BASIC CLEANING PROCEDURES
PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH IMPROPER
CLEANING
The oven may not be operating correctly because
it is not being cleaned properly. If the door is
leaking microwaves, erratic operation of the
display and other electrical components can
occur. Also food deposits left in the oven will turn
into black carbon from the high heat. Carbon can
cause arcing inside the cooking area and can
reflect energy back to the magnetron.
If a customer tells you they are experiencing
cooking performance problems, carefully inspect
the cooking platter and waveguide cap for chips.
If the platter or waveguide cap are chipped and
soaked in water, they will absorb the water. The
water will then be heated instead of the food
product. The chipped part must be replaced.
DAILY CLEANING
1. Carefully remove the ceramic cooking platter
and wave–guide cap. Spray both pieces only with TurboCare→ Oven Cleaner and set
aside to allow the cleaner to penetrate. DO
NOT soak the Ceramic Cook Platter or
Waveguide Cap in water.
2. Clean the ceramic cooking platter, and wave
guide cap using brushes and scrub pads.
Rinse to remove all cleaner and debris.
Inspect for damage and replace as required.
3. Reinstall the clean wave–guide cap into the oven. This will protect the wave–guide
seal while the cook chamber is cleaned.
4. To clean the interior of the oven, use a 3”x5”
green scrub pad. Use only TurboCare→Oven Cleaner on tough spots. DO NOT
wash out the interior cooking area. The
waveguide quartz seal is not a water tight
seal. Wipe out the oven with a damp rag. If
the door area needs cleaning, be careful not
to damage the small rubber gasket around
the door shunt area.
5. Remove the lower access panel and grease
collection pan. Empty, clean and reinstall the
pan.
6. Verify the louvers on the front and side of the
oven are clean of lint and unobstructed.

ERROR MESSAGES
LO MAG CURR – the magnetron transformer is
drawing less than 7 amps. The normal current
draw is approximately 9 amps. The current draw is
being monitored by the control board which has a
current transformer mounted on it.
LO COOK TEMP – the temperature set for the C3
SERIES is not being maintained within 84oF
(46oC) of the Cook Chamber Setpoint. It is
referenced by the cook chamber type K
thermocouple. Note: It may also be controlled by
the heat exchanger thermocouple.
MAG OT – the snap disk on the magnetron has
overheated and has tripped.
BLOWER STAT – the control board is not
receiving the proper output from the convection
(blower) motor speed control.
LO MAG FLUX – there is a small antenna in the
launch tube of the wave guide. This antenna is
attached to the control circuit board by an RF
cable. The control circuit board detects and
amplifies the signal and looks for a certain
fluctuation which indicates the magnetron is
operating and the stirrer blade in the launch tube is
rotating. When not cooking a minimum change of
20 is being looked for. When you are cooking a
product a minimum change of 10 is being looked
for. When viewing the RF display, it will fluctuate
quickly with a maximum value of 120 (plus or
minus 20).
Note: This feature is optional on the C3/C and
C3/CMulti Ovens.
ELECTOVR TMP – the K type thermocouple
connected to the control board is above 140ºF.
OVEN DOOR OPEN – (during cook cycle) the
cooking door has been opened during a cook
cycle and has not been closed properly.

DOOR SWITCHES AND CIRCUIT BREAKERS
DOOR SWITCHES
The C series ovens have 3 door switches as
mandated by law. The C3/AB and C3Multi have
one door switch located on the left hand side
(CDS) and is called the secondary switch. The
other two switches are located on the right hand
side (CDP & CDM). One is called the primary
switch (CDP) and the other is called the monitor
switch (CDM). The C3/C and C3/CMulti switch
orientation is reversed, i.e., the monitor (CDM)
and the primary switch (CDP) are located on the
left side of the oven. The secondary (CDS) is
located on the right side of the oven.
The monitor switch must close before the
primary and secondary switches close (as the
door is closed) or the circuit breaker will trip.
If the primary or secondary switch is
defective and not closing the screen will
display a door open error message. To
determine what sequence the doors are closing

