Question about GE Microwave Ovens

1 Answer

I have a new Advantium Oven, and while I had guest here, someone heated a tomato based food in the microwave without covering the dish. Food particles have popped into the steel webbed covered light system. How do I clean this area.

If a plastic scrubber won't clean it, then when it's dry, you may be able to place duct tape or packing tape over it, press and rub it firmly, and remove the tape. It may remove much of the debris.

A can of compressed air (in the computer section of Wal-Mart, for example) may blast out the bits.

If it resists all efforts, it may be necessary to take to the outer cover off, peel off the plastic light cover sheet, do the cleaning, then install a new light cover sheet.

I need instructions for 10in. microwave browner
Only place I've found is here: CorningWare Browner Instructions

As these dishes were designed by Corning for a 650 watt over, you can recalculate preheat and cooking times for your oven with the following formula:

650/(your oven's wattage) x (listed preheat time or cook time)

For example, for a Corning MW-9 dish, they list 4 minutes maximum preheat time. I have a 1,580 watt oven. So 650/1580 = .41 x 4 minutes = 1.64 minutes and about a minute and a half preheat. (MAX).

How to change nightlight bulb on ge advantium 120 oven
Advantium - Interior Light Operation While Microwaving

The Advantium 240 oven interior (cavity) light will illuminate anytime the door is open. However, due to the dark tint on the oven door, there is not a light on while cooking since the food would not be visible using the interior lamp.
Food may be viewed during a microwave cycle by pressing the Microwave/Oven Light pad.

One of the Upper Level Speedcook lamps will come on for 5 seconds. The Microwave/Oven Light pad can be pressed up to 5 times during a microwave cooking cycle. The limit of 5 times is to prevent excessive heat on microwave cookware from the Speedcook lamp.

The Advantium 120 oven cavity is illuminated anytime the door is opened and while the unit is in the microwave only mode. As a result it will not have the Microwave/Oven Light pad.

That I can't answer! But I would replace your microwave/convection oven, it is completely unsafe and a major fire hazard, and I would get in touch with GE and lodge a formal complaint about their product, if there is a flaw in the design it needs to be brought to the table to warn others that have same item so they are not affected in the same way.

Microwave runs but does not heat food
Most likely the Magnatron has dies. Too expensive to repair, cheaper to buy a new Microwave and have warranty and a reliable appliance. fitting new Mags don't always last long either

Is it safe to heat our food without any cover in the microwave?
Yes it is perfectly safe to heat food without a cover. It is the microwave that cooks the food from the inside out and it does not leave any radiant behind. I hope this helps. Don't forget to rate my answer.
