MICROWAVE MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE

A. Requirements:

1) Microwave leakage limit (Power density limit): The power density of microwave radiation emitted by a microwave oven should not exceed 1mW/cm2 at any point 5cm or more from the external surface of the oven, measured prior to acquisition by a purchaser, and thereafter (through the useful life of the oven), 5 mW/cm of the oven.

2) Safety interlock switches: Primary interlock relay and door sensing switch shall prevent microwave radiation emission in excess of the requirement as above mentioned, secondary interlock switch shall prevent microwave radiation emission in excess of 5 mW/cm 5cm or more from the external surface of the oven.

B. Preparation for testing: Before beginning the actual measurement of leakage, proceed as follows:

1) Make sure that the actual instrument is operating normally as specified in its instruction booklet.

Important: Survey instruments that comply with the requirement for instrumentation as prescribed by the performance standard for microwave ovens, 21 CFR 1030.10(c)(3)(i), must be used for testing.

2) Place the oven tray in the oven cavity.

3) Place the load of 275±15 ml (9.8 oz) of tap water initially at 20±5˚C (68˚F) in the center of the oven cavity. The water container shall be a low form of 600 ml (20 oz) beaker with an inside diameter of approx. 8.5 cm (3-1/2 in.) and made of an electrically nonconductive material such as glass or plastic. The placing of this standard load in the oven is important not only to protect the oven, but also to insure that any leakage is measured accurately.

4) Set the cooking control on Full Power Cooking Mode.

5) Close the door and select a cook cycle of several minutes. If the water begins to boil before the survey is completed, replace it with 275 ml of cool water.

at any point 5cm or more from the external surface

at any point

C. Leakage test:

Closed-door leakage test (microwave measurement)

1) Grasp the probe of the survey instrument and hold it perpendicular to the gap between the door and the body of the oven.

2) Move the probe slowly, not faster than 1 in./sec. (2.5 cm/sec.) along the gap, watching for the maximum indication on the meter.

3) Check for leakage at the door screen, sheet metal seams and other accessible positions where the continuity of the metal has been breached (eg., around the switches, indicator, and vents). While testing for leakage around the door pull the door away from the front of the oven as far as is permitted by the closed latch assembly.

4) Measure carefully at the point of highest leakage and make sure that the highest leakage is no greater than 4mW/cm

, and that

the secondary interlock switch and the primary interlock relay do turn the oven OFF before any door movement.

NOTE: After servicing, record data on service invoice and microwave leakage report.

GENERAL INFORMATION

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This oven is equipped with a three prong grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.

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

Electrical Requirements The electrical requirements are a 120 volt 60 Hz, AC only, 15 or 20 amp. fused electrical supply. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided. When installing this appliance, observe all applicable codes and ordinances. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce risks of becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Where a two-pronged wall-receptacle is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to contact a qualified electrician and have it replaced with a properly grounded three-pronged wall receptacle or have a grounding adapter

properly grounded and polarized. If the extension cord must be used, it

OPERATION

DESCRIPTION OF OPERATING SEQUENCE

The following is a description of component functions during oven operation.

OFF CONDITION

Closing the door activates the door sensing switch and secondary interlock switch. (In this condition, the monitor switch contacts are opened.) When oven is plugged in, 120 volts A.C. is supplied to the control unit. (Figure O-1).

1. The display will show flashing "88:88".

To set any program or set the clock, you must first touch the STOP/CLEAR pad. The display will clear, and " : " will appear.

COOKING CONDITION

Program desired cooking time by touching the NUMBER pads. Program the power level by touching the POWER LEVEL pad. When the START pad is touched, the following operations occur:

1. The contacts of relays are closed and components connected to the relays are turned on as follows. (For details, refer to Figure O-2)

RELAY CONNECTED COMPONENTS RY-1 oven lamp/turntable motor/fan motor RY-2 power transformer

2. 120 volts A.C. is supplied to the primary winding of the power transformer and is converted to about 3.3 volts A.C. output on the filament winding, and approximately 2360 volts A.C. on the high voltage winding.

