COMPONENT TEST PROCEDURE

CAUTIONS

1. DISCONNECT THE POWER SUPPLY CORD FROM THE OUTLET WHENEVER REMOVING THE

OUTER CASE FROM THE UNIT. PROCEED WITH THE TEST ONLY AFTER DISCHARGING THE HIGH
VOLTAGE CAPACITOR AND REMOVING THE WIRE LEADS FROM THE PRIMARY WINDING OF THE
HIGH VOLTAGE TRANSFORMER. (SEE PAGE 2-1)

2. ALL OPERATIONAL CHECKS WITH MICROWAVE ENERGY MUST BE DONE WITH A LOAD (1 LITER

OF WATER IN CONTAINER) IN THE OVEN.
