DESCRIPTION AND FUNCTION OF COMPONENTS
3. If the door is opened, and the secondary interlock relay
(RY2)and primary interlock switch contacts failtoopen,
themonitorfuseblowssimultaneouslywithclosingofthe
monitor switch contacts.
CAUTION: BEFORE REPLACING A BLOWN MONITOR
FUSE TEST THE DOOR SENSING SWITCH,
SECONDARY INTERLOCK RELAY (RY2),
RELAY(RY1),PRIMARYINTERLOCKSWITCH
AND MONITOR SWITCH FOR PROPER OP-
ERATION.(REFERTOCHAPTER"TESTPRO-
CEDURE").

AS AN ASSEMBLY
TEMPERATURE FUSE (MG)
The temperature fuse located on the fan duct assembly is
designed to prevent damage to the magnetron if an over
heated condition develops in the tube due to cooling fan
failure, obstructed air guide, dirty or blocked air intake, etc.
Undernormaloperation,thetemperaturefuseremainsclosed.
However,thetemperaturefusewillopenat302½F(150½C)
causing the oven to shut down.
NOTE: This is a fuse. It does not reset.
THERMAL CUT-OUT (HOOD )
This thermal cut-out located on the right base plate flange
(turntablemotorside).Itisdesignedtoautomaticallyturnon
the hood fan motor whenever the hot air rising from the
conventional range below causes the temperature at the
thermal cut-out to rise to 140½F (60½C) or higher, thus
removingthishotairfromaroundmicrowaveoven.Whenthe
temperature around the thermal cut-out drops to 113½F
(45½C) or lower, the thermal cut-out shuts off the hood fan
motor.
THERMAL CUT-OUT (CAVITY )
This thermal cut-out is located on the bottom of the oven
cavity.Itisdesignedtopreventdamagetotheovenunitifthe
foodintheovencatchesfireduetooverheatingproducedby
improper setting of cooking time or failure of control unit.
Undernormaloperation,thethermalcut-out remainsclosed.
However, the thermal cut-out will open at 293½F (145½C)
causingtheoventoshutdown.Thedefectivethermalcut-out
must be replaced with a new one.
TURNTABLE MOTOR
The turntable motor rotates the turntable located on the
bottomof the oven cavity, so thatthefoods on the turntable
cook evenly during cooking. Turntable will turn in either
direction.Theturntablemotor canbe turnedoff bytouching
TURNTABLEON/OFFpad.
COOLING FAN MOTOR
The cooling fan motor drives a blade which draws external
cool air. This cool air is directed through the air vanes
surroundingthemagnetronandcoolsthemagnetron.Thisair
is channelled through the oven cavity to remove steam and
DOOR OPEN MECHANISM
Thedoorisopenedbypushingtheopenbuttononthecontrol
panel,refer to the FigureD-1.
Whentheopenbuttonispushed,theopenbuttonpushesup
theopen lever, andthen the open leverpushes up thelatch
head.Thelatchheadsaremovedupwardandreleasedfrom
latch hook. Now the door will open.

DOOR SENSING AND PRIMARY INTERLOCK
SWITCHES
The primary interlock switch is mounted in the lower posi-
tion of the latch hook and the door sensing switch in the
secondary interlock system is mounted in the upper posi-
tionofthelatchhook.They areactivated bythe latchheads
onthedoor.Whenthedoorisopened,theswitchesinterrupt
the circuit to all components. A cook cycle cannot take
place until the door is firmly closed thereby activating both
interlock switches. The secondary interlock system con-
sists of the door sensing switch and secondary interlock
relay located on the control circuit board.
MONITOR SWITCH

Functions:
1. When the door is opened, the monitor switch contact
close (to the ON condition) due to their being normally
closed. At this time the secondary interlock relay (RY2)
and primary interlock switch are in the OFF condition
(contactsopen)duetotheirbeingnormallyopencontact
switches. And the contacts of relay (RY1) are in the ON
condition (contacts close).
2. Asthedoorgoestoaclosedposition,themonitorswitch

and the primary interlock switch contacts close. (On
opening the door, each of these switches operate
inversely.)
