1. ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES

To avoid possible exposure to microwave energy
leakage, adjust the door latches and interlock switches,
using the following procedure.

ADJUST THE LATCH AND SWITCH CLOSING

(3) Loosen the two screws holding the plastic latch board as

shown.

ONLY AUTHORIZED SERVICE PERSONNEL
SHOULD MAKE THIS ADJUSTMENT.

The Interlock Monitor and Primary Interlock Switch acts
as the final safety switch protecting the user from
microwave energy. The terminals between “COM” and
“NC” of the Interlock Monitor must close when the door
is opened. After adjusting the Interlock Monitor Switch,
make sure that it is correctly connected. See Figures 1-a
and 1-b throughout this procedure.

CHECK THE DOOR LATCH AND SWITCH
CLOSING.

NOTE: The outer cover of the microwave oven is

removed.

(1) Set the microwave oven on its side so that you can see

the latch board and the switches, as shown in
Figure 1-a.

(2) Close the door tightly and check gaps A and B to be

sure they are no more than 1/64” (0.5 mm). See Figure
1-b for close-up view of gaps A and B (door latches).
If all gaps are less than 1/64” (0.5 mm), adjustment of
the latch board may not be necessary. Go to Steps 5
and 6 to check the sequence of the switches.

NOTE: To correct sequence of the Primary Interlock

Switch, Secondary Interlock Switch and the
Interlock Monitor Switch is very important.

If any gap is larger than 1/64” (0.5 mm), you will need to
adjust the latch board-U, L. Go to step 3 and follow all
steps in order.

(4) With the oven door closed tightly, move the latch board

upward toward the top of the oven and/or away from the
door latch until the gaps are less than 1/64” (0.5 mm).

Hold the latch board tightly in this position until you
check the sequence of the switches in steps 5 and 6.

TEST THE LATCH AND SWITCH SEQUENCE

(5) Open the oven door slowly. Watch the door latch, the

Primary Switch. Release Rod and Lever on the switches
to make sure they are zero to the body of the switches
in the following sequence:

- Primary Interlock Switch

- Secondary Interlock Switch

- Interlock Monitor Switch

Adjust the latch board until the switches operate in this
sequence. See Steps 3 and 4.

(6) Close the oven door slowly and be sure it is tightly

closed. Watch the three switches to make sure they are
zero to the body of the switches in the following
sequence:

- Interlock Monitor Switch

- Primary Interlock Switch

- Secondary Interlock Switch

NOTE: The Interlock Monitor Switch is an added safety

check on the Primary and Secondary Interlock
Switches. If the Primary and Secondary Interlock
Switches allow the oven to operate with the door
open, the Monitor Switch will blow the fuse.

(7) When you achieve the proper sequence of switches in

Steps 5 and 6, tighten the latch board screws at that
point.

TEST THE MICROWAVE ENERGY LEAKAGE

(8) Using a survey meter, make sure the microwave energy

is below 5 mW/cm2.sq.

8. PROCEDURE FOR MEASURING MICROWAVE
ENERGY LEAKAGE

A. CAUTIONS

(1) Be sure to check a microwave emission prior to servicing

the oven if the oven is operative prior to servicing.

(2) The service personnel should inform the manufacturer,

importer, or assembler of any certified oven unit found to
have a microwave emission level in excess of
5mW/cm2.sq. and should repair any unit found to have
excessive emission levels at no cost to the owner and
should ascertain the cause of the excessive leakage.
The service personnel should instruct the owner not to
use the unit until the oven has been brought into
compliance.

(3) If the oven operates with the door open, the service

personnel should;

- Tell the user not to operate the oven

- Contact the manufacturer and CDRH (Center for
Devices and Radiological Health) immediately.
NOTE: Address on CDRH
Office of Compliance (HFZ-312)
Center for Devices and Radiological Health
1390 Piccard Drive
Rockville, Maryland 20850

(4) The service personnel should check all surface and vent

openings for microwave emission testing.

