WARNING TO SERVICE PERSONNEL
Microwave ovens contain circuitry capable of pro-
ducing very high voltage and current, contact with
following parts
may result in a severe, possibly
fatal, electrical shock.
(Example)
High Voltage Capacitor, High Voltage Power Trans-
former, Magnetron, High Voltage Rectifier Assem-
bly, High Voltage Harness etc..
Read the Service Manual carefully and follow all
instructions.
Before Servicing
1. Disconnect the power supply cord , and then remove
outer case.
2. Open the door and block it open.
3. Discharge two high voltage capacitors.

VOLTAGE CAPACITORS BEFORE
SERVICING.
The high-voltage capacitors remain charged about 60 sec-
onds after the oven has been switched off. Wait for 60
seconds and then short-circuit the connection of the high-
voltage capacitors (that are the connecting lead of the high-
voltage rectifiers) against the chassis with the use of an
insulated screwdriver.
Whenever troubleshooting is performed the power supply
must be disconnected. It may, in some cases, be necessary to
connect the power supply after the outer case has been
removed, in this event,
1. Disconnect the power supply cord, and then remove outer
case.
2. Open the door and block it open.
3. Discharge two high voltage capacitors.
4. Disconnect the leads to the primary of the power transformer.
5. Ensure that the leads remain isolated from other components
and oven chassis by using insulation tape.
6. After that procedure, reconnect the power supply cord.
When the testing is completed,
1. Disconnect the power supply cord, and then remove outer
case.
2. Open the door and block it open.
3. Discharge two high voltage capacitors.
4. Reconnect the leads to the primary of the power transformer.
5. Reinstall the outer case (cabinet).
6. Reconnect the power supply cord after the outer case is
installed.
7. Run the oven and check all functions.
After repairing
1. Reconnect all leads removed from components during
testing.
2. Reinstall the outer case (cabinet).
3. Reconnect the power supply cord after the outer case is
installed.
4. Run the oven and check all functions.
Microwave ovens should not be run empty. To test for the
presence of microwave energy within a cavity, place a cup of
cold water on the oven turntable, close the door and set the
power to HIGH and set the microwave timer for two (2) minutes.
When the two minutes has elapsed (timer at zero) carefully
check that the water is now hot. If the water remains cold carry

procedure and re-examine the connec-
tions to the component being tested.
When all service work is completed and the oven is fully
assembled, the microwave power output should be checked
and microwave leakage test should be carried out.
