1. Disconnect the power supply cord , and then remove
outer case.
2. Open the door and block it open.
3. Discharge high voltage capacitor.
WARNING:RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.
DISCHARGE THE HIGH-VOLTAGE
CAPACITOR BEFORE SERVICING.
The high-voltage capacitor remains charged about 60
seconds after the oven has been switched off. Wait for 60
seconds and then short-circuit the connection of the highvoltage capacitor (that is the connecting lead of the highvoltage rectifier) against the chassis with the use of an
insulated screwdriver.
Whenever troubleshooting is performed the power supply
must be disconnected. It may, in some cases, be necessary
to connect the power supply 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 these 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, and then remove
outer case.
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.
After repairing
1. Reconnect all leads removed from components during
testing.
2. Reinstall the outer case (cabinet).
3. Reconnect the power supply cord after the outer case is
installed.
4. Run the oven and check all functions.
Microwave ovens should not be run empty. To test for the
presence of microwave energy within a cavity, place a cup
of cold water on the oven turntable, close the door and set
the power to HIGH and set the microwave timer for two (2)
minutes. When the two minutes has elapsed (timer at zero)
carefully check that the water is now hot. If the water
remains cold carry out Before Servicing procedure and reexamine the connections to the component being tested.
When all service work is completed and the oven is fully
assembled, the microwave power output should be checked
and microwave leakage test should be carried out.

MICROW A VE 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/cm2 at any point 5cm or more from the external
surface of the oven.
2) Safety interlock switches: Primary interlock switch shall prevent microwave radiation emission in excess of the
requirement as above mentioned, secondary interlock relay and door sensing switch shall prevent microwave radiation
emission in excess of 5 mW/cm2 at any point 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.
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/cm2,
and that the primary interlock switch and the secondary interlock relay do turn the oven OFF before any door movement.
NOTE: After servicing, record data on service invoice and microwave leakage report.

SENSOR COOKING CONDITION
Using the Sensor Cooking function, the foods are cooked or
defrosted without figuring time, power level or quantity. When
the oven senses enough steam from the food, it relays the
information to its microprocessor which will calculate the
remaining cooking time and power level needed for best
results. When the food is cooked, water vapor is developed.
The sensor “senses” the vapor and its resistance increases
gradually. When the resistance reaches the value set according to the menu, supplementary cooking is started. The time
of supplementary cooking is determined by experiment with
each food category and inputted into the LSI.
An example of how sensor works
(Baked potatoes):
1. Potatoes at room temperature.
Vapor is emitted very slowly.
2. Heat potatoes. Moisture
and humidity is emitted
rapidly. You can smell the
aroma as it cooks.
AH SENSOR
MICROWAVE
MICROWAVE
3. Sensor detects moisture and humidity and calculates
cooking time and variable power.
Cooking Sequence.
1. Operate the oven in sensor cooking mode by referring to
operation manual.
NOTE: The oven should not be operated on Sensor Cooking
immediately after plugging in the unit. Wait two
minutes before cooking on Sensor Cooking.
2. The coil of shut-off relay (RY1) is energized, the oven
lamp, turntable motor and cooling fan motor are turned
on, but the power transformer is not turned on.
3. After about 32 seconds, the cook relay (RY2) is energized.
The power transformer is turned on, microwave energy
is produced and first stage is started.
The 32 seconds is the cooling time required to remove
any vapor from the oven cavity and sensor.
NOTE: During this first stage, do not open the door or touch
STOP/CLEAR pad.
4. When the sensor detects the vapor emitted from the
food, the display switches over to the remaining cooking
time and the timer counts down to zero.
At this time, the door may be opened to stir food, turn it
or season, etc.
5. When the timer reaches zero, an audible signal sounds.
The shut-off relay and cook relay are de-energized and
the power transformer, oven lamp, etc. are turned off.
6. Opening the door or touching the STOP/CLEAR pad, the
time of day will reappear on the display and the oven will
revert to an OFF condition.
