Possible Causes
Dirty humidity sensor, heavy grease on cavity walls, incorrect cookware or covering, failing humidity sensor, control calibration issue
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Allow the unit to cool before cleaning.
- Clean interior: Thoroughly clean the cavity, especially near the humidity sensor port, with mild detergent and water. Remove all grease and residue.
- Use proper cookware: Follow Monogram guidelines for sensor cooking (microwave-safe, no tight plastic wrap that traps all steam).
- Reset control: Disconnect power for 5 minutes to reset sensor calibration.
- Sensor replacement: If performance remains poor, the humidity sensor may be drifting out of spec and should be replaced.