(5) Check for microwave energy leakage after every

servicing. The power density of the microwave radiation
leakage emitted by the microwave oven should not
exceed 1mW/cm2.sq. And always start measuring of
an unknown field to assure safety for operating
personnel from radiation leakage.
NOTE: The standard is 5mW/cm2.sq. while in the
customer’s home. 1mW/cm2.sq. stated here is
manufacturer’s own voluntary standard for units in
customer’s home.

EQUIPMENT

• Electromagnetic energy leakage monitor (NARDA 8100B,
HOLADAY HI 1501)

• 600cc glass beaker

• Glass thermometer 100°C

B. MEASURING MICROWAVE ENERGY LEAKAGE

(1) Pour 275±15cc of 20±5°C water in a beaker which is

graduated to 600 cc, and place the beaker in the center
of the oven.

(2) Set the energy leakage monitor to 2450 MHz and use it

following the manufacturer’s recommended test
procedure to assure correct result.

(3) When measuring the leakage, always use the 2 inch

(5cm) spacer supplied with the probe.
(4) Operate the oven at its maximum output.
(5) Measure the microwave radiation using and

electromagnetic radiation monitor by holding the probe

perpendicular to the surface being measured. (See

Figure 6)

Move probe along shaded area.

Probe scanning speed
less than 2.5 cm/sec.

C. MEASUREMENT WITH THE OUTER CASE REMOVED

(1) When you replace the magnetron, measure for

microwave energy leakage before the outer case is

installed and after all necessary components are

replaced or adjusted. Special care should be taken in

measuring the following parts.

- Around the magnetron

- The waveguide

WARNING: AVOID CONTACTING ANY HIGH VOLTAGE

PARTS.

-12-

D. MEASUREMENT WITH A FULLY ASSEMBLED OVEN

(1) After all components, including the outer panels, are

fully assembled, measure for microwave energy
leakage around the door viewing window, the exhaust
opening and air inlet openings.

(2) Microwave energy leakage must not exceed the values

prescribed below.

NOTES:

Leakage with the outer panels removed - less than
5mW/cm2.sq. Leakage for a fully assembled oven
(Before the latch switch (primary) is interrupted) with the
door in a slightly opened position - less than
1 mW/cm2.sq.

E. NOTE WHEN MEASURING

(1) Do not exceed meter full scale deflection.
(2) The test probe must be removed no faster than 1

inch/sec (2.5cm/sec) along the shaded area, otherwise
a false reading may result.

(3) The test probe must be held with the grip portion of the

handle. A false reading may result if the operator’s
hand is between the handle and the probe.

(4) When testing near a corner of the door, keep the probe

perpendicular to the surface making sure the probe
horizontally along the oven surface, this may possibly
cause probe damage.

F. RECORD KEEPING AND NOTIFICATION AFTER

MEASUREMENT

(1) After adjustment and repair of any microwave energy

interruption or microwave energy blocking device,
record the measured values for future reference. Also
enter the information on the service invoice.

(2) Should the microwave energy leakage not be more

than 1mW/cm
good condition, functioning properly and genuine
replacement parts which are listed in this manual have
been used.

(3) At least once a year, have the electromagnetic energy

leakage monitor checked for calibration by its
manufacturer.

.sq. after determining that all parts are in

G. POWER OUTPUT MEASUREMENT

(1) Fill the test beaker with 59°F(15 °C) ~ 75°F(24°C) 1 liter tap

water.

(2) Stir the water in the beaker with thermometer ( °F or °C) and

measure temperature as T1.
(3) Place the beaker on the center of turntable.
(4) Set for one (1) minute and three (3) seconds and operate

the oven at high power.
NOTE: The additional three (3) seconds is to allow the

magnetron to begin generating power.

