6. CAUTIONS TO BE OBSERVED WHEN
TROUBLESHOOTING
Unlike many other appliances, the microwave oven is high-voltage, high-current equipment.
Though it is free from danger in ordinary use, extreme care should be taken during repair.
CAUTION
Servicemen should remove their watches
whenever working close to or replacing the
magnetron.
6.1. Check the grounding
Do not operate on a 2-wire extension cord. The microwave oven is designed to be grounded
when used. It is imperative, therefore, to make sure it is grounded properly before beginning
repair work.
6.2. Warning about the electric charge in the high voltage capacitor
For about 30 seconds after the oven is turned off, an electric charge remains in the high voltage
capacitor.When replacing or checking parts, remove the power plug from the outlet and short
the terminal of the high voltage capacitor (terminal of lead wire from diode) to chassis ground
with an insulated handle screwdriver to discharge.
