[1] Before Servicing

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 shortcircuit the connection of the high-voltage capacitor (that is the connecting lead of the high-voltage 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 the leads remain isolated from other components and oven chassis by using insulation tape.

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

[2] 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.

[3] 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 re-examine 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.

CHAPTER 2. MICROWAVE MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE

Service Manual

[1] Requirements:

1. Microwave leakage limit (Power density limit): The power density of microwave radiation emitted by a microwave oven should not exceed 1mW/ cm

2 at any point 5cm or more from the external surface of the oven, measured prior to acquisition by a purchaser, and thereafter (through the use-

ful life of the oven), 5 mW/cm

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 the external surface of the oven.

2 at any point 5cm or more from the external surface of the oven.

2 at any point 5cm or more from

[2] 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±5 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.

[3] 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 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.

Service Manual

[1] 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 115 -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 twopronged 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 threepronged wall receptacle or have a grounding adapter properly grounded and polarized. If the extension cord must be used, it should be a 3-wire, 15 amp. or higher rated cord. Do not drape over a countertop or table where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.

CAUTION: DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR REMOVE THE ROUND

CHAPTER 6. OPERATION

[1] DESCRIPTION OF OPERATING SEQUENCE

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

Service Manual

1. OFF CONDITION

Closing the door activates 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. through the noise filter (Figure O-1).

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

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

2. COOKING CONDITION

Program desired cooking time by touching the NUMBER pads. And program the power level by touching the POWER LEVEL pad.

When the START pad is touched, the following operations occur:

1) 1.The contacts of the 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 3.35 volts A.C. output on the filament winding, and approximately 2000 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, monitor switch, door sensing switch, secondary interlock switch and primary interlock relay are activated with the following results. The circuits to the oven lamp, turntable motor, the cooling fan motor, and the high voltage components are de-energized, and the digital read-out displays the time still remaining in the cook cycle when the door was opened.

7) The monitor switch is electrically monitoring the operation of the secondary interlock switch and primary interlock relay (RY2) and is mechanically associated with the door so that it will function in the following sequence.

a) When the door opens from the closed position, the secondary

interlock switch, door sensing switch and primary interlock relay (RY2) open their contacts. Then the monitor switch contacts close.

b) (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.

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 monitor fuse, primary interlock relay (RY2) and secondary interlock switch, causing the monitor fuse to blow.

3. POWER LEVEL 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 (0% power) 0 sec. 32 sec.

NOTE: The ON/OFF time ratio does not correspond with the per-

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

4. POWER OUTPUT REDUCTION

If the oven is set for more than 20 minutes at 80, 90 or 100% power level, after the first 20 minutes the power level will automatically adjust itself to 70% power to avoid overcooking.

[3] DESCRIPTION AND FUNCTION OF COMPONENTS

1. 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.

Latch Heads

Switch Lever

Figure D-1. Door Open Mechanism.

Latch Hook

Door Sensing Switch

Monitor Switch

Secondary Interlock Switch

2. 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.

3. 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 monitor 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 monitor fuse blows simultaneously with closing of the monitor switch contacts.

CAUTION: BEFORE REPLACING A BLOWN MONITOR 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: MONITOR FUSE AND MONITOR SWITCH ARE REPLACED

AS AN ASSEMBLY.

4. 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.

5. 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.

6. 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.

7. 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 cutout 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.

8. MONITOR FUSE

1) The monitor fuse blows when the contacts (COM-NO) of the primary interlock relay (RY2) and the 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 short-circuited, this monitor fuse blows to prevent an electric shock or fire hazard.

9. NOISE FILER

The noise filter prevents the radio frequency interference that might flow back in the power circuit.
