Problem

Potential reason

Potential solution

If the 

microwave 

doesn’t work

1. Microwave is not 

plugged in

Make sure the plug is plugged in securely into the 
mains and the plug is switched on. If it is not, remove 
the plug from the socket, wait 10 seconds and plug it in 
again securely.

2. Plug is not working

The plug socket that the microwave is plugged into 
may have become faulty. Plug the microwave into 
another known good plug socket, ensure that the 
socket is turned on and check if the microwave now 
works.

3. The plug has a blown 

fuse or the mains circuit 

has a blown fuse/tripped 

fuse

Check the plug for a blown circuit fuse or a tripped 
main circuit breaker. If these seem to be working 
properly, test the socket with another appliance. 

4. Microwave has 
developed a fault

Contact customer services to talk through the problem 
to see if any solution for the fault can be found. If not 
and the product is within its warranty period, then the 
microwave should be returned to the retailer it was 
purchased from for a replacement or refund.

If the 

microwave 

power will not 

work 

1. Door is not closed

Make sure the door is securely closed. Otherwise, the 
microwave will not engage or operate.

2. The power has not 

been set/the time dial 

has not been turned

Set the microwave power by pressing the 

‘Microwave/Grill/Combi.’ button. Select

the time by 

turning the dial and pressing ‘

Start

’ to confirm.

Not heating

Magnetron not working

The component that produces the microwaves is called 
a magnetron, if food is not being heated or is 'luke' 
warm then it is likely this component has developed a 
fault.
If the microwave is within its warranty period, please 
contact customer services  for further advice or take 
the microwave back to the retailer it was purchased 
from for a refund or replacement.
