Microwave does not heat evenly; some areas of food are very hot while others remain cold.

Safety: Use oven gloves when handling hot containers.

Steps to improve heating uniformity:

• 1. Verify turntable operation: Ensure the glass tray rotates smoothly during cooking. If not, see turntable motor/support troubleshooting.
• 2. Use appropriate cookware: Use round, microwave-safe dishes and avoid very large or irregularly shaped containers that block rotation.
• 3. Stir and rotate: Pause cooking halfway to stir food and rotate the dish manually for more even heating.
• 4. Avoid overloading: Do not overcrowd the cavity; leave space around dishes for microwaves to circulate.

If the turntable works and cookware is appropriate but heating remains extremely uneven, an internal distribution component may be faulty and should be checked by a technician.
