DOOR SENSING SWITCH, PRIMARY INTERLOCK SWITCH, AND MONITOR SWITCH ADJUSTMENT
1. Disconnect the power supply cord and remove the oven
from wall 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.
4. Remove the control panel assembly, referring to the
procedure of "CONTROL PANEL ASSEMBLY ,
CONTROL UNIT AND KEY UNIT REMOVAL".
If the door sensing switch, primary interlock switch and
monitor switch do not operate properly due to a
misadjustment, the following adjustment should be made.
5. Loosen the two (2) screws holding latch hook to the oven
cavity front flange.
6. With door closed, adjust latch hook by moving it back
and forth, and up and down. In and out play of the door
allowed by the upper and lower position of the latch hook
should be less than 0.5mm. The vertical position of the
latch hook should be adjusted so that the door sensing
switch, secondary interlock switch are activated with the
door closed. The horizontal position of the latch hook
should be adjusted so that the monitor switch is activated
with the door closed.
7. Secure the screws with washers firmly.
8. Check all of the switches operation. If any switch has not
activated with the door closed, loosen screw and adjust
the latch hook position.
After adjustment, check the following.
1. In and out play of door remains less than 0.5mm when in
DOOR ASSEMBLY REMOVAL

4. The contact of door sensing switch and primary interlock
switch open within 1.2mm gap between right side of cavity
face plate and door when door is open.
5. Re-install outer case and check for microwave leakage
around door with an approved microwave survey meter.
(Refer to Microwave Measurement Procedure.)

radiation emission limitation standards.
After any servicing, 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.
