Questions and answers
Microwave has power but does not cook
The High Pointe EC942K6BE microwave may have power but not cook due to the following reasons:
1. Door Not Properly Closed – The microwave stops heating if the door is not fully closed. Ensure the door is securely shut.
2. Interrupted Cooking – If a cooking cycle was interrupted by opening the door, you must close the door and press "START +30 Sec" to resume cooking.
3. Power Level Setting – If the power level is set too low (e.g., 0%), the microwave may not heat. Adjust the power level as needed.
4. Turntable Function – If the turntable is off, ensure it is correctly set for manual operation.
5. Defective Components – If none of the above resolves the issue, a faulty internal component (such as the magnetron or control board) may require service by qualified personnel.
