DOOR OPEN MECHANISM
1. The door release lever is pulled.
2. The upper latch head is lifted up by the linked door
release lever.
3. The head lever is lifted up by the door release lever.
4. The joint lever is lifted up by the head lever.
5. The lower latch head is lifted up by the joint lever.
6. Now both latch heads are lifted up, so they can be
released from the latch hook.
7. Now the door can be opened.

INTERLOCK SWITCHES SW1, SW2 AND STOP
SWITCH SW5
1. When the oven door is closed, the contacts COM-NO
must be closed.
2. When the oven door is opened, the contacts COM-NO
must be opened.
MONITOR SWITCHES SW3, SW4
The monitor switches SW3, SW4 are activated (the con-
tacts opened) the upper latch head and switch lever A
while the door is closed. The switch SW3 (or SW4) is
intended to render the oven inoperative by means of
blowing the fuse F1 F10A (or F2 F10A) when the contacts
of the interlock switch SW1 (or SW2) fail to open when the
door is opened.
Function
1. When the door is opened, the monitor switches SW3
+SW4 contacts close (to the ON condition) due to their
being normally closed. At this time the interlock switch
SW1+SW2 are in the OFF condition (contacts open)
due to their being normally open contact switches.
2. As the door goes to a closed position, the monitor
switches SW3+SW4 contacts are opened and inter-
lock switch SW1+SW2 contacts are closed (On open-
ing the door, each of these switches operate inversely.)
3. If the door is opened and the interlock switch SW1 (or
SW2) contacts fail to open, the fuse F1 F10A (or F2
F10A) blows simultaneously with closing of the monitor
switch SW3 (or SW4) contacts.
FUNCTION OF IMPORTANT COMPONENTS
CAUTION:BEFORE REPLACING A BLOWN FUSE F1
F10A (OR F2 F10A) TEST THE INTERLOCK
SWITCH SW1 (OR SW2) AND MONITOR
SWITCHE SW3 (OR SW4) FOR PROPER
OPERATION. (REFER TO CHAPTER “TEST
PROCEDURE”).
NOISE FILTER
The noise filter assembly prevents radio frequency inter-
ference that might flow back in the power circuit.
FUSES F1, F2 F10A 250V
1. If the wire harness or electrical components are short-
circuited, this fuse blows to prevent an electric shock or
fire hazard.
2. The fuse F1 F10A (or F2 F10A) also blows when
interlock switch SW1 (or SW2) remains closed with the
oven door open and when the monitor switches SW3
(or SW4) closes.
WEAK POINT F3
If the wire harness or electrical components make a short-
circuit, this weak point F3 blows to prevent an electric
shock or fire hazard.
HIGH VOLTAGE FUSE(S) F4, F5
The high voltage fuse blows when the high voltage rectifier
or the magnetron is shorted.
MAGNETRON TEMPERATURE FUSES TF1, TF2
The temperature fuses TF1, TF2 located on the top of the
upper and lower waveguide, are designed to prevent
damage to the magnetrons MG1, MG2. If an over heated
condition develops in the tube due to blower motor failure,
obstructed air ducts, dirty or blocked air intake, etc., the
circuit to the magnetrons are interrupted. Under normal
operation, the temperature fuses remains closed. How-
ever, when abnormally high temperatures are generated
within the magnetrons, the temperature fuses will open at
150˚C causing the microwave energy to stop. The defec-
tive temperature fuses must be replaced with new rated
ones.
EXHAUST TEMPERATURE FUSE TF3
The temperature fuse TF3, located on the side of the
exhaust duct assembly, is designed to prevent damage to
the oven by fire. If the food load is overcooked, by either
error in cook time or defect in the control unit, the tempera-
ture fuse will open. Under normal operation, the oven
temperature fuse remains closed. However, when abnor-
mally high temperatures are generated within the oven
cavity, the oven temperature fuse will open at 120˚C,
causing the oven to shut down. The defective temperature
fuse must be replaced with new rated one.
EXHAUST OVEN THERMISTOR TH3
The thermistor is a negative temperature coefficient type.
The temperature in the exhaust duct is detected through
the resistance of the thermistor.
If the temperature is high, the control panel will display
“EE7” and the oven will stop to avoid overheating and
