FAQs

Troubleshooting
Microwave does not start when timer is set.
Ensure the door is firmly closed until the latch clicks, as the safety interlock prevents operation if the door is ajar.
Food is heating unevenly.
Ensure the glass turntable is correctly placed on the center roller guide and that the food is not blocking the rotation.
Unit makes an unusual noise during operation.
Check that the glass turntable is seated properly and not hitting the sides, or that the roller guide is free of debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Placement is key for the safe operation of your microwave. Ensure it is placed on a flat, stable surface with adequate clearance on all sides—at least 10cm of space behind and on the sides for proper ventilation.
To keep your unit in top condition, clean the interior walls and the glass turntable after every use to prevent food buildup. Always unplug the microwave before cleaning. Use a damp cloth with mild soap for the interior and wipe the exterior with a non-abrasive cleaner. Never submerge the electrical cord in water.
