To remove the outer case, proceed as follows.
1.  Disconnect the power supply cord.
2.  Open the oven door and block it open.
3.  Remove the two (2) screws from the lower portion of 

the rear cabinet using a T20H Torx type or GTXH20-100 
screw driver.

4.  Remove the remaining two (2) screws from rear and four 

(4) screws along the right side of outer case.

5.  Slide the entire outer case back out about 1 inch (3 cm) 

to free it from retaining clips on the cavity face plate.

6.  Lift entire outer case from the unit.

result in severe, possibly fatal, electric shock.
(Example)
High Voltage  Capacitor,  Power Transformer,  Magnetron,  High Voltage  Rectifier  Assembly,    High Voltage  Harness 
etc..

WARNING: 

 Avoid possible exposure to microwave energy. Please follow the instructions below before operat-

ing the oven.

WARNING AGAINST HIGH VOLTAGE:

Microwave ovens contain circuitry capable of producing very high voltage and current, contact with following parts may 

OUTER CASE REMOVAL

COMPONENT REPLACEMENT AND ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE

To prevent an electric shock, take the following pre-
cautions.

1.  Before wiring, 

1)  Disconnect the power supply cord.
2)  Open the door block it open.
3)  Discharge the high voltage capacitor and wait for 60 

seconds.

2.  Don’t let the wire leads touch to the following parts;

1)  High voltage parts:
  Magnetron, High voltage transformer, High voltage 

capacitor and High voltage rectifier assembly.

2)  Hot parts:
  Oven lamp, Magnetron, High voltage transformer and 

Oven cavity.

WARNING FOR WIRING

1.  Disconnect the power supply cord.
2.  Make sure that a definite” click” can be heard when 

the microwave oven door is unlatched. (Hold the door 
in a closed position with one hand, then push the door 
open button with the other, this causes the latch leads 
to rise, it is then possible to hear a “click’ as the door 
switches operate.)

3.  Visually check the door and cavity face plate for damage 

(dents, cracks, signs of arcing etc.).

Carry  out  any  remedial  work  that  is  necessary  before 
operating the oven.
Do not operate the oven if any of the following conditions 
exist;

1.  Door does not close firmly.
2.  Door hinge, support or latch hook is damaged.
3.  The door gasket or seal is damaged.
4.  The door is bent or warped.
5.  There  are  defective  parts  in  the  door  interlock 

system.

6.  There are defective  parts in the microwave generating 

and transmission assembly.

7.  There is visible damage to the oven.

Do not operate the oven:
1.  Without the RF gasket (Magnetron).
2.  If the wave guide or oven cavity are not intact.
3.  If the door is not closed.
4.  If the outer case (cabinet) is not fitted.

3)  Sharp edge:
  Bottom  plate,  Oven  cavity,  Waveguide  flange, 

Chassis support and other metallic plate.

4)  Movable parts (to prevent a fault)

 

Fan blade, Fan motor, Switch, Switch lever, Open 
button.

3.  Do not catch the wire leads in the outer case cabinet.
4.  Insert the positive lock connector until its pin is locked 

and make sure that the wire leads do not  come off 
even if the wire leads are pulled.

5.  To prevent an error function, connect the wire leads 

correctly, referring to the Pictorial Diagram. 

Please refer to ‘OVEN PARTS, CABINET PARTS, CONTROL PANEL PARTS, DOOR PARTS’, when carrying out any of 
the following removal procedures:
