GENERAL

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Your safety and the safety of others is very important.

Important safety messages have been pro­vided in this Job Aid. Always read and obey all
safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.

This symbol alerts you to haz­ards that can kill or hurt you
and others.

All safety messages will be preceded by the
safety alert symbol and the word “WARNING.”

All safety messages will identify the hazard, tell
you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell
you what can happen if the instructions are not
followed.

WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

Disconnect power before servicing.

Replace all panels before operating.

Failure to do so could result in death or
electrical shock.

IMPORTANT SAFETY

INSTRUCTIONS

Before touching any oven component or wir­ing, always unplug the oven from its power
source and discharge the capacitor by using a
20,000 ohm discharge resistor or use an insu­lated plastic handle screwdriver to short across
the capacitor terminals.

Check that the unit is grounded before trouble­shooting. Be careful of the high voltage circuits.
Discharge any static charge from your body by
touching ground before handling any part of
the circuitry on the control board. Electrostatic
discharge may damage the control circuit.

Do not touch oven components or wiring during
operation. Attach meter leads with alligator
clips when making operational tests.

For continued protection against radiation
emission, replace only with these types of
switches: Primary (Interlock) Switch: SZM-V16­FA-63 or VP-533A-OF; Secondary (Interlock)
Switch: SZM-V01-FA-32; Interlock (Monitor)
Switch: SZM-VI6-FA-62 or VP-532A-OF; Oven
Lamp Switch: SZM-V6-FA-31 or VP-331 A­OD.

It is neither necessary nor advisable to attempt
measurement of high voltage.

Attaching the adaptor ground terminal to the
wall receptacle cover screw does not ground
the appliance unless the cover screw is metal
and not insulated and the wall receptacle is
grounded through the house wiring.

ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE

(ESD) SENSITIVE ELECTRONICS

ESD problems are present everywhere. ESD
may damage or weaken the electronic con­trol assembly. The new control assembly
may appear to work well after repair is fin­ished, but failure may occur at a later date
due to ESD stress.

• Use an antistatic wrist strap. Connect
the wrist strap to a green ground con­nection point or unpainted metal in the
appliance; or touch your finger repeat­edly to a green ground connection point
or unpainted metal in the appliance.

• Before removing the part from its pack­age, touch the antistatic bag to a green
ground connection point or unpainted
metal in the appliance.

• Avoid touching electronic parts or ter­minal contacts. Handle the electronic
control assembly by the edges only.

• When repackaging the failed electronic
control assembly in an antistatic bag,
observe the above instructions.

1-1

WARNING TO SERVICE TECHNICIANS

To avoid possible exposure to microwave ra­diation or energy, visually check the oven for
damage to the door and door seal before
operating any oven. Use a microwave survey
meter to check the amount of leakage before
servicing. In the event the R.F. Ieakage ex­ceeds 4 mw/cm2 at 5 cm, appropriate repair
must be made before continuing to service the
unit. Check interlock function by operating the
door latch. The oven cook cycle should cut off
before the door can be opened.

The door and latching assembly contains the
radio frequency energy within the oven. The
door is protected by three safety interlock
switches. Do not attempt to defeat them.

Under no circumstances should you try to
operate the oven with the door open.

• Proper operation of microwave ovens re­quires that the magnetron be properly
assembled to the waveguide and cavity.
Never operate the magnetron unless it is
properly installed.

• Be sure the “RF” seal is not damaged and
is assembled around the magnetron dome
properly when installing the magnetron.

• Routine service safety procedures should
be exercised at all times.

• Untrained personnel should not attempt
service without a thorough review of test
procedures and safety information con­tained in this Job Aid.

Whirlpool microwave ovens have a monitoring
system designed to assure proper operation of
the safety interlock systems.

The interlock monitor switch will immediately
cause the oven fuse to blow if the door is
opened and the primary door interlock switch
and/or the secondary interlock switch contacts
fail in a closed position.

CAUTION: Replace a blown fuse with a 20
ampere class H fuse only.

Test the upper and lower door interlock
switches, cook relay and interlock monitor
switch (middle switch) for proper operation as
described in the component test procedures,
before replacing the blown oven fuse.

Do not attempt to repair sticking contacts
of any interlock switch, safety switch, or
Cook (Latch) relay. The components must
be replaced.

Any indication of sticking contacts during com­ponent tests requires replacement of that com­ponent to assure reliability of the safety inter­lock system.

If the fuse is blown, the Monitor, Primary,
and Secondary interlock switches must be
replaced. Be sure they are properly con­nected.

1-2

PRECAUTIONS TO BE OBSERVED BEFORE AND DURING

SERVICING TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE

TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY

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 the microwave power

for any service test or inspection within the
microwave generating components, 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, using procedures described in
this Job Aid, before the oven is released to
the owner.

E. A microwave leakage check to verify com-

pliance with Federal Performance Stan­dard should be performed on each oven
prior to release to the owner.

F. Do not attempt to operate the oven if the

door glass is broken.

1-3

R.F. LEAKAGE TEST

EQUIPMENT

• Electromagnetic energy leakage monitor
(NARDA 81 00B, HOLADAY H 1501 ).

• 275 ±15 ML glass beaker.

TEST

On every service call, checks for microwave
energy emission must be made according to
the following manner.

1. Remove the cooking rack from the oven

cavity, if the microwave oven is so
equipped.

2. Place a 275 ±15 ML (9.3 oz.) glass of

water in the center of the oven bottom.

3. Select "HIGH" cook power, turn the micro-

wave oven on, and test for R.F. Ieakage at
the following locations:

a)Around the cabinet at the front.
b)Around the door.
c) Across the console panel.
d)Horizontally across the door.
e)Vertically across the door.
f) Diagonally across the door.
g)Across the air vents.
h)Across the rear air vent.
i) All lockseams.
j) Weld at bottom.
k) Bottom plate.
I) Oven feet.

4. The scan speed is one inch per second.

When checking for R.F. Ieakage, use an ap­proved R.F. measuring device to assure less
than 4 mw/cm2 emission at 5 cm distance with
a maximum scan rate of 2.54 cm/second, in
compliance with U.S. Government Department
of Health, Education and Welfare 21CFR1030,
performance Standard for Microwave Ovens.

NOTE: Enter leakage readings in space BE­FORE and AFTER on the service document.

All microwave ovens exceeding the emission
level of 4 mw/cm2 must be reported to Dept. of
Service for microwave ovens immediately and
the owner should be told not to use the micro­wave oven until it has been repaired com­pletely.

If a microwave oven is found to operate with the
door open, report to Dept. of Service, the
manufacturer and CDRH* immediately. Also
tell the owner not to use the oven.

The interlock monitor switch acts as the final
safety switch protecting the customer from
microwave radiation. If the interlock monitor
switch operated to blow the fuse when the
interlocks failed, you must replace all interlock
switches with new ones, because the contacts
of those interlock switches may be melted and
welded together.

If safety interlock/monitor switch replacement,
or adjustment, is required, you must reconnect
the circuit, and perform a continuity check on
the monitor circuit.

All repairs must be performed in such a manner
that microwave energy emissions are minimal.

Address for CDRH is:

Office of Compliance (HFZ-342) Center for
Devices and Radiological Health
2098 Gaither Road
Rockville, MD 20850

* CDRH: Center for Devices and Radiological Health,

Food and Drug Administration.

A properly operating door and seal assembly
will normally register small emissions, but they
must be no greater than 4 mw/cm2 to allow for
measurement uncertainty.
