Panasonic NNC994S Microwave/conv.oven - Page 24

Before Requesting Service ALL THESE THINGS ARE NORMAL: The oven causes interference with my TV. Some radio and TV interference might occur when you cook with the microwave oven. This interference is similar to the interference caused by small appliances such as mixers, vacuums, hair dryer, etc. It does not indicate a problem with your oven. The oven lights dim. When cooking with a power other than P10 - P3, the oven must cycle to obtain the lower power levels. The oven light will dim and clicking noises can be heard when the oven cycles. Steam accumulates on the oven door and warm air comes from the oven vents. During cooking, steam and warm air are given off from the food. Most of the steam and warm air are removed from the oven by the air which circulates in the oven cavity. However, some steam will condense on cooler surfaces such as the oven door. This is normal. I accidentally ran my microwave oven without any food in it. Running the oven empty for a short time will not damage the oven. However, we do not recommend this to be done. The oven has an odor and generates smoke when using the Bake, Combination and Broil function. It is essential that your oven is wiped out regularly particularly after cooking. Any fat and grease that builds up on the roof and walls of the oven will begin to smoke if not cleaned. PROBLEM Oven will not turn on. Oven will not start cooking.