functioning properly. Check winding resistances (See Page 6-5).
A 3 amp draw indicates the diode is bad.
in, you will need to access the Test mode and
activate the Test mode (See pages 3-2 to 3-4).
By doing so, you will activate the status indicators
at the lower left bottom of the display. Slowly
close the door once you have activated the Test
mode and observe the status indicators. As you
close the door the M indicator must change from
a highlighted state followed by the S indicator
and final the P indicator. As you open the door,
the sequence must reverse, i.e., P, S and then M.
If this sequence is not correct, YOU MUST
READJUST THE SWITCHES. See section 4-7.
CIRCUIT BREAKER (CB1)
The circuit breaker is a manual reset switch. It
will trip if the total current draw is more than 35
Amps (C3/AB and C3/C)/15 Amps(C3/Multi or
C3/Cmulti) or if it is activated by a safety fault.
Refer to the chart below to help you determine
what problem you may have if the circuit breaker
has tripped.

DOOR SWITCH ADJUSTMENT
Tools Required:
• # 1 Phillips head screw driver
• # 2 Phillips head screw driver
• 3/8” socket wrench (1/4” drive)
• Needle nose pliers
• Large flat blade screw driver
GOAL
The goal of this adjustment procedure is to have the
Monitor, Secondary and Primary switches close in
that order as the oven door is closed. The switches
must open in the reverse order as the door is
opened, that is, the Primary, Secondary and then
the Monitor open as the door opens. This procedure
is written to insure proper oven operation and
compliance with Federal regulations.
ADJUSTMENT
1) Remove the left and right side access covers
(body sides).
2) Remove the lower louvered front access panel.
3) Remove oven top. It is secured in place with
four 3/8” Nylock nuts to the upper frame sides.
4) Remove screw located on bottom of left side
corner trim (front of oven) and carefully bend
the trim out of the way to allow access to left
side switch assembly and associated hardware.
(See Fig. 4-3 ).
RIGHT SIDE OF OVEN:
NOTE: The C3/C and C3/Cmulti oven switch
arrangement is different from the C3/AB and the
C3Multi. The C3/AB and C3/Multi monitor and
primary switches are on the right-hand side of the
oven and the secondary switch is on the left-hand
side of the oven. Regardless of their position on
the oven, the procedure for adjusting the switches
is the same for both types of ovens. See Figure 4-
4.
5. Remove magnetron plenum assembly (secured
by one PPH screw at rear of oven). The
plenum assembly is located on the bottom right
side of the oven.
6. On models C3/AB and C3Multi it may be
necessary to remove the 35 AMP circuit
breaker in order to gain access to the limit
switches. If this is necessary, label each wire
prior to removing it from the Circuit Breaker in
the following step.
Electrical Compartment
7. Carefully pull down two tabs on the bottom of
the circuit breaker and pull the breaker up and
out to remove it from the din rail allowing
access to the switch brackets on the right side
of the oven
Note: Refer to page 4-14, DOOR ADJUSTMENT,
along with this section if the cam follower bracket
assembly has to be adjusted and tightened. This is
very important to prevent any potential damage
to the door hardware from interference and to
assure proper door closing tension.
8. Check that the trailing arm is properly engaged
in cam follower bracket assembly and trailing
arm guide blocks. When the door is closed the
trailing arms should sit as shown. See Figure
4-3.
9. If the trailing arm is not properly engaged in
cam follower bracket assembly or if it is hitting
the assembly loosen the two 3/8” nuts securing
the cam follower assembly.
10. Cam follower bracket assembly has clearance
at the bottom to move. Pick up on trailing arm
to engage it in trailing arm guide blocks and
move cam follower bracket assembly up into
notch on trailing arm. See Figure 4-5. Tighten
the two 3/8” nuts when adjustment is correct.
11. When properly aligned, the door should have
no play when pushed in the closed position and
when opened the first movement of the trailing
arm should be up and over the cam follower
bracket assembly (both sides of the oven) –
See Fig.4-5. Additionally, when the door is
closed, the trailing arms should “snap” down
into position. To test this, gentle pick up one of
the trailing arms approximately ¾ inch and
release it. The trailing arm should “snap” back
down in to the same position each time. If it
hangs or does not return to the exact position
each time readjust the cam roller assembly.
12. If it is determine that a proper adjustment can
not be made, it may be necessary to reposition
the bottom hinge on the door. To do this,
loosen item 11 (see Figure 4.3) on both sides of
the oven. With all screws loose, close the door
and push in and down on the door. While doing
so, tighten all screws on the hinge. Now repeat
steps 8-11.

