R-820BW
The following test procedure should be carried out with the microwave oven is a fully assembled
condition (outer case fitted).
It is difficult to measure the exact temperature in the convection oven. An accurate thermocouple type
temperature tester must be used. A low priced bi-metal type thermometer is not reliable or accurate.
The temperature should be checked with outer case cabinet installed, approx. 5 minutes after preheat
temperature is reached (audible signal sounds four times). The temperature experienced may be
approx. 30˚F more or less than indicated on the display, however, in most cases the food cooking results
will be satisfactory.
Difference in power supply voltage will also affect the oven temperature. The Household power supply
voltage may sometimes become lower than the rated voltage (120 V) and cause under-cooking. If the
power supply voltage is 10% lower than the rated voltage, longer cooking time is required by 10% to 20%.

THERMISTOR TEST
1. Disconnect the power supply cord, and then remove outer case.
2. Open the door and block it open.
3. Discharge high voltage capacitor.
4. Disconnect connector-D from the control unit. Measure the resistance of the thermistor with an
ohmmeter. Connect the ohmmeter leads to Pin No’s D1 and D3.

6. Reconnect all leads removed from components during testing.
7. Reinstall the outer case (cabinet).
8. Reconnect the power supply cord after the outer case is installed.
9. Run the oven and check all functions.

TOUCH CONTROL PANEL ASSEMBLY TEST
The touch control panel consists of circuits including semiconductors such as LSI, ICs, etc. Therefore,
unlike conventional microwave ovens, proper maintenance cannot be performed with only a voltmeter
and ohmmeter.
In this service manual, the touch control panel assembly is divided into two units, Control Unit and Key
Unit, and also the Control Unit is divided into two units, CPU Unit and Power Unit, and troubleshooting
by unit replacement is described according to the symptoms indicated.
Before testing,
1) Disconnect the power supply cord, and then remove outer case.
2) Open the door and block it open.
3) Discharge high voltage capacitor.
4) Disconnect the leads to the primary of the power transformer.
5) Ensure that these leads remain isolated from other components and oven chassis by using
insulation tape.
6) After that procedure, re-connect the power supply cord.
1. Key Unit.
NOTE ;
1) Disconnect the power supply cord, and then remove outer case.
2) Open the door and block it open.
3) Discharge high voltage capacitor.
4) Check key unit ribbon connection before replacement.
5) Reconnect all leads removed from components during testing.
