How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug before inspecting the cord.

- 1. Check plug and socket: Ensure the plug is fully inserted and the socket is not loose.
- 2. Try another outlet: Plug the Salter microwave into a different circuit to rule out supply issues.

- 4. If issue persists: The control PCB may have a failing power supply section or memory circuit and should be replaced.
