700 watts

Please go to this web address and read the service manual on how to put on the spring:

Hi Nadia,

There's little to be found on the internet for this model oven now. There should be a name plate / manufacturer's sticker either inside the door - on the jamb; or on the rear near the power cord. If you see a rating given as "120VAC / 1200W" this would indicate INPUT wattage, which would be higher than the amount used for cooking. A typical 1200W rated microwave might have 800 - 1000 Watts of cooking power. If there are 2 ratings for wattage like 120V / 1200W / 850W; the 850 Watts is the amount of cooking power. The cooking power - or wattage - is always lower than the total wattage. If you see a rating somewhere that indicates 900W cooking power, then that would be the cooking power of the oven.

If you're not satisfied or unsure about the information you're finding on the oven - or it is missing - you might want to contact Magic Chef Customer Service Department at (888) 775-0202. They should be able to help you - or pint you in the right direction.

Good luck!

Most lamps are replaced from a door on the side of the oven

Typicaly, remove the cover to gt access to the lamp.

go to www.fitness.manualsonline.com and download give your model, etc

God bless you

You can probably find the manual for a similar model that's close enough here.

If you could get it to reset by unplugging it I would suspect a problem with the main timer board. A blown fuse or bad connection wont reset by unplugging it. You would need to find a parts dealer who carris Magic Chef parts and give them your model number and ask for price and availability on the main PCB the printed circuit board
( timer board)

It doesn't look like a valid Magic Chef model number.

The word "model" will appear beside it on the model / serial tag on the unit.

Also, you can check this page for recent Magic Chef models.

The output power is 1000W and that's near the high end for a consumer microwave. Hope this helps.
