
microwave. If you notice this interference, check
that the microwave oven is on a different electrical
circuit, relocate the radio or TV as far away from
the microwave as possible, or check the position
and signal of the receiving antenna.

front face and the door or allow soil or cleaner
residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