3. The filament winding voltage heats the magnetron filament and the H.V. winding voltage is sent to a voltage doubler circuit.

4. The microwave energy produced by the magnetron is channelled through the waveguide into the cavity feed-box, and then into the cavity where the food is placed to be cooked.

5. Upon completion of the cooking time, the power transformer, oven lamp, etc. are turned off, and the generation of microwave energy is stopped. The oven will revert to the OFF condition.

6. When the door is opened during a cook cycle, the monitor switch, door sensing switch, secondary interlock switch, relay (RY1) and primary interlock relay are activated with the following results. The circuits to the turntable motor, the cooling fan motor, and the high voltage components are deenergized, the oven lamp remains on, and the digital readout displays the time still remaining in the cook cycle when the door was opened.

7. The monitor switch electrically monitors the operation of the secondary interlock switch and primary interlock relay and is mechanically associated with the door so that it will function in the following sequence.

(1) When the door opens from the closed position, the primary

interlock relay (RY2) and secondary interlock switch open their contacts. And contacts of the relay (RY1) remains closed. Then the monitor switch contacts close.

(2) When the door is closed from the open position, the monitor

switch contacts open first. Then the contacts of the secondary interlock switch and door sensing switch close. And contacts

of the relay (RY1) open. If the secondary interlock switch and primary interlock relay (RY2) fail with the contacts closed when the door is opened, the closing of the monitor switch contacts will form a short circuit through the C/T fuse, secondary interlock switch, relay (RY1) and primary interlock relay (RY2), causing the C/T fuse to blow.

POWER LEVEL P-0 TO P-90 COOKING

When Variable Cooking Power is programmed, the 120 volts A.C. is supplied to the power transformer intermittently through the contacts of relay (RY-2) which is operated by the control unit within a 32 second time base. Microwave power operation is as follows:

VARI-MODE ON TIME OFF TIME

P-HI (100% power) 32 sec. 0 sec.

P-90 (approx. 90% power) 30 sec. 2 sec.

P-80 (approx. 80% power) 26 sec. 6 sec.

P-70 (approx. 70% power) 24 sec. 8 sec.

P-60 (approx. 60% power) 22 sec. 10 sec.

P-50 (approx. 50% power) 18 sec. 14 sec.

P-40 (approx. 40% power) 16 sec. 16 sec.

P-30 (approx. 30% power) 12 sec. 20 sec.

P-20 (approx. 20% power) 8 sec. 24 sec.

P-10 (approx. 10% power) 6 sec. 26 sec.

P-0 (approx. 0% power) 0 sec. 32 sec.

Note: The ON/OFF time ratio does not correspond with

the percentage of microwave power, because approx. 3 seconds are needed for heating of the magnetron filament.

DESCRIPTION AND FUNCTION OF COMPONENTS

DOOR OPEN MECHANISM

The door is opened by pushing the open button on the control panel, refer to the Figure D-1. When the open button is pushed, the open button pushes up the switch lever, and then the switch lever pushes up the latch head. The latch heads are moved upward and released from latch hook. Now the door will open.

Figure D-1. Door Open Mechanism

DOOR SENSING AND SECONDARY INTERLOCK SWITCHES

The secondary interlock switch is mounted in the lower position of the latch hook and the door sensing switch in the primary interlock system is mounted in the upper position of the latch hook. They are activated by the latch heads on the door. When the door is opened, the switches interrupt the power to all high voltage components. A cook cycle cannot take place until the door is firmly closed thereby activating both interlock switches. The primary interlock system consists of the door sensing switch and primary interlock relay located on the control circuit board.

MONITOR SWITCH

The monitor switch is activated (the contacts opened) by the latch head on the door while the door is closed. The switch is intended to render the oven inoperative, by means of blowing the C/T fuse, when the contacts of the primary interlock relay (RY2) and secondary interlock switch fail to open when the door is opened.

Functions:

1. When the door is opened, the monitor switch contacts close (to the ON condition) due to their being normally closed. At this time the primary interlock relay (RY2) and secondary interlock switch are in the OFF condition (contacts open) due to its being normally open contact switches.

