SAFETY CODE
This manual is designed to assist engineers who have been on a recognised product familiaris ation
and training course run by Merrychef Limited. It has been prepared to of fer tec hnical guidance f or the
Merrychef Microaire Series 5 range of Combination Microwave Ovens.
Please remember that it is wiser
complete it competently, quickly, and above all
To avoid injury to yourself, and to protect the appliance from possible damage, please follow this
Safety Code when servicing these ovens.
Before attempting to repair the oven, check it for microwave leakage.
Check that the oven is not emitting microwaves, even when supposedly not in operation.
Check that the oven is not operating continuously, whether the display indicates cooking or
Always discharge the HT capacitors before working on the oven using a suitably insulated 10
Before removing the rear cover from the oven, do all of the following:
Switch off the mains supply and remove the plug from the wall socket.
•
or
If the oven is hard wired, ensure that the power is turned off at the isolator switch.
•
Note:
the On/Off switch on the oven is
isolate all of the internal wiring from the mains.
Upon completion of a service on a Microaire Series 5 oven, or before reconnecting the applianc e to
the mains supply for testing, check all of the following points:
All internal electrical connections are correct.
•
All wiring insulation is correct and is not touching a sharp edge.
•
All Earth connections are electrically and mechanically secure.
•
All four door safety interlocks are secure and mechanically sound.
•
The door operation is smooth, and the arms run freely in the slots.
•
The door activates all four of the door interlock switches
•
All fuse-holder safety covers are correctly fitted.
•
The temperature sensor is correctly connected to the Power PCB.
•
Before finishing the service call, recheck the following points:
All of the electronics are functioning correctly, and all of the touch pads are working.
•
The turntable is rotating freely.
•
The power output of the oven is correct (see pages 11 & 12 ).
•
Microwave emission is below permissible limit - 5 mW/cm² (see BS EN 60335-2-90:1998).

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Power Supply Requirements
The
Microaire Series
the switching-on surge that occurs with certain types of catering equipment, such as
microwaves. Because of this requirement, we strongly recommend that a separate, suitably
rated supply is installed for the oven.
The supply for the oven should be fitted with a
20 Amp for Microaire 13A/ CD² or 30 Amp for Microaire 30A/ XD²
If the oven is hard-wired to the supply, a double-pole isolator switch with a contact gap of at
least 3 mm should be fitted.
Custom ovens for Railway Use only
Microaire Series 5 RS RF and RS HST Power Supply Requirements
These versions of the oven are custom Rail Specification designs for use on two separate
phases of a mains supply, with isolated neutrals and a common earth connection.The full
power supply and circuit breaker requirem ents for these ovens is listed on the label aff ixed to
the rear of the oven casing.

These ovens are NOT suitable for connection to a standard
circuit breaker, rated at:
Positioning the Oven
In order to maintain adequate ventilation for air intake and exhaust, and to allow access for
cleaning filters, you must allow a minim um of 50 mm clearance at the sides and rear of the
oven, and at least 150 mm above. Air intake temperature should not exceed 35°C.
Excessive temperature will lead to reduced operating duty cycle or premature ageing of internal
components.

the hot air circulation fan. Removable for
cleaning by unscrewing the four wing nuts
which hold it in place. This must be cleaned on
a regular basis, and kept free of debris.

h TURNTABLE TRAY
The vitreous enamelled turntable tray fits onto
the turntable disc in the bottom of the oven
cavity, and rotates during cooking to ensure an
even distribution of microwave energy.
i AIR INLETS
Additional air inlets are situated along the lower
edge of the left-hand side panel, and must not
be obstructed.
j RATING PLATE
The rating plate is situated on the rear of the
oven, and states the Model, Serial Number,

k DOOR
The door consists of a thermally insulated inner
section, and an additional air gap provided by a
twin skinned door front to lower the surface
