QUERY
ANSWER
Draught circulates
around the door.
When the oven is working, air circulates within the cavity.
The door does not form an airtight seal so air may escape from the door.
Condensation forms in
the oven, and may drip
from the door.
The oven cavity will normally be colder than the food being cooked, and so
steam produced when cooking will condense on the colder surface.
The amount of steam produced depends on the water content of the food
being cooked. Some foods, such as potatoes have a high moisture content.
Condensation trapped in the door glass should clear after a few hours.
Flashing or arcing from
within the cavity when
cooking.
Arcing will occur when a metallic object comes into close proximity to
the oven cavity during cooking. This may possibly roughen the surface of
the cavity, but would not otherwise damage the oven.
Arcing potatoes.
Ensure all “eyes” are removed from the potatoes and that they have been
pierced, place directly onto the turntable or in a heat resistant flan dish or
similar.
The display is lit but the
control panel will not
work when pressed.
Check the door is closed properly.
Oven cooks too slowly.
Ensure correct power level has been selected.
Oven makes a noise.
The microwave energy pulses ON and OFF during cooking/defrosting.
Outer cabinet is hot.
The cabinet may become warm to the touch - keep children away.
