Door Replacement

Removal
1. from wal and remove outer case. (Refer to procedure
of "Removal of Oven from Wall" and "Outer case
Removal")
2. Open the door and block it open.
3. Discharge high voltage capacitor.
To discharge the high voltage capacitor, wait for 60
seconds and then short-circuit 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.
4. Remove the hood louver from the oven. (Refer to the
procedure of "Hood Louver Removal".)
5. Insert a putty knife (thickness of about 0.5mm) into
the gap A between the door stopper and the choke
cover as shown in Figure 4-9 to free engaging parts.
6. Lift up the door stopper.
7. Now, the door stopper is free from the door assembly.
8. Lift up the door assembly to release the upper and
lower door hinge pins from the upper and lower oven
hinges.
9. Now, the door assembly is free.
NOTE: When the individual parts are replaced, refer to
"Door Disassembly".
Re-Install
1. On re-installing door, insert the lower oven hinge to
lower door hinge pin.
2. Insert the upper oven hinge to the upper door hinge
pin.
3. Shut the door (close the contacts of interlock
switches).
4. Make sure upper and lower oven hinges are inserted
into the upper an lower door hinge pins.
5. Make sure the door is parallel with oven face lines
(left and upper side lines) and door latch heads pass
through latch holes correctly.
6. Re-install the door stopper to the door assembly.
7. Re-install the hood louver to the oven cavity front
face plate.
After any service to the door:
(A) Make sure that door sensing switch, primary
switch and secondary switch are operating
properly.
(B) An approved microwave survey meter should be
used to assure compliance with proper micro-
wave radiation emission limitation standards.
After any service, make sure of the following:
1. Door latch heads smoothly catch latch hook through
latch holes and that latch head goes through center
of latch hole.
2. Deviation of door alignment from horizontal line of
cavity face plate is to be less than 1.0mm.
3. Door is positioned with its face pressed toward cavity
face plate.
4. Check for microwave leakage around door with an
approved microwave survey meter.
(Refer to Microwave Measurement Procedure.)
The door on a microwave oven is designed to act
as an electronic seal preventing the leakage of
microwave energy from oven cavity during cook
cycle. This function does not require that door be
air-tight, moisture (condensation)-tight or light-
tight. Therefore, occasional appearance of mois-
ture, light or sensing of gentle warm air movement
around oven door is not abnormal and do not of
themselves indicate a leakage of microwave energy
from oven cavity.