LIMIT SWITCH ADJUSTMENT PRIMARY AND
MONITOR
13. Actuator tab should be positioned as shown in
Figure 4-6. It should be parallel to the primary
switch lever. Adjust and bend (needle nose
pliers) actuator tab as necessary.
14. When the door is closed and the actuator tab is
in contact with the primary and monitor
switches the switches should both be closed.
The actuator tab should be in contact with the
switch paddles such that when the switches are
closed there is about 0.020” of clearance
between the switch paddles and the switch
bodies. Also, the actuator tab should be at or
close to horizontal and be positioned
approximately 3/16” from the end of the monitor
switch actuator tab. Adjust the interlock switch
brackets by loosening the screws as necessary.
See Figure 4.6.
15. Once the switches and actuator are properly
adjusted, as the door is opened the primary
switch should disengage before the monitor
switch.
LIMIT SWITCH ADJUSTMENT SECONDARY
16. Refer to steps 8, 9, 10, and 11 this page. The
trailing arm must be properly engaged in the
cam follower bracket assembly and the trailing
arm guide blocks.
17. Again, the actuator tab should be positioned as
shown in detail of Figure 4-6. Adjust and bend
(needle nose pliers) actuator tab as necessary.
18. When the door is closed, the actuator tab is in
contact with the secondary switch paddle and
the switch should be closed. There should be
approximately 0.020” of clearance between the
switch paddle and the switch body. Adjust the
limit switch bracket by loosening the screws as
necessary.
FINAL TESTING OF DOOR SWITCH
ADJUSTMENT:
19. After the door switch assemblies have been
properly aligned and adjusted on both sides,
confirm that with the door closed that all three
switch contacts are closed.
20. As the door is opened slowly confirm that all
three switches operate in the correct sequence,
i.e. as the door is opened the switches open in
the order of primary, secondary, and monitor .
21. As the door is slowly closed confirm the
switches close in the opposite order from
above.
22. If the sequencing is not correct, readjust switch
brackets and or associated hardware until all
criteria are met.
SWITCH TEST AT TEMPERATURE:
23. Reinstall main circuit breaker on din rail and
reattach wiring to bottom of circuit breaker.
24. Reattach left side trim piece and magnetron
plenum assembly.
25. Refit top cover and left and right side covers.
26. Plug the oven in and set the temperature to 525
8F and allow the oven to come up to
temperature and remain at temperature for 15
minutes.
27. Refer to section 3, page 3-3, and put the oven
into test mode. At the bottom left of the screen
are the letters p, s, and m. As the oven door is
slowly opened, the background of the letters will
light up indicating that the switches have
opened.
28. Slowly open and close the door to confirm the
proper sequence of the switches, p, s, m and
m, s, p respectively.
29. If the sequencing is not correct, remove the left
and right side covers and adjust the switch
brackets as necessary and retest the oven.
30. If the sequencing is correct, while in the test
mode refer to section 6-2 and perform the
microwave radiation leakage tests.

