How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Use only microwave-safe containers and follow Beko's usage guidelines.
- 1. Verify turntable rotation: Ensure the tray rotates smoothly during cooking. Fix any turntable issues first.
- 2. Use appropriate cookware: Avoid very thick or irregular containers that block microwaves. Use shallow, microwave-safe dishes and stir food halfway through cooking.
- 3. Clean cavity and waveguide cover: Remove any grease or food buildup that could affect microwave distribution.
- 4. Magnetron performance: If heating has gradually become weaker and uneven, the magnetron may be aging and require replacement by a technician.