2. As the door goes to a closed position, the monitor switch contacts are first opened and then the door sensing switch and secondary interlock switch contacts close.

3. If the door is opened, and the primary interlock relay (RY2) and the secondary interlock switch contact fail to open, the C/T fuse blows simultaneously with closing of the monitor switch contacts.

CAUTION: BEFORE REPLACING A BLOWN C/T FUSE,

TEST THE DOOR SENSING SWITCH, PRIMARY INTERLOCK RELAY (RY2), SECONDARY INTERLOCK SWITCH AND MONITOR SWITCH FOR PROPER OPERATION. (REFER TO CHAPTER "TEST PROCEDURE").

NOTE: C/T FUSE AND MONITOR SWITCH ARE

REPLACED AS AN ASSEMBLY.

TURNTABLE MOTOR

The turntable motor rotates the turntable located on the bottom

of the oven cavity, so that the food on the turntable is cooked evenly. The turntable may turn in either direction.

COOLING FAN MOTOR

The cooling fan motor drives a blade which draws external cool air. This cool air is directed through the air vents surrounding the magnetron and cools the magnetron. This air is channelled through the oven cavity to remove steam and vapours given off from the heating foods. It is then exhausted through the exhausting air vents at the oven cavity.

TEMPERATURE FUSE (OVEN)

The temperature fuse, located on the top of the oven cavity, is designed to prevent damage to the oven by fire. If the food load is overcooked, by either error in cook time or defect in the control unit, the temperature fuse will open. Under normal operation, the temperature fuse remains closed. However, when abnormally high temperatures are reached within the oven cavity, the temperature fuse will open at 302˚F(150˚C), causing the oven to shut down.

THERMAL CUT-OUT (OVEN)

The thermal cut-out, located on the top of the oven cavity, is designed to prevent damage to the oven by fire. If the food load is overcooked, by either error in cook time or defect in the control unit, the thermal cut-out will open. Under normal operation, the oven thermal cut-out remains closed. However, when abnormally high temperatures are reached within the oven cavity, the oven thermal cut-out will open at 293˚F(145˚C), causing the oven to shut down.

C/T FUSE

1. The C/T fuse blows when the contacts (COM-NO) of the primary interlock relay (RY2) and secondary interlock switch remain closed with the oven door open and when the monitor switch closes.

2. If the wire harness or electrical components are shortcircuited, this C/T fuse blows to prevent an electric shock or fire hazard.

3. The C/T fuse, located near the magnetron, is designed to prevent damage to the magnetron. If an over heated condition develops in the magnetron due to cooling fan failure, obstructed air guide, dirty or blocked air intake, etc., the C/ T fuse will open.

Under normal operation, the C/T fuse remains closed. However, when abnormally high temperatures are reached within the oven cavity, the C/T fuse will open at 302˚F (150˚C), causing the oven to shut down or when the electric currents beyond 20A flow, the C/T fuse will open.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

Never touch any part in the circuit with your hand or an uninsulated tool while the power supply is connected.

When troubleshooting the microwave oven, it is helpful to follow the Sequence of Operation in performing the checks. Many of the possible causes of trouble will require that a specific test be performed. These tests are given a procedure letter which will be found in the "Test Procedure "section.

IMPORTANT: If the oven becomes inoperative because of a blown C/T fuse, check the monitor switch, primary interlock

relay (RY2), door sensing switch and secondary interlock switch before replacing the C/T fuse. If C/T fuse is replaced, the monitor switch must also be replaced. Use part FFS-BA034WRKZ as an assembly.

