How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Ensure your hands are dry when handling plugs and outlets.

  • Clear the code: Press STOP/CANCEL or follow the user manual to clear PF. Then reset the clock.
  • Check plug and outlet: Make sure the plug is fully inserted and the outlet is not loose. Try another heavy-load appliance to confirm outlet stability.
  • Avoid shared high-load circuits: Do not run the microwave on the same circuit as high-power devices (heaters, irons) that can cause voltage dips.
  • Monitor frequency: If PF appears frequently without known outages, have a qualified electrician check the household wiring and voltage.