2) Remove the interlock actuator tabs (#3) and
front guide block assembly (#14) from both
sides of the oven. (See FIGURE 4-7.)
NOTE: The guide block assembly may or
may not contain guide block support shims.
Guide block assemblies should be re–installed in
the location they were removed from (i.e. right
guide block assembly re–installed on right side) to
prevent potential trailing arm binding.
3) Close the oven door and disconnect the
springs (#8 & #15) from both trailing arms
(#2).
4) Loosen but do not remove the nuts that hold
the cam follower assembly (#12) in position,
then rotate both assemblies down to vertical
orientation.
5) Remove the door:
a) Remove the four 10–32 (M5) UNF
Phillips screws (#11) from the door hinge
bar mounting brackets (#7) on both sides
of the oven.
b) Pull the door away from the oven, bottom
first, to slide the hinge bars (#14) out of
their slots. Use caution in removing the
door to avoid bending the hinge bars. If
the bars bind in their slots, gently wiggle
the door to free them.
c) Remove the door, guiding the hooked
portion of the trailing arm over the cam
follower rollers (#13).
DOOR INSTALLATION
6) Rotate cam follower assembly (#12) down to
vertical position to permit the trailing arms
(#2) to pass over the cam follower roller
(#11) in step 2.
7) Assemble the door to the oven:
Electrical Compartment
a) Slide the trailing arms through the upper
slots and over the rollers.
b) Slide the hinge bars (not shown) through
the lower slots. Use caution in installing
the door to avoid bending the hinge bars.
If the bars bind in their slots, gently
wiggle the door to free them.
c) Attach the bars to the door hinge bar
mounting brackets (#13) with four 10–32
(M5) UNF screws (#11) on each side
(finger tight). Apply 242 thread–locker to
screw threads prior to installation.
d) Close the door and apply even pressure
(approximately 15 to 20 pounds) to the
face of the door to squarely seat the door
shunt on the oven face. Continue to
apply this force while tightening the four
screws on each side (two people are
recommended).
8) Install the springs (#8) on each side between
the trailing arm and spring brackets – See
door switch adjustment section beginning on
page 4-7. Any interference between any
other component or wiring and the springs or
trailing arms must be corrected before
proceeding.
9) Install the front trailing arm guide blocks
(#14):
a) Assemble (per side) one spacer block,
two guide blocks, two spacers, and two
screws with lock–washers.
NOTE: The guide block assembly may or may
not contain guide block support shims. Guide
block assemblies should be re–installed in the
location they were removed from (i.e. right guide
block assembly re–installed on right side) to
prevent potential trailing arm binding
b) Install one guide block assembly over
each trailing arm and tighten screws.
10) Install the interlock actuator tabs (#3):
a) Open the door.
b) Attach the interlock actuator tabs to the
trailing arms with two 6–32 UNF (M3)

WARNING!!
At the first closing of the door verify that the
actuator tabs do not hit and bend on the
trailing arm guides block assemblies (#1 and
#14). Verify placement of the actuator tabs to
insure that the interlock switch levers do not
bottom out on the switch body (#6). If they do,
open the door and realign switch brackets
and or actuator tabs again checking for
interference with the guide as the door is
closed.
DOOR ADJUSTMENT
1) Adjust cam follower assembly (#12) to
tension the trailing arms (#2) to apply closing
pressure:
a) Close the door.
b) Rotate the cam follower assembly so that
the top of the trailing arm engages the
rear guide (#1) 0.125 inch (+0.125 -
0.031) above the top of the chamfered
lead in.
c) The cam follower assembly roller (#11)
should be located on the ramp portion of
the trailing arm with 0.020” to 0.050” gap
between the top of the roller and the
bottom of the trailing arm radius.
d) Tighten the cam follower bracket nuts.
2) Adjust the interlock switch brackets (#4) and
actuator tabs (#3):
NOTE: Refer to page 4-6 for the final door
switch adjustment. This adjustment is
completed after all door adjustment
steps have been completed.
3) Adjust the door pivot position for best
alignment by inspecting for the following
conditions:
a) Ideally, the microwave sealing planes
(the portions of the oven face and door
shunt that overlap each other) should
touch, since as the gap between the
sealing planes increases, it becomes
more likely that the microwave leakage
will increase. However, because of
manufacturing tolerances, the microwave
sealing planes of the door shunt and the
oven flange are not perfectly flat. The
best door alignment minimizes the gaps
between the sealing planes both top and
bottom.
c) If the hinge bars have not been pushed
NOTE: To correct B or C: Loosen the door
d) By design there is a 0.030” clearance
e) Repeat adjustment steps 1 and 2 as
4) Adjust the interlock switches per procedure
beginning on page 4-7.
5) After adjusting the interlock switches the
oven must be checked for microwave
leakage. Refer to the page 6-2 for
instructions and acceptable limits.
far into their brackets (#13), the lower
edge of the sealing planes will be tight
and there will be an excessive gap
between the sealing planes along the top
edge. In this position, with the top
molding removed, most of the hex head
of the shunt screws will be seen.
far enough into their brackets the upper
edge of the sealing planes will be tight
and an excessive gap will occur between
the sealing planes along the bottom
edge. This could permit excessive
microwave leakage along the bottom
edge.
hinge bar screws (#11) on both sides.
Close the door and apply even
pressure (approximately 15 to 20
pounds) to both sides of the door to
squarely seat the door shunt on the
oven face. Continue to apply this
force while tightening the four screws
on each side (two people are
recommended).
between the Phillips head screws
securing the plastic shunt cover and the
oven flange on the C3/AB and C3Multi.
The C3/C and C3/CMulti gap should be
0.060” (1.50 mm). Verify that one or
more of these screws does not contact
the oven flange and increase the gap
between the sealing planes. This
condition may be indicated by the head
of the screw(s) marking the oven flange.
If this is the case, the door may be
warped or the shunt may not be flat.
Adjust, repair, or replace the door so that
when the door shunt is seated squarely
none of the Phillips head screws contact

