Turntable Motor; Cooling Fan Motor; Hood Fan Motor; Thermostat (60°C On) - Electrolux EI30SM55JB Technical & Service Manual

Operation

TURNTABLE MOTOR

The turntable motor rotates the turntable located on
the bottom of the oven cavity, so that the foods on the
turntable cook evenly during cooking. Turntable will turn
in either direction. The turntable motor can be turned off
by touching TURNTABLE ON/OFF pad.

COOLING FAN MOTOR

The cooling fan motor drives a blade which draws
external cool air. This cool air is directed through the
air vanes surrounding the magnetron and cools the
magnetron. This air is channelled through the oven
cavity to remove steam and vapors given off from the
heating foods. It is then exhausted through the exhaust-
ing air vents at the oven cavity.

HOOD FAN MOTOR

The hood fan motor is a three-speed, single-phase,
double pole induction type, requiring a hood fan capaci-
tor. It is located outside the upper rear part of the oven
cavity, is to remove, from around the oven, hot air rising
from the conventional electric or gas range over which it
is installed. This air is then expelled either vertically or
horizontally through the customer supplied duct system,
or discharged back into the kitchen. The automatically
operation is medium speed. The manual operation is a
three speed (Low/ Mid/ High).
THERMOSTAT (60°C ON)
This thermostat is located on the right base plate. It is
designed to automatically turn on the hood fan motor
whenever the hot air rising from the conventional range
below causes the temperature at the thermostat to rise
to 140°F (60°C) or higher, thus removing this hot air from
around microwave oven. When the temperature around
the thermostat drops to 113°F (45°C) or lower, the
thermostat shuts off the hood fan motor.
THERMOSTAT (70°C OFF)
This thermostat is located on the right base plate. It is
designed to automatically cut off power to the hood fan
low speed terminal whenever the hot air rising from the
conventional range below causes the temperature at the
thermostat to rise to 158°F (70°C) or higher, thus
removing this hot air from around microwave oven.
When the temperature around the thermostat drops to
131°F (55°C) or lower, the thermostat supplies power to
the hood fan low speed terminal.

ANTENNA MOTOR

The antenna motor drives the stirrer antenna to stir the
microwave radiation from the waveguide.

HOOD LAMP

The hood lamps are mounted at the hood lamp angle on
the base cover. Touch the Light pad once for high, twice
for medium, three times for low and four times to turn off
the light.
