Microwave - Precaution (Operating Empty)

Do not operate a Microwave Oven while empty. This can cause damage to the Microwave Oven or create the possibility of a fire.

Operating a Microwave Oven That Is Empty

If, by accident, the Microwave should run empty for a minimal amount of time, approximately 5 minutes or less, no harm is done. Do try to avoid operating the Microwave empty at any time. If running the Microwave empty should occur, it may overheat and shut down. Allow the appliance to cool down and reset itself. Try using it again normally to make sure it is heating.

Repair Service Recommended

If the Microwave does not work properly, service will be required. For service, please schedule a repair appointment with GE Appliances Factory Service.