CATALYTIC CONVERTER
The catalytic converter (See Figure 5-1) is installed
in the return air duct behind the heater assembly.
The installation of the catalytic converter requires
a catalytic converter inner frame to properly
position it in the air path. The above parts may be
ordered in kit form.
Due to the nature of most foods and the physics
governing the operation of the C3 SERIES oven,
grease buildup downstream of the cooking
chamber is inevitable. Strict cleaning regiments
can solve a majority of the problems, however,
recirculation of undiluted greasy saturated air is
the main cause of downstream grease
accumulation and any associated residual flavors.
The airborne grease tends to collect and bake
onto the oven surface downstream of the cooking
chamber. This grease, due to the high operating
temperatures of the oven, will start to rapidly
decompose into derivative organic compounds.
These decompositional derivatives generally have
positive and negative effects on cooking; the
shorter chain derivatives add favorable flavor
characteristics to the food, while the higher order
carbon chains lend unpleasant flavor characteristics, such as bitter tarry tastes.
The installation of the catalytic converter greatly
effects the grease handling and any residual
flavors which might build up over time. A properly
operating catalytic converter causes the
conversion of airborne grease into water, carbon
dioxide and small amounts of nitrogen and
oxygen. The catalytic converter acts as a
combustion chamber for the airborne grease. The
catalysts present on the filter lowers the ignition
temperature of the airborne grease from
approximately 700ºF (371ºC) to 450–550ºF (232–
288ºC), allowing combustion to occur. The
operating temperature of the oven directly
determines the percentage of airborne grease
conversion. A single pass of the air stream yields a
20–30% improvement in air quality.
A problem with the catalytic converter is indicated
by a decrease in the effectiveness of browning
(caused by a reduction in airflow) or by flavor
transfer from one food group to another.
If you suspect the catalytic converter needs
cleaning refer to figures on page 5-3 and below.
These diagrams provide you with a location
reference and exploded view (Note: The Return
Air Duct Assembly Panel and the Terminal Heat
Shield may be inverted on some C3/AB units. All
C3/C units will have this assembly inverted). It is
important to carefully remove the insulation and
replace it neatly. The metal foil helps shield
microwave emissions.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The catalytic converter can be cleaned with
TurboCare→ oven cleaner and thoroughly rinsed
with DISTILLED water. Let the catalytic converter
air dry before reinstalling. IF TurboCare oven
cleaner is not available DO NOT SUBSTITUTEUSE DISTILLED WATER.

