Tips for preventing arc burn marks inside the cavity of your Roper microwave hood combo

Clean the cavity often. For stubborn residue, place 1 or 2 cups of water in a microwave-safe cup. Bring that to a boil for 2 to 3 minutes. The steam will soften the mess so that it’s easier to clean out. Keep rack supports clean or they can start to melt.

Cover food when cooking or reheating to avoid splatter.

Don't store the metal rack in the microwave and only place the rack in the microwave when it will be used for multi-level cooking. When using the rack, insert it correctly so it doesn't touch the sides or back of the microwave cavity and it’s mounted correctly in all of the rack supports. Never place the rack on the floor of the microwave. Never use the metal rack when cooking popcorn. As the bag expands, it could push the rack out of position and create arc or burn marks.

Roper microwave hood combo safety precautions

• Never attempt to repair internal microwave components inside the microwave oven cabinet. The high-voltage capacitor inside the microwave retains a lethal electrical charge even when the microwave hood combo power cord is unplugged from the wall outlet. Have a service technician repair any internal microwave component failure
• Do not operate the microwave with the door open. Interlock switches should prevent the microwave from starting with the door open.
• Don't use the microwave if you see door damage. A damaged door can allow microwave radiation to leak out of the cavity. Have a service technician repair the microwave door and test the door for radiation leakage.
• Clean food residue out of the microwave cavity often.