(5) When the heating is finished, stir the water again with

thermometer and measure the temperature of water as T2.
(6) Subtract T1 from T2, this will give you the temperature rise.
(7) The microwave power output is within specification, if the

temperature rise is as shown below:

I. INTERLOCK SYSTEM

1) INTERLOCK MECHANISM
The door lock mechanism is a device which has been
specially designed to eliminate completely microwave
activity when the door is opened during cooking and thus
to prevent the danger resulting from the microwave
leakage.

2) MOUNTING OF THE PRIMARY/MONITOR/
SECONDARY SWITCHES TO THE LATCH BOARD

3) INSTALLATION AND ADJUSTMENT OF THE LATCH
BOARD TO THE OVEN ASSEMBLY

• Mount the latch board to the oven assembly.

• Adjust the latch board in the arrow direction so that oven

door will not have any play in it when the door is closed.

• Tighten the mounting screw.

• Check for play in the door by pushing the door

release button. Door movement should be less than

0.5 mm. (1/64 inch)

Don't push the door release button while making this
adjustment. Make sure that the latch moves smoothly after
adjustment is completed and that the screws are tight.
Make sure the primary, monitor, and secondary switches
operate properly by following the continuity test
procedure.

A. PRIMARY INTERLOCK SWITCH TEST

When the door release button is depressed slowly with
the door closed, an audible click should be heard at
the same time or successively at intervals. When the
button is released slowly, the latches should activate
the switches with an audible click.
If the latches do not activate the switches when the
door is closed, the switches should be an adjusted in
accordance with the adjustment procedure. Disconnect
the wire lead from the primary switch. Connect the
ohmmeter leads to the common (COM) and normally
open (NO) terminal of the switch. The meter should
indicate an open circuit in the door open condition.
When the door is closed, the meter should indicate a
closed circuit.
When the primary switch operation is abnormal, make
the necessary adjustment or replace the switch only
with the same type of switch.

B. SECONDARY INTERLOCK SWITCH TEST

Disconnect the wire lead from the secondary switch.
Connect the ohmmeter leads to the common (COM)
and normally open (NO) terminals of the switch. The
meter should indicate a open circuit in the door open
condition. When the door is closed, meter should
indicate an closed circuit. When the secondary switch
operation is abnormal, make the necessary adjustment
or replace the switch only with the same type of switch.

C. MONITOR SWITCH TEST

Disconnect the wire lead from the monitor switch.
Connect the ohmmeter leads to the common (COM)
and normally closed (NC) terminals of the switch. The
meter should indicate closed circuit in the door open
condition. When the door is closed, meter should
indicate an open circuit. When the monitor switch
operation is abnormal, replace with the same type of

COMPONENTS TEST PROCEDURE RESULTS

H.V.Diode (RECTIFIER)

STEP 1. Test the diode to see if it is shorted.

Procedure:

1. Select the Ω scale on the meter.

2. Place the meter leads across the diode as
pictured in Figure 14-a. The reading should be
“40M Ω,” “OL,” or a reading of infinity.

3. Reverse the meter leads. The reading should
again indicate a reading of infinity. If the diode
shows “infinity” in BOTH directions, it is NOT
shorted.

4. If the diode is not shorted, proceed to step 2.

STEP 2. Test the diode for forward biasing.

Procedure:

1. Select the DCV scale on the meter.

2. Using the meter, battery, and jumper wire,
connect the items as illustrated in Figure 14-b.
This has the positive side of the battery
connected to the cathode of the diode.

3. The diode should be forward biased therefore
a voltage reading of approximately 4.7 VDC to

6.4 VDC will be read depending on meter, battery
strength, etc. (Note: If the meter leads were
reversed, a negative voltage of the same amount
would be seen.)

Normal:
Approximately
4 .7-6.4V

STEP 3. Test the diode for reverse biasing.

Procedure:

1. Using the same scale on the meter, connect
the positive side of the battery to the anode of the
diode as illustrated in Figure 14-c.

2. The diode should be reverse biased therefore
a reading of 0 volt or a value displayed in mV will
be seen. (The display will be erratic changing
values rapidly in the mV scale.)

Normal:
Approximately 0V