IMPORTANT: Whenever troubleshooting is performed with the power supply cord disconnected. It may in, some cases, be

necessary to connect the power supply cord after the outer case has been removed, in this event,

1. Disconnect the power supply cord, and then remove outer case.

2. Open the door and block it open.

3. Discharge high voltage capacitor.

4. Disconnect the leads to the primary of the power transformer.

5. Ensure that the leads remain isolated from other components and oven chassis by using insulation tape.

6. After that procedure, reconnect the power supply cord.

When the testing is completed,

1. Disconnect the power supply cord.

2. Open the door and block it open.

3. Discharge high voltage capacitor.

4. Reconnect the leads to the primary of the power transformer.

5. Reinstall the outer case (cabinet).

6. Reconnect the power supply cord after the outer case is installed.

7. Run the oven and check all functions.

MICROWAVE OUTPUT POWER

The following test procedure should be carried out with the microwave oven in a fully assembled condition (outer case fitted).

HIGH VOLTAGES ARE PRESENT DURING THE COOK CYCLE, SO EXTREME CAUTION SHOULD BE OBSERVED.

Power output of the magnetron can be measured by performing a water temperature rise test. This test should only be used if above tests do not indicate a faulty magnetron and there is no defect in the following components or wiring: silicon rectifier, high voltage capacitor and power transformer. This test will require a 16 ounce (453cc) measuring cup and an accurate mercury thermometer or thermocouple type temperature tester. For accurate results, the following procedure must be followed carefully:

1. Fill the measuring cup with 16 oz. (453cc) of tap water and measure the temperature of the water with a thermometer or thermocouple temperature tester. Stir the thermometer or thermocouple through the water until the temperature stabilizes. Record the temperature of the water.

2. Place the cup of water in the oven. Operate oven at POWER P-HI(HIGH) selecting more than 60 seconds cook time. Allow the water to heat for 60 seconds, measuring with a stop watch, second hand of a watch or the digital read-out countdown.

3. Remove the cup from the oven and again measure the temperature, making sure to stir the thermometer or thermocouple through the water until the maximum temperature is recorded.

4. Subtract the cold water temperature from the hot water temperature. The normal result should be 35 to 65˚F(19.4 to 36.1˚C) rise in temperature. If the water temperatures are accurately measured and tested for the required time period the test results will indicate if the magnetron tube has low power output (low rise in water temperature) which would extend cooking time or high power output (high rise in water temperature) which would reduce cooking time. Because cooking time can be adjusted to compensate for power output, the magnetron tube assembly should be replaced only if the water temperature rise test indicates a power output well beyond the normal limits. The test is only accurate if the power supply line voltage is 120 volts and the oven cavity is clean.

The principal functions of these units and the signals communicated among them are explained below.

Key Unit

The key unit is composed of a matrix, signals generated in the LSI are sent to the key unit through P22, P23, P24, P25, P26, P31, P32 and P33. When a key pad is touched, a signal is completed through the key unit and passed back to the LSI through P50, P51, P52 and P53 to perform the function that was requested.

Control Unit

Control unit consists of LSI, reset circuit, indicator circuit, power source circuit, relay circuit, buzzer circuit, synchronizing signal circuit and back light circuit.

1) Reset Circuit

This circuit generates a signal which resets the LSI to the initial state when power is supplied.

3) Power Source Circuit

This circuit generates voltages necessary in the control unit from the AC line voltage. In addition, the synchronizing signal is available in order to compose a basic standard time in the clock circuit.

1. Precautions for Handling Electronic Components

This unit uses CMOS LSI in the integral part of the circuits. When handling these parts, the following precautions should be strictly followed. CMOS LSI have extremely high impedance at its input and output terminals. For this reason, it is easily influenced by the surrounding high voltage power source, static electricity charge in clothes, etc. and sometimes it is not fully protected by the built-in protection circuit. In order to protect CMOS LSI.

1) When storing and transporting, thoroughly wrap them in aluminium foil. Also wrap all PW boards containing them in aluminium foil.

2) When soldering, ground the technician as shown in the figure and use grounded soldering iron and work table.

approx. 1M ohm

2. Servicing of Touch Control Panel

We describe the procedures to permit servicing of the touch control panel of the microwave oven and the precautions you must take when doing so. To perform the servicing, power to the touch control panel is available either from the power line of the oven itself or from an external power source.

(1) Servicing the touch control panel with power supply of

the oven: CAUTION: THE HIGH VOLTAGE TRANSFORMER OF THE MICROWAVE OVEN IS STILL LIVE DURING SERVICING AND PRESENTS A HAZARD.

