CAUTION WARNING TO SERVICE TECHNICIANS PRECAUTIONS TO BE OBSERVED BEFORE AND DURING SERVICING TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY a. Do not operate or allow the oven to be operated with the door open. b. Make the following safety checks on all ovens to be serviced before activating the magnetron or other microwave source, and make repairs as necessary;...
FOREWORD Read this Manual carefully. Failure to adhere to or observe the information in this Manual may result in exposing yourself to the Microwave Energy normally contained within the oven cavity. TABLE OF CONTENTS (Page) SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ........................Inside front page SPECIFICATIONS ..............................
CAUTIONS Unlike other appliances, the microwave oven is MICROWAVE RADIATION high-voltage and high-current equipment. Personnel should not be exposed to the Though it is free from danger in ordinary use, microwave energy which may radiate from the extreme care should be taken during repair. magnetron or other microwave generating device if it is improperly used or connection.
INSTALLATIONS BEFORE YOU BEGIN, READ THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS COMPLETELY AND CAREFULLY. PRECAUTIONS ON INSTALLATION A. Plug the power supply cord into a 120V AC, 60Hz, single-phase power source with a capacity of at least 20 amperes. B. Avoid placing the unit in a location where there is direct heat or splashing water.

MEASUREMENT WITH THE OUTSIDE CASE NOTE WHEN MEASURING REMOVED (1) Do not exceed meter full scale deflection. (2) The test probe must be removed no faster than (1) When you replace the magnetron, measure for 1 inch/sec (2.5cm/sec)along the shaded area, microwave energy leakage before the outer case otherwise a false reading may result.
DISASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANT NOTES: (4) Remove 4 screws securing the circuit board. UNIT MUST BE DISCONNECTED FROM ELEC- TRICAL OUTLET WHEN MAKING REPAIRS, RE- PLACEMENTS, ADJUSTMENTS AND CONTIN- UITY CHECKS. WAIT AT LEAST ONE MINUTE, UNTIL THE HIGH VOLTAGE CAPACITOR IN THE Circuit Board HIGH VOLTAGE POWER SUPPLY HAS FULLY DISCHARGED.
