Things That Are Normal With Your Microwave Oven
Ŷ Moisture on the oven door and walls while cooking. Wipe
the moisture off with a paper towel or soft cloth.
Ŷ Moisture between the oven door panels when cooking
certain foods. Moisture should dissipate shortly after
cooking is finished.
Ŷ Steam or vapor escaping from around the door.
Ŷ Light reflection around door or outer case.
Ŷ Dimming oven light and change in the blower sound at
power levels other than high.
Ŷ Noises while oven is operating.
Ŷ TV/radio interference might be noticed while using the
microwave. Similar to the interference caused by other
small appliances, it does not indicate a problem with the
microwave. Plug the microwave into a different electrical
circuit, move the radio or TV as far away from the
microwave as possible, or check the position and signal
of the TV/radio antenna.
