If you see arcing, press the CLEAR/OFFpad and correct the problem.
ARCING
Microwaved water and other liquids do not always bubble when they reach the boiling point.
They can actually get super heated and not bubble at all.
Super heated liquid will bubble up out of the
cup when it is moved or when something like
a spoon or tea bag is put into it.
To prevent this from happening and causing
injury, do not heat any liquid for more than 2
minutes per cup.
After heating, let the cup stand in the
microwave for 30 seconds before moving it or
putting anything into it.
Spontaneous boiling
Under certain special circumstances, liquids
may start to boil during or shortly after removal
from the microwave oven.
To prevent burns from splashing liquid, we
recommend the following before removing
the container from the oven:
■Allow the container to stand in the oven for
30 to 40 seconds after the oven has shut off.
■Do not boil liquids in narrow-necked
containers such as soft drink bottles, wine
flasks and especially narrow-necked coffee
cups. Even if the container is opened,
excessive steam can build up and cause it
to burst or overflow.
Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the
oven. Arcing is caused by:
■Metal or foil touching the side of the oven.
■Foil not molded to food (upturned edges
act like antennas).
■Metal, such as twist-ties, poultry pins, or
gold-rimmed dishes, in the microwave.
■Recycled paper towels containing small
metal pieces being used in the microwave.
SUPER HEATED WATER
■Steam or vapor escaping from around
the door.
■Light reflection around the door or the
outer case.
■Dimming of the oven light and change
in the blower sound may occur while
operating at power levels other than high.
■The microwave fan may operate with both
ovens off. It is cooling the control and will
turn itself off.
■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 oven.
■A dull thumping sound while the oven
is operating.
ALL THESE THINGS ARE NORMAL WITH YOUR MICROWAVE
