    CAUTIONS Unlike other appliances, the microwave oven MICROWAVE RADIATION is high-voltage and high-current equipment. Though it is free from danger in ordinary use, Personnel should not be exposed to the extreme care should be taken during repair. microwave energy which may radiate from the magnetron or other microwave generating device if it is improperly used or connection.
  • Page 5: The Heating Principle Of Microwave

    THE HEATING PRINCIPLE OF MICROWAVE Microwave is one kind of radio wave whose wave length is very short, frequency is very high. Therefore, it is called ultrahigh frequency electromagnetic wave. Microwave can heat food mainly result in the mutual affect of the food in the microwave field and microwave field itself.

    INSTALLATIONS BEFORE YOU BEGIN, READ THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS COMPLETELY INSTALLING EARTHING INSTRUCTIONS 1. Empty the microwave oven and clean inside it with This microwave oven is designed to be used in a fully a soft, damp cloth. Check for damage such as earthed condition.
  • Page 8: Circuit Description

    CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION As the door is closed, the contact of MONITOR • 3.2 volts AC is generated from the filament winding of SWITCH opens. This switch creates the short circuit to the high voltage transformer. This 3.2 volts is applied blow fuse during operation under abnormal condition.

    MEASUREMENT WITH OUTER CASE NOTES WHEN MEASURING REMOVED • Do not exceed meter full scale deflection. • When you replace the magnetron, measure for • The test probe must be removed no faster than microwave energy leakage before the outer case is 1 inch/sec (2.5 cm/sec) along the shaded area, installed and after all necessary components are otherwise a false reading may result.
  • Page 11: Measurement Of Microwave Power Output

    MEASUREMENT OF MICROWAVE POWER OUTPUT • Microwave power output measurement is made with • The microwave power output P in watts is the microwave oven supplied at its rated voltage and calculated operated at its maximum microwave power setting with approximately from the following formula : a load of (1000±5) g of potable water.
  • Page 12: Trouble Shooting Procedures

    TROUBLE SHOOTING PROCEDURES Before overhauling a microwave oven, you should judge the breakdown and the cause correctly, then you can repair it with corresponding ways. The overhauling must be proceed in order, any hasty conclusion is not recommendable, otherwise overworking would be done when repair. The microwave oven may occur compound breakdown due to all kinds of different reasons, thus, when overhaul, they all should be taken into consideration.
  • Page 13 Examine when the oven at operating, but the food can’t be heated Pull out the power plug, take off the outer case, discharge the capacitor, measure the resistance value of the primary winding and the secondary winding of the transformer with a multi meter (FIG.5-3 and FIG.5-4). The resistance value of the primary winding should be about 2.2 ohm, the secondary winding should be about 130 ohm, otherwise, it indicates the transformer has broken, and should be replaced by a new one.
  • Page 14 FIG5.10 FIG.5-9 Ⅲ.REPAIRING METHOD OF SEVERAL BREAKDOWN Repair when there occurred large amounts microwave leakage. There are many factors, which may cause microwave leaking. Following mentioned may be the main cause of microwave leakage: (1) The door deformed, the hinge loosed or damaged that caused the door can not close tightly. (2) The door pressing cover or the embed piece damaged or come off.
  • Page 15 Means of repair when the oven can heat, but the turntable glass can’t move Firstly, check whether the turntable holder is placed correctly. If it is correct, then pull out the power plug and take down the turntable combination, measure the resistance value of the turntable motor with Rx1k grade of a multi meter If it is open- circuited, it indicates the turntable motor has broken, and should be replaced by a new, same model one.

    IMPORTANT THINGS TO DO PRIOR TO CRITICAL PART SERVICING The following instructions are CRITICAL to the owner’s safety. Be sure to follow all the instructions. Contact the manufacturer of distributor if you have any question. If the oven is operative prior to servicing a Microwave Leakage Test (Microwave Emission Check) should be performed prior to servicing the oven.
  • Page 19: Safety Checks And Tests After Serving

    SAFETY CHECKS AND TESTS AFTER SERVING Constructional Checks If mechanical or electrical(electronic) parts have been replaced be sure to follow the following steps. Check for correct wiring, adequate mechanical decrements of parts, and firm connectors. Check for adequate grounding. Check the following items before turning the oven ON. Proper door closing, seal/choke surfaces, and hinges.
