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).
■
Use foil only as recommended in
this manual.
■
Metal cookware or the wire oven
rack used during either speedcook or
microwave cooking (except for the pans
provided with the oven).
■
Metal, such as twist-ties, poultry pins,
or gold-rimmed dishes, in the oven.
■
Recycled paper towels containing small
metal pieces being used in the oven.
ARCING
Arcing can occur during both speedcooking and microwave cooking. If you see arcing,
press the CLEAR/OFF pad and correct the problem.
