CAUTION

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

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; (1) Interlock
operation, (2) proper door closing, (3) seal and sealing surfaces (arcing, wear, and
other damage), (4) damage to or loosening of hinges and latches, (5) evidence of
dropping or abuse.

c. Before turning on microwave power for any service test or inspection within the

microwave generating compartments, check the magnetron, wave guide or
transmission line, and cavity for proper alignment, integrity, and connections.

d. Any defective or misadjusted components in the interlock, monitor, door seal, and

microwave generation and transmission systems shall be repaired, replaced, or
adjusted by procedures described in this manual before the oven is released to the
owner.

e. A Microwave leakage check to verify compliance with the CSA Standard should be

performed on each oven prior to release to the owner.

• 

Proper operation of the microwave ovens requires that the magnetron be assembled to the
wave guide and cavity. Never operate the magnetron unless it is properly installed.

• 

Be sure that the magnetron gasket is properly installed around the dome of the tube whenever
installing the magnetron.

• 

Routine service safety procedures should be exercised at all times.

• 

Untrained personnel should not attempt service without a thorough review of the test
procedures and safety information contained in this manual.