CONVECTION ELEMENT AND
THERMOCOUPLES
The convection element (See Figure 5-1) is
located in the rear back on the left side of the
oven. It is controlled by one or two solid-state
relays (K5 and K7), depending on model, located
in the top, center of the control compartment of
the oven. Each relay coil operates on 24VDC
which is supplied from the I/O control circuit
assembly. The temperature is referenced by two
“K” type thermocouples.
• The HX thermocouple is in the rear of the
oven by the catalytic converter.
• The CC thermocouple is located on the top
left side of the oven near the front by the
door.
To test the operation of the convection circuit, run
the oven in the test mode. See page 3-3 for Self
Test information. The element will not energize if
the convection motor is not running. You will
have to troubleshoot the convection motor and its
controller before continuing.
IMPORTANT HEATER DISCUSSION
The C series oven uses either an open coil or
sheathed heater. The open coil element is
obsolete, but may still be found in C3/AB ovens
and C3/C ovens. This heater is susceptible to
cleaners not approved by TurboChef. If this
heater fails, it should be replaced by the newer
sheathed heater (See Figure 5-3).
The sheathed heater consists of two individual
heating elements encased within one sheath;
therefore, when replacing the single–phase open
coil heater with this unit on the C3/AB or C3/C
you must wire the individual heaters in parallel
(See Figure 5-4). When wired correctly the total
resistance should be 12 ohms @ 240VAC (20
Amp draw). At 208 VAC the total resistance
should be 9 ohms (23 amps draw).
On the C3/AB and C3/C, only, one of the heater
wires to the hot air element is looped through an
inductance coil transformer on the I/O control
circuit assembly. It must draw a minimum current
of 7.5 amps to satisfy the circuit. If it does not, the
“H” status character on the Test Mode display will
be a reversed character.
If a thermocouple is open, the temperature will
read 999. The thermocouples are held in place
with a compression fitting using a lava gland.
Before replacing a thermocouple, inspect the 40
pin connector where the thermocouples plug into
Convection Circuit
the I/O control circuit assembly. It is possible you
just have a loose connection. Try unplugging and
reconnecting the 40 pin connector. When
replacing a defective thermocouple, it is
important to reinstall the new thermocouple so it
protrudes a specific distance inside the oven
cavity. See FIGURE 5-2.
Replace the thermocouple as follows:
1. Make a note where the old thermocouple
exited the compression fitting.
2. Measure the distance from the exit point to
the end of the thermocouple.
3. Mark this distance on your new thermocouple
with a marker or a piece of tape.
4. Install the new thermocouple

CONVECTION (BLOWER) MOTOR OPERATION
OVERVIEW
The convection (blower) motor is a variable
speed convection motor which operates from
zero rpms up to 7000 rpms. The blower motor
speed is controlled by a SP200 AC drive control.
This controller converts the 200V to 240V single
phase input to a variable 3 phase output
(230/460VAC). The speed is controlled by low
voltage inputs (0 to 10 VDC) which are applied to
pin #7 on the SP200 AC drive control from the
control circuit card. If the convection (blower)
If the convection (blower) motor is not
running:
1. Verify the plug connector on the top two pins
on terminal P3, on the control circuit board is
in place. See page 6-7.
2. Inspect the SP200 AC drive motor control.
The SP200 AC drive motor has a single LED.

MAGNETRON CIRCUIT
Microwave Circuit
Overview of a microwave circuit
The microwave circuit consists of a magnetron
and a voltage doubler circuit. The voltage doubler
consists of a special step–up transformer, a
capacitor, and a diode. See figure 6-2 for an
explanation of how the doubler works.
The magnetron transformer is a ferro-resonant
design which limits fault currents and minimizes

magnetron power changes due to input voltage
changes. An automatic resetting overtemperature switch is embedded in the high
voltage secondary winding and removes power
form the primary winding if an over-temperature
condition occurs.
In the C3 SERIES a separate transformer is used
to preheat the filament for the magnetron for
better operation.
