Microwave heats unevenly; some areas of food are very hot while others remain cold.

Steps:

• Verify turntable operation: Ensure the turntable rotates smoothly. Repair turntable issues if present.
• Use proper cookware: Use round, microwave-safe dishes. Avoid very tall or irregularly shaped containers.
• Stir and rotate: Pause cooking to stir or rearrange food for more even heating.
• Load size: Avoid overfilling the cavity; large dense items may require lower power and longer time.

Note: If uneven heating worsens over time even with correct use, the magnetron may be weakening and require professional diagnosis.
