Note: After any service to the door;
(A) Make sure that the monitor switch, monitored
latch switch and stop switch are operating prop-
erly. (Refer to chapter "Test Procedures".).
(B) An approved microwave survey meter should be
used to assure compliance with proper micro-
wave radiation emission limitation standards. (Re-
fer to Microwave Measurement Procedure.)
After any service, make sure of the following :
1. Door latch heads smoothly catch latch hook through
latch holes and that latch head goes through centre of
latch hole.
2. Deviation of door alignment from horizontal line of
cavity face plate is to be less than 1.0mm.
3. Door is positioned with its face pressed toward cavity
face plate.
4. Check for microwave leakage around door with an
approved microwave survey meter. (Refer to Micro-
wave Measurement Procedure.)
Note:
The door on a microwave oven is designed to act
as an electronic seal preventing the leakage of
microwave energy from oven cavity during cook
cycle. This function does not require that door be
air-tight, moisture (condensation)-tight or light-
tight. Therefore, occasional appearance of mois-
ture, light or sensing of gentle warm air movement
around oven door is not abnormal and do not of
themselves, indicate a leakage of microwave en-
ergy from oven cavity.