Therefore, before checking the performance of the touch control panel,

1) Disconnect the power supply cord, and then remove outer case.

2) Open the door and block it open.

3) Discharge high voltage capacitor.

4) Disconnect the leads to the primary of the power transformer.

5) Ensure that these leads remain isolated from other components and oven chassis by using insulation tape.

6) After that procedure, re-connect the power supply cord.

After checking the performance of the touch control panel,

1) Disconnect the power supply cord.

2) Open the door and block it open.

3) Re-connect the leads to the primary of the power transformer.

4) Re-install the outer case (cabinet).

5) Re-connect the power supply cord after the outer case is installed.

6) Run the oven and check all functions.

A. On some models, the power supply cord between the touch

control panel and the oven itself is so short that the two can’t be separated. For those models, check and repair all the controls (sensor-related ones included) of the touch control panel while keeping it connected to the oven.

B. On some models, the power supply cord between the touch

control panel and the oven proper is long enough that they may be separated from each other. For those models, it is possible to check and repair the controls of the touch control panel while keeping it apart from the oven proper; in this case you must short both ends of the door sensing switch (on PWB) of the touch control panel with a jumper, which activates an operational state that is equivalent to the oven door being closed. As for the sensor-related controls of the touch control panel, checking them is possible if dummy resistor(s) with resistance equal to that of the controls are used.

(2) Servicing the touch control panel with power supply

from an external power source:

Disconnect the touch control panel completely from the oven proper, and short both ends of the door sensing switch (on PWB) of the touch control panel, which activates an operational state that is equivalent to the oven door being closed. Connect an external power source to the power input terminal of the touch control panel, then it is possible to check and repair the controls of the touch control panel it is also possible to check the sensor-related controls of the touch control panel by using the dummy resistor(s).

3. Servicing Tools

Tools required to service the touch control panel assembly.

1) Soldering iron: 30W (It is recommended to use a soldering iron with a grounding terminal.)

2) Oscilloscope: Single beam, frequency range: DC-10MHz type or more advanced model.

3) Others: Hand tools

4. Other Precautions

1) Before turning on the power source of the control unit, remove the aluminium foil applied for preventing static electricity.

2) Connect the connectors of the key unit to the control unit being sure that the lead wires are not twisted.

3) After aluminium foil is removed, be careful that abnormal voltage due to static electricity etc. is not applied to the input or output terminals.

4) Attach connectors, electrolytic capacitors, etc. to PWB, making sure that all connections are tight.

5) Be sure to use specified components where high precision is required.

PRECAUTIONS FOR USING LEAD-FREE SOLDER

1. Employing lead-free solder

The "Main PWB" of this model employs lead-free solder. This is indicated by the "LF" symbol printed on the PWB and in the service manual. The suffix letter indicates the alloy type of the solder. Example:

Sn-Ag-Cu

Indicates lead-free solder of tin, silver and copper.

2. Using lead-free wire solder

When repairing a PWB with the "LF" symbol, only lead-free solder should be used. (Using normal tin/lead alloy solder may result in cold soldered joints and damage to printed patterns.) As the melting point of lead-free solder is approximately 40˚C higher than tin/lead alloy solder, it is recommend that a dedicated bit is used, and that the iron temperature is adjusted accordingly.

3. Soldering

As the melting point of lead-free solder (Sn-Ag-Cu) is higher and has poorer wettability, (flow), to prevent damage to the land of the PWB, extreme care should be taken not to leave the bit in contact with the PWB for an extended period of time. Remove the bit as soon as a good flow is achieved. The high content of tin in lead free solder will cause premature corrosion of the bit. To reduce wear on the bit, reduce the temperature or turn off the iron when it is not required. Leaving different types of solder on the bit will cause contamination of the different alloys, which will alter their characteristics, making good soldering more difficult. It will be necessary to clean and replace bits more often when using lead-free solder. To reduce bit wear, care should be taken to clean the bit thoroughly after each use.
