INSTALLATION 1. Steady, flat location. This microwave oven should be set on a steady, flat surface. 2. Leave space behind and side. All air vents should be kept a clearance. If all vents are covered during operation, the oven may be overheated and, eventually, cause oven failure.
OPERATIONS AND FUNCTIONS 1. Connect the mains lead to an electrical outlet. 2. After placing the food in a suitable container, open the oven door and put it on the glass tray. The glass tray must always be in place during cooking. 3.
DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY Cautions to be observed when troubleshooting. Unlike many other appliances, the microwave oven is high-voltage, high-current equipment. It is completely safe during normal operation. However, carelessness in servicing the oven can result in an electric shock or possible danger from a short circuit. You are asked to observe the following precautions carefully.

INTERLOCK MECHANISM AND ADJUSTMENT The door lock mechanism is a device which has been specially designed to completely eliminate microwave radiation when the door is opened during operation, and thus to perfectly prevent the danger resulting from the leakage of microwave. WH/BK RD/RD BK/BL...
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE Following the procedure below to check if the oven is defective or not. 1. Check grounding before trouble checking. 2. Be careful of the high voltage circuit. 3. Discharge the high voltage capacitor. 4. When checking the continuity of the switches, fuse or high voltage transformer, disconnect one lead wire from these parts and check continuity with the AC plug removed.

MEASUREMENT AND TEST 1. MEASUREMENT OF THE MICROWAVE POWER OUTPUT Microwave output power can be checked by indirectly measuring the temperature rise of a certain amount of water exposed to the microwave as directed below. PROCEDURE 1. Microwave power output measurement is made with the microwave oven supplied at rated voltage and operated at its maximum microwave power setting with a load of 1000±5cc of potable water.
2. MICROWAVE RADIATION TEST CAUTION : 1. Make sure to check the microwave leakage before and after repair of adjustment. 2. Always start measuring of an unknown field to assure safety for operating personnel from microwave energy. 3. Do not place your hands into any suspected microwave radiation field unless the safe density level is known. 4.
3. COMPONENT TEST PROCEDURE • High voltage is present at the high voltage terminal of the high voltage transformer during any cooking cycle. • It is neither necessary nor advisable to attempt measurement of the high voltage. • Before touching any oven components or wiring, always unplug the oven from its power source and discharge the capacitor.
PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD 1. CIRCUIT CHECK PROCEDURE 1. Low Voltage Transformer check • The low voltage transformer is located on the P.C.B. • Measuring condition: input voltage : 120V/Frequency : 60Hz Terminal Voltage LOAD NO LOAD AC 25.8 V AC 28.4 V NOTE : 1.
