Possible Causes
Basket not fully inserted, Door/basket switch not engaged, Invalid program selection sequence, Stuck keypad button
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the unit if beeping persists continuously.
Steps to resolve repeated beeping:
- Reinsert basket: Remove and firmly reinsert the basket until it clicks into place.
- Clear keypad: Wipe the control panel to ensure no moisture or debris is causing a stuck button.
- Reset sequence: Unplug for 5 minutes, then plug in and follow the user manual's exact steps for selecting temperature and time before pressing start.
- Check basket switch: If beeping continues and the unit thinks the basket is out, inspect and test the basket safety microswitch and replace if faulty.
Tip: Observe any icons on the display indicating an open basket or door; these can guide you to the interlock issue.
