Description

This waveguide is the microwave cavity cover that protects and directs microwave energy from the magnetron into the cooking cavity for consistent heating and safe operation. It helps prevent food debris from entering the waveguide channel. What it does:

• Covers and seals the magnetron-to-cavity opening to direct microwave energy
• Helps prevent arcing or sparking caused by food buildup in the waveguide area
• Reduces the chance of localized overheating and uneven heating of food
• Keeps debris and grease out of the waveguide channel for safer operation

What's included:

• One waveguide cover (single piece)

Install notes:

• Disconnect power or unplug the appliance before servicing to avoid shock
• Inspect the cavity and mounting area; clean or remove debris before installing
• Handle carefully; align tabs/clips and secure per the oven's fasteners without forcing
• Do not operate the microwave with a damaged or missing waveguide cover
