oven door open and when the monitor switch closes.
2. The fuse also blows when asymmetric rectifier, H.V.
rectifier,H.V.wireharness,H.V.capacitor,magnetronor
secondary winding of power transformer is shorted.
3. If the wire harness or electrical components are short-
circuited, this fuse blows to prevent an electric shock or
fire hazard.
TEMPERATURE FUSE 150˚C (MG)
Thisfuseprotectsthemagnetronagainstoverheating.Ifthe
temperature goes up higher than 150˚C because the fan
motor is interrupted, the air inlet duct is blocked or the
ventilationopeningsareobstructed,thefuseblowsandcuts
off the power supplying to the power transformer.
The defective fuse must be replaced with new rated one.
TEMP. FUSE 150˚C (OVEN)
The temp. fuse located on the top of the oven cavity is
designed to prevent damage to the oven if the foods in the
oven catch fire due to over heating produced by improper
setting of cook time or failure of control unit.
Under normal operation, the temp. fuse remains closed.
However,whenabnormally high temperaturesare reached
within the oven cavity, the temp. fuse will open at 150˚C,
causing the oven to shut down. The defective fuse must be
replace with a new one.

TURNTABLE MOTOR
The turntable motor drives the roller stay to rotate the
turntable.
FAN MOTOR FM
The fan motor drives a blade which draws external cool air.
This cool air is directed through the air vanes surrounding
the magnetron and cools the magnetron. This air is chan-
nelled through the oven cavity to remove steam and va-
pours given off from the heating foods. It is then exhausted
through the exhausting air vents at the oven cavity
NOISE FILTER (for New Zealand)
The noise filter prevents the radio frequency interference
that might flow back in the power circuit.

WARNING TO SERVICE PERSONNEL
Microwave ovens contain circuitry capable of producing very high voltage and current, contact with any part of the
high voltage circuit will result in electrocution. High voltage capacitor, Power transformer, Magnetron, High voltage
rectifier assembly, High voltage harness.
REMEMBER TO CHECK 3D
1) Disconnect the supply.
2) Door opened, and wedged open.
3) Discharge high voltage capacitor.
WARNING: AGAINST THE CHARGE OF THE
HIGH-VOLTAGE CAPACITOR
The high-voltage capacitor remains charged about
60 seconds after the oven has been switched off.
Wait for 60 seconds and then short-circuit the con-
nection of the high-voltage capacitor (that is, of the
connectingleadofthe high-voltage rectifier)against
thechassiswiththe use ofan insulated screwdriver.
Sharp recommend that wherever possible fault-finding
is carried out with the supply disconnected. It may in,
some cases, be necessary to connect the supply after
theoutercasehasbeenremoved,inthiseventcarryout
3D checks and then disconnect the leads to the primary
of the power transformer. Ensure that these leads re-
main isolated from other components and the oven
chassis. (Use insulation tape if necessary.) When the
testing is completed carry out 3D checks and reconnect
the leads to the primary of the power transformer.
REMEMBER TO CHECK 4R
1) Reconnectallleadsremovedfromcomponentsduring
testing.
2) Replace the outer case (cabinet).
3) Reconnect the supply.
4) Run the oven. Check all functions.
Microwave ovens should not be run empty. To test for
thepresenceof microwaveenergy within acavity, place
acup ofcold wateronthe oventurntable,close the door
andset themicrowavetimerfortwo(2)minutes.Setthe
powerlevel to HIGHand pushthe STARTbutton.When

When troubleshooting the microwave oven, it is helpful to
follow the Sequence of Operation in performing the
checks. Many of the possible causes of trouble will require
that a specific test be performed. These tests are given a
procedure letter which will be found in the "Test

