(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 power
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, replaced, or 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.
PRECAUTIONS TO BE OBSERVED BEFORE AND DURING
SERVICING TO A VOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE
MICROWAVE ENERGY

1. Precaution
1-1 Safety precautions ( )
Samsung Electronics 1-1
1. All repairs should be done in accordance
with the procedures described in this
manual. This product complies with
Federal Performance Standard 21 CFR
Subchapter J (DHHS).
2. Microwave emission check should be
performed to prior to servicing if the oven is
operative.
3. If the oven operates with the door open :
Instruct the user not to operate the oven and
contact the manufacturer and the center for
devices and radiological health immediatly.
4. Notify the Central Service Center if the
microwave leakage exceeds 5 mW/cm
2
5. Check all grounds.
6. Do not power the MWO from a "2-prong"
AC cord. Be sure that all of the built-in
protective devices are replaced. Restore any
missing protective shields.
7. When reinstalling the chassis and its
assemblies, be sure to restore all protective
devices, including: nonmetallic control
knobs and compartment covers.
8. Make sure that there are no cabinet openings
through which people--particularly
children--might insert objects and contact
dangerous voltages. Examples: Lamp hole,
ventilation slots.
9. Inform the manufacturer of any oven found
to have emmission in excess of 5 mW/cm2,
Make repairs to bring the unit into
compliance at no cost to owner and try to
determine cause.
Instruct owner not to use oven until it has
been brought into compliance.
CENTRAL SERVICE CENTER
10. Service technicians should remove their
watches while repairing an MWO.
11. To avoid any possible radiation hazard,
replace parts in accordance with the wiring
diagram. Also, use only the exact
replacements for the following parts:
Primary and secondary interlock switches,
interlock monitor switch.
12. If the fuse is blown by the Interlock Monitor
Switch: Replace all of the following at the
same time: Primary and secondary switches,
as well as the Interlock Monitor Switch. The
correct adjustment of these switches is
described elsewhere in this manual. Make
sure that the fuse has the correct rating for
the particular model being repaired.
13. Design Alteration Warning:
Use exact replacement parts only, i.e.,
only those that are specified in the
drawings and parts lists of this manual.
This is especially important for the
Interlock switches, described above.
Never alter or add to the mechanical or
electrical design of the MWO. Any design
changes or additions will void the
manufacturer's warranty.10.Always unplug
the unit's AC power cord from the AC
power source before attempting to
remove or reinstall any component or
assembly.
14. Never defeat any of the B+ voltage
interlocks. Do not apply AC power to the
unit (or any of its assemblies) unless all
solid-state heat sinks are correctly installed.
15. Some semiconductor ("solid state") devices
are easily damaged by static electricity. Such
components are called Electrostatically
Sensitive Devices (ESDs). Examples include
integrated circuits and field-effect
transistors.
Immediately before handling any
semiconductor components or assemblies,
drain the electrostatic charge from your
body by touching a known earth ground.
16. Always connect a test instrument's ground
lead to the instrument chassis ground before
connecting the positive lead; always remove
the instrument's ground lead last.
Follow these special safety precautions. Although the microwave oven is completely safe during ordinary
use, repair work can be extremely hazardous due to possible exposure to microwave radiation, as well as
potentially lethal high voltages and currents.

17. When checking the continuity of the witches
or transformer, always make sure that the
power is OFF, and one of the lead wires is
disconnected.
18. Components that are critical for safety are
indicated in the circuit diagram by
shading, or .
19. Use replacement components that have the
same ratings, especially for flame resistance
and dielectric strength specifications. A
replacement part that does not have the
same safety characteristics as the original
might create shock, fire or other hazards.
1. High Voltage Warning
Do not attempt to measureany of the high
voltages--this includes the filament voltage
of the magnetron. High voltage is present
during any cook cycle.
Before touching any components or wiring,
always unplug the oven and discharge the
high voltage capacitor (See Figure 1-1)
2. The high-voltage capacitor remains charged
about 30 seconds after disconnection. Short
the negative terminal of the high-voltage
capacitor to to the oven chassis. (Use a
screwdriver.)
3. High voltage is maintained within specified
limits by close-tolerance, safety-related
components and adjustments. If the high
voltage exceeds the specified limits, check
each of the special components.
