TEST PROCEDURES

 PROCEDURE 
 LETTER 

COMPONENT TEST  

Home fuse or circuit breaker blows  

when power cord is plugged into 

wall receptacle
Monitor fuse blows when power  

cord is plugged into wall recepta-

cle.
All letters and indicators do not  

appear in display when power cord 

is first plugged into wall outlet.
Display does not operate properly 

when STOP/CLEAR key is touched. 

(Buzzer  should  sound  and  ":" or time 

of day should appear in display.)
Oven lamp does not light when 

door  is opened.
Oven lamp does not go out when  

door is closed.
Oven lamp lights but fan motor 

and turntable motor do not oper-

ate.
Oven does not go into cook cycle  

when START pad is touched
Oven seems to be operating but  

little or no heat is produced in 

oven load. (Food incompletely 

cooked or not cooked at all at end 

of cook cycle.)
Oven goes into a cook cycle but 

extremely uneven heating is  

produced in oven load (food).
Oven does not cook properly 

when programmed for Cooking 

Power 5 mode. (Operates properly 

on Cooking Power 10 (HIGH) mode.)
Oven goes into COMPU DEFROST-

but food is not defrosted well.
AH sensor does not end during sen-

sor cooking condition.  (Oven does 

not shut off after a cup of water is 

boiling by sensor cooking)
Oven stops at 16 sec. after starting

OFF
