1.  Remove outer case wrapper with caution not to damage

components on circuit board.

2.  Remove the 4 bolts securing hinges to oven cavity.

3.  Remove door from oven.

4.  Position new door on oven.

5.  Loosely install 4 door hinge bolts.

6.  With .060” (1.52 mm) shim on hinge side and .030”

(.76 mm) shim on latch side, (taped as shown)
close the door and apply light pressure on the
hinge side of the door toward the oven cavity and
tighten 4 door hinge bolts.

7.  Remove shim on hinge side of door only.

8.  Open and close door, observing switch

activation. Door is properly adjusted when
primary and secondary switch plungers
are fully depressed with the door closed.

9.  If switch requires adjustment:

  Open oven door

  Loosen switch mounting screws

  Position interlock switch assembly all

the way towards the front of the oven

  Tighten interlock switch mounting screws

  Close door and verify all switches are activated

10.  Remove shim from latch side of inner door.

11.  Re-check switch activation.

12.  Reinstall outer case wrapper with caution

not to damage components on circuit
board.

13.  Perform RF leakage test.
