unit de-energizing the relay (RY4) and opening the
circuit to the damper motor.
3. The coil of heater relay (RY3) is energized by the CPU
unit and the main supply voltage is added to the
convection heater.
4. When the oven temperature reaches the selected
preheat temperature, the following operations occur:
4-1. The heater relay (RY3) is de-energized by the CPU
unit temperature circuit and thermistor, opening the
circuit to the convection heater.
4-2. The oven will continue to function for 30 minutes,
turning the convection heater on and off, as needed
to maintain the selected preheat temperature. The
oven will shut-down completely after 30 minutes.
CONVECTION COOKING CONDITION
When the preheat temperature is reached, a beep signal
will sound indicating that the holding temperature has
been reached in the oven cavity. Open the door and place
the food to be cooked in the oven. Press the CONVEC-
TION pad and then enter the cooking temperature by
pressing the temperature pad. And then enter the cooking
time by pressing the NUMBER pads. When the START
pad is touched, the following operations occur:
1. The numbers of the digital read-out start the count
down to zero.
2. The oven lamp, turntable motor, cooling fan motor and
convection motor are energized.
3. Heater relay (RY3) is energized (if the cavity temperature
is lower than the selected temperature) and the main
supply voltage is applied to the convection heater to
return to the selected cooking temperature.
4. Upon completion of the cooking time, the audible
signal will sound, and oven lamp, turntable motor,
cooling fan motor and convection motor are de-
energized. At the end of the convection cycle, if the
cavity air temperature is above 116˚C, the circuit to
(RY6) will be maintained (by the thermistor circuit) to
continue operation of the cooling fan motor until the
temperature drops below 116˚C, at which time the
relay will be de-energized, turning off the fan motor.
Relay (RY5) will however, open as soon as the
convection cycle has ended, turning off the convection
fan motor. This will now cool and allow the damper door
to open.
5. At the end of the convection cook cycle, shut-off relay
(RY4) is energized turning on the damper motor. The
damper is returned to the open position, closing the
damper switch contacts which send a signal to the
control unit, de-energizing shut-off relay (RY4).
AUTOMATIC MIX COOKING CONDITION
Choose the LOW MIX or HIGH MIX by pressing the LOW
MIX pad or HIGH MIX pad. And then enter cooking time by
pressing the NUMBER pads. When the START pad is
touched, the following operations occur:
1. The numbers of the digital read-out start the count
down to zero.
2. The shut-off relay (RY1+RY5+RY6) energized, turning
on the oven lamp, turntable motor, cooling fan motor
and convection motor.
3. The shut-off relay (RY4) is energized.
The damper door is closed from the open position.
4. The heater relay (RY3) is energized, adding the mains
supply voltage to the convection heater.
5. Now, the oven is in the convection cooking condition.
6. When the oven temperature reaches the selected
temperature, the following operations occur:
6-1. The power supply voltage is added to the convection
heater and power transformer alternately.
6-2. The convection heater operates through the heater
relay (RY3) contacts and the power transformer
operates through the cook relay (RY2) contacts.
6-3. These are operated by the CPU unit to supply
alternately within a 48 second time base, convection
heat and microwave energy.
The relationship between the convection and microwave
power operations are as follows.
Note:
The ON and OFF time ratio does not correspond
with the percentage of microwave power, because
approx. 2 seconds are needed for heating of the
magnetron filament.

ABSOLUTE HUMIDITY SENSOR (AH SENSOR)
COOKING CONDITION
In case where the AH sensor is used (REHEAT SENSOR
or SENSOR INSTANT ACTION), the foods are cooked in
microwave cooking mode without figuring time, power
level or quantity. When the oven senses enough steam
from the food, it relays the information to its microproces-
sor which will calculate the remaining cooking time and
power level needed for best results. When the food is
cooked, water vapour is developed. The sensor “senses”
the vapour and its resistance increases gradually. When
the resistance reaches the value set according to the
menu, supplementary cooking is started. The time of
supplementary cooking is determined by experiment with
each food category and inputted into the LSI.
An example of how sensor works:
1. Potatoes at room temperature. Vapour is emitted very
slowly.
