When checking the continuity of the witches or transformer, always make sure that the power is OFF, and one of the lead wires is disconnected. 18. Components that are critical for safety are indicated in the circuit diagram by shading, 19.

Disassembly &ReaAssembly 4-3-5 Reassembly Test After replacement of the defective component parts of the door, reassemble it and follow the instructions below for proper installation and adjustment so as to prevent an excessive microwave leakage. 1. When mounting the door to the oven, be sure to adjust the door parallel to the bottom line of the oven face plate by moving the upper hinge and lower hinge in the direction necessary for proper alignment.
5. Alignment and Adjustments PRECAUTION 1. High voltage is present at the high voltage terminal of the high voltage transformer during any cook cycle. 2. It is neither necessary nor advisable to attempt measurement of the high voltage. 3. Before touching any oven components, or wiring, always unplug the oven from its power source and discharge the high voltage capacitor.
Alignment and Adjustments 5-3 High Voltage Capacitor 1. Check continuity of the capacitor with meter set at the highest ohm scale. 2. Once the capacitor is charged, a normal capacitor shows continuity for a short time, and then indicates 10MΩ. 3.
Alignment and Adjustments 5-6 Output Power of Magnetron CAUTION MICROWAVE RADIATION PERSONNEL SHOULD NOT ALLOW EXPOSWRE TO MICROWAVE RADIATION FROM MICROWAVE GENERATOR OR OTHER PARTS CONDUCTING MICROWAVE ENERGY. The output power of the magnetron can be measured by performing a water temperature rise test. Equipment needed * Two 1-liter cylindrical borosilicate glass vessel (Outside diameter of 190mm) * One glass the rmometer with mercury column...
4) When measuring the leakage, always use the 2 inch spacer cone with the probe. Hold the probe perpendicular to the cabinet door. Place the KM2900M spacer cone of the probe on the door and/or cabinet door seam and move along the seam, the door viewing window and the exhaust openings moving the probe in a clockwise direction at a rate of 1 inch/sec.
6. Troubleshooting WARNING FOR HIGH VOLTAGE 4000 VOLTS EXIST AT THE HIGH VOLTAGE AREA. DO NOT OPERATE THE OVEN WITH CABINET PARTS REMOVED. DO NOT REMOVE THE CABINET PARTS IF THE POWER SUPPLY CORD IS PLUGGED IN THE WALL OUTLET. UNPLUG THE POWER CORD BEFORE SERVICING.
