Measurements in practice

Measurements and repairs – Important notes!!!
Precautionary measures have to be made before and
during a repair to prevent that the after-sales technician is
possibly exposed to microwave energy.
*Never put the oven into operation with an open door!
*Before putting an oven to be repaired into operation, carry
out the previous safety tests.
Locking behaviour of the door – sealings and surfaces –
hinges and lock bolts – mechanical (foreign) interventions
from the outside.
In case of measurements or repairs:
PULL THE MAINS PLUG!!!
By all means discharge the high-voltage capacitor before.
This must be made by suitable lines with isolated peaks.
With every microwave oven it is necessary to carry out a
high frequency leakage check (measurement of leaky rays)
and the checking according to VDE 0701 after a repair (the
mere opening of the oven is also a repair).
Microwave ovens must only be repaired by technicians who
are correspondingly trained and informed and who have the
required tools, measuring instruments and technical
documents.
