WARNING TO SERVICE TECHNICIANS

PRECAUTIONS TO BE OBSERVED BEFORE AND DURING SERVICING TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY

a.Do not operate or allow the oven to be operated with the door open.

b.Make the following safety checks on all ovens to be serviced before activating the magnetron or other microwave source, and make repairs as necessary; (1) Interlock operation, (2) proper door closing, (3) seal and sealing surfaces (arcing, wear, and other damage), (4) damage to or loosening of hinges and latches, (5) evidence of dropping or abuse.

c.Before turning on microwave for any service test or inspection within the microwave generating compartments, check the magnetron, wave guide or transmission line, and cavity for proper alignment, integrity, and connections.

d.Any defective or misadjusted components in the interlock, monitor, door seal, and microwave generation and transmission systems shall be repaired adjusted by procedures described in this manual before the oven is released to the owner.

e.A Microwave leakage check to verify compliance with the Federal performance standard should be performed on each oven prior to release to the owner.

Proper operation of the microwave ovens requires that the magnetron be assembled to the wave guide and cavity. Never operate the magnetron unless it is properly installed.

Be sure that the magnetron gasket is properly installed around the dome of the tube whenever installing the magnetron.

Routine service safety procedures should be exercised at all times.

Untrained personnel should not attempt service without a thorough review of the test procedures and safety information contained in this manual.

CAUTIONS

Unlike other appliances, the microwave oven is high-voltage and high-current equipment. Though it is free from danger in ordinary use, extreme care should be taken during repair.

DO NOT operate on a 2-wire extension cord during repair and use.

NEVER TOUCH any oven components or wiring during operation.

BEFORE TOUCHING any parts of the oven, always remove the power plug from the outlet.

For about 30 seconds after the oven stops, an electric charge remains in the high voltage capacitor. When replacing or checking, you must discharge the high voltage capacitor by shorting across the two terminals with an insulated screwdriver.

Remove your watches whenever working close to or replacing the Magnetron.

DO NOT touch any parts of the control panel circuit. A resulting static electric discharge may damage this P.C.B.

NEVER operate the oven with no load.

NEVER injure the door seal and front plate of the oven cavity.

NEVER put iron tools on the magnetron.

NEVER put anything into the latch hole and the interlock switches area.

MICROWAVE RADIATION

Personnel should not be exposed to the microwave energy which may radiate from the magnetron or other microwave generating device if it is improperly used or connected. All input and output microwave connections, waveguide, flange, and gasket must be secured never operate the device without a microwave energy absorbing load attached. Never look into an open waveguide or antenna while the device is energized.

Proper operation of the microwave oven requires that the magnetron be assembled to the waveguide and cavity. Never operate the magnetron unless it is properly installed.

Be sure that the magnetron gasket is properly installed around the dome of the tube whenever installing the magnetron.

INSTALLATIONS

BEFORE YOU BEGIN, READ THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS COMPLETELY AND CAREFULLY.

INSTALLING

1.Empty the microwave oven and clean inside it with a soft, damp cloth. Check for damage such as misaligned door, damage around the door, dents inside the cavity, or on the exterior.

2.Put the oven on a counter, table, or shelf at least 39.4 inches(100cm) from floor that is strong enough to hold the oven and the food and utensils you put in it. (The control panel side of the oven is the heavy side. Use care when handling.)

3.Do not block the vent and the air intake openings. Blocking vent or air intake openings can cause damage to the oven and poor cooking results. Make sure the microwave oven legs are in place to ensure proper air flow.

4.The oven should not be installed in any area where heat and steam are generated, because they may damage the electronic or mechanical parts of the unit. Do not install the oven next to a conventional surface unit or above a conventional wall oven.

5.Use microwave oven in an ambient temperature less than 104°F(40°C).

6.Place the microwave oven on a sturdy and flat surface at least 2 inches(5 cm) from the wall.

7.Place the microwave oven as far away as possible from TV, RADIO, COMPUTER, TELEPHONE, etc., to prevent interference.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

For personal safety, this appliance must be fully grounded at all times.

In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock.

The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

WARNING

Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord plug.

The air is also directed into the oven to exhaust the vapor in the oven through the upper plate.

Cooking time starts counting down.

3.15 volts AC is generated from the filament winding of the high voltage transformer. This 3.15 volts is applied to the magnetron to heat the magnetron filament through two noise-preventing choke coils.

A high voltage of approximately 2,210 volts AC is generated in the secondary of the high voltage transformer which is increased by the action of the high voltage diode and charging of the high voltage capacitor.

The negative 4,000 Volts DC is applied to the filament of the magnetron.

WHEN THE OVEN IS SET AT ANY LEVEL EXCEPT MAXIMUM.

The micom controller controls the ON-OFF time of relay 2 by the applied signal to vary the average output power of microwave oven as POWER LEVEL. (refer to page 1-1)

One complete cycle of relay 2 is 22 seconds.

WHEN THE DOOR IS OPENED DURING COOKING

Both the primary switch and relay 2 cut off the primary winding voltage of the high voltage transformer.

ON-OFF of relay 2 is coupled electrically with opening and closing of the secondary switch.

When the door is opened, the secondary switch is opened and when the door is closed, the secondary switch is closed.

The cooking time stops counting down.

Relay stops functioning.

As the door is opened, if the contact of primary switch and relay 2 and/or secondary switch fail to open, the fuse opens due to the large current surge caused by the monitor switch activation, which in turn stops magnetron oscillation.

MICROWAVE LEAKAGE TEST

CAUTIONS

Be sure to check microwave leakage prior to servicing the oven if the oven is operative prior to servicing.

The service personnel should inform the manufacture importer, or assembler of any certified oven unit found to have a microwave emission level in excess of 5 mW/cm2 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.

If the oven operates with the door open, the service personnel should:

-Tell the user not to operate the oven.

-Contact the manufacturer.

The service personnel should check all surface and vent openings for microwave leakage.

Check for microwave leakage after every servicing. The power density of the microwave radiation leakage emitted by the microwave oven should not exceed

5 mW/cm2. Always start measuring of an unknown field to assure safety for operating personnel from radiation leakage.

MEASURING MICROWAVE ENERGY LEAKAGE

Pour 275±15cc of 20±5°C(68±9°F) water in a beaker which is graduated to 600 cc, and place the beaker on the center of the turntable.

Set the energy leakage monitor to 2,450 MHz and use it following the manufacturer's recommended test procedure to assure correct result.

When measuring the leakage, always use the

2 inches (5cm) spacer supplied with the probe.

Operate the oven at its maximum output.

Measure the microwave radiation using and electromagnetic radiation monitor by holding the probe perpendicular to the surface being measured

Move probe along shaded area

Probe scanning speed Less than 2.5 cm/sec (1 in/sec)
