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.
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 connection. All input and output microwave connections, waveguide, flange and gasket must be secure 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.
ANTENNA
Gasket
Remove your watches whenever working close to or
replacing the Magnetron.
NEVER operate the oven with no load.
NEVER injure the door seal and front plate of the oven
cavity.

GENERAL DETAILS
The low voltage transformer supplies the necessary voltage to the micom controller when power cord is plugged in.
When the door is closed, the primary switch is ON, the
secondary switch is ON, and the monitor switch opens (contact COM and NO).
WHEN SELECTING COOKING POWER LEVEL AND TIME
The micom controller memorizes the function you set.
The time you set appears in the display window.
Each indicator light turns on to indicate that the stage
has been set.
WHEN TOUCHING THE START PAD
The coil of the relay is energized by the micom
controller.
Power input is supplied to the high voltage transformer
through the fuse to the primary switch and relay 2.
Turntable rotates.
power of microwave oven as POWER LEVEL.
(refer to page 1-1)
WHEN THE DOOR IS OPENED DURING COOKING
Both the primary switch and relay 2 are cut off 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 fails to open, the fuse opens due to the large current surge caused by the monitor switch activation, which in turn stops magnetron oscillation.

TRANS-
FORMER
The fan motor rotates and cools the magnetron by blowing the air (coming from the intake on the baseplate).
The air is also directed into the oven to exhaust the vapor in the oven through the upper plate.
Cooking time starts counting down.
3.2 volts AC is generated from the filament winding of
the high voltage transformer. This 3.2 volts is applied to the magnetron to heat the magnetron filament through two noise-preventing choke coils.
A high voltage of approximately 2100 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 4000 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

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/cm2and 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 4 mW/cm2. Always start measuring of an unknown field to assure safety for operating personnel from radiation leakage.

5-1
MEASUREMENT WITH OUTER CASE REMOVED
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. (Circled area of below Fig.)
- Around the magnetron
- The waveguide
WARNING : AVOID CONTACTING ANY
HIGH VOLTAGE PARTS
NOTES WHEN MEASURING
Do not exceed meter full scale deflection.
The test probe must be removed no faster than
1 inch/sec (2.5 cm/sec) along the shaded area, otherwise a false reading may result.
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.
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.
RECORD KEEPING AND NOTIFICATION AFTER MEASUREMENT
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.
The microwave energy leakage should not be more than 4 mW/cm.sq. after determining that all parts are in good condition, functioning properly and genuine replacement parts which are listed in this manual have been used.
At least once a year, have the electromagnetic energy leakage monitor checked for calibration by its manufacturer.
MEASUREMENT WITH A FULLY ASSEMBLED OVEN
After all components, including the outer case, are fully assembled, measure for microwave energy leakage around the door viewing window, the exhaust opening, and air inlet openings.
Microwave energy leakage must not exceed the values prescribed below.
NOTE: Leakage with the outer case removedless than
5 mW/cm.sq. Leakage for a fully assembled oven (Before the latch switch (primary) is interrupted) with the door in a slightly opened position-less than 2 mW/cm.sq.