CARRY OUT 3D CHECK.
Isolate the magnetron from high voltage circuit by removing all leads connected to filament terminal.
To test for an open circuit filament use an ohmmeter to make a continuity test between the magnetron
filament terminals, the meter should show a reading of less than 1 ohm.
To test for short filament to anode condition, connect ohmmeter between one of the filament terminals
and the case of the magnetron (ground). This test should be indicated an infinite resistance. If a low or
zero resistance reading is obtained then the magnetron should be replaced.
MICROWAVE OUTPUT POWER (1 Litre water load)
The following test procedure should be carried out with the microwave oven in a fully assembled
condition (outer case fitted). Microwave output power from the magnetron can be measured by way of
IEC 705, i.e. it can be measured by using water load how much it can be absorbed by the water load.
Tomeasurethemicrowaveoutputpower in themicrowaveoven,the relation ofcalorieandwatt is used.
When P(W) heating works for t(second), approximately P x t/4.187 calorie is generated. On the other
hand, if the temperature of the water with V(ml) rises ∆T (°C) during this microwave heating period, the
calorie of the water is V x ∆T.
NEVER TOUCH ANY PART IN THE CIRCUIT WITH YOUR HAND OR AN INSULATED TOOL
WHILE THE OVEN IS IN OPERATION.
AMAGNETRON TEST
The formula is as follows;
P x t / 4.187 = V x ∆T P (W) = 4.187 x V x ∆T / t
Our condition for water load is as follows:
Room temperature..............around 20°C PowersupplyVoltage.........Ratedvoltage
Water load.........1000 g Initial temperature...........10±2°C Heating time.........60 sec.
P = 70 x ∆T
Measuring condition:
1. Container
The water container must be a cylindrical borosilicate glass vessel having a maximum material
thickness of 3 mm and an outside diameter of approximately 190 mm.
2. Temperature of the oven and vessel
The oven and the empty vessel are at ambient temperature prior to the start the test.
3. Temperature of the water
The initial temperature of the water is (10±2)°C.
4. Selectthe initial andfinalwater temperature sothatthe maximum differencebetweenthe final water
temperature and the ambient temperature is 5K.
5. Select stirring devices and measuring instruments in order to minimize addition or removal of heat.
6. Thegraduationofthethermometermustbe scaled by 0.1°Catminimumandaccuratethermometer.
7. The water load must be (1000±5) g.
8. “t” is measured while the microwave generator is operating at full power. Magnetron filament heat-
up time is not included.
NOTE: The operation time of the microwave oven is “t + 2” sec. 2 sec. is magnetron filament heat-up time.
Measuring method:
1. Measure the initial temperature of the water before the water is added to the vessel.
(Example: The initial temperature T1 = 11°C)
2. Add the 1 litre water to the vessel.
3. Place the load on the centre of the shelf.
4. Operate the microwave oven at HIGH for the temperature of the water rises by a value ∆T of
(10 ±2) K.
5. Stir the water to equalize temperature throughout the vessel.

MICROWAVE OUTPUT POWER (2 Litre water load)
The following test procedure should be carried out with the microwave oven in a fully assembled
condition (with outer case fitted).
Microwave output power from the magnetron can be measured by way of substitution, i.e. it can be
measured by using a water load how much it can be absorbed by the water load. To measure the
microwave output power in the microwave oven, the relation of calorie and watt is used.
Ontheotherhand,ifthetemperature of the waterwithV(ml)rises∆T(˚C)duringthismicrowaveheating
period, the calorie of the water is V x ∆T.
The formula is as follows;
P x t / 4.2 = V x ∆T P (W) = 4.2 x V x ∆T / t
Our condition for water load is as follows:
Room temperature..............around 23±2˚C Power supply Voltage.........Rated voltage
Water load.........2000 ml Initial temperature...........23±1˚C Heating time .2 min. 20sec.
P = 60 x ∆T
Measuring method:
A) The two water containers must be prepared.
Thewatercontainermustbeone(1)litrebeakermadeofPyrex glassanditsdiameterapproximately
12cm.
B) Putthe one (1)litrewaterinto eachbeaker (Eachbeakerhasone litrewater). Theinitialtemperature
of the water should be 23±1˚C.
C) Mark T1 on the one beaker and mark T2 on the other one. And stir the water and measure the
temperature of water the thermometer and note them. The graduation of the thermometer must be
scaled by 0.1˚C at minimum and an accurate mercury thermometer is recommended.
D) Place the two (2) beakers as touching each other in the centre of the oven cavity.
E) Set the timer to 2 minutes and 20 seconds, start the oven at 100% power.
F) The time must be measured with stopwatch or wristwatch.
G) After 2 minutes and 20 seconds, stop the oven by opening the door.
H) Put the two (2) beakers out of the oven cavity and measure the temperature of the water by stirring
the water with thermometer and note them.

J TOUCH CONTROL PANEL ASSEMBLY TEST
The touch control panel consists of circuits including semiconductors such as LSI, ICs, etc. Therefore,
unlike conventional microwave ovens, proper maintenance cannot be performed with only a voltmeter
and ohmmeter.
In this service manual, the touch control panel assembly is in one unit, and troubleshooting by unit
replacement is described according to the symptoms indicated.
1. Tact Switch.
The following symptoms indicate a defective tact switch. Replace the tact switch.
a) When touching the tact switches, a certain tact switch produces no signal at all.
b) When touching the tact switches, sometimes a tact switch produces no signal.
2. Control Panel
The following symptoms may indicate a defective control unit. Before replacing the control unit,
perform the tact switch test (Procedure K) to determine if control unit is faulty.
2-1 In connection with tact switches.
a) When touching the tact switches, a certain group of tact switches do not produce a signal.
b) When touching the tact switches, no tact switches produce a signal.
2-2 In connection with indicators
a) At a certain digit, all or some segments do not light up.
b) At a certain digit, brightness is low.
c) Only one indicator does not light.
d) The corresponding segments of all digits do not light up or they continue to light up.
e) Wrong figure appears.
f) A certain group of indicators do not light up.
g) The figure of all digits flicker.
2-3 Other possible problems caused by defective control unit.
a) Buzzer does not sound or continues to sound.
b) Cooking is not possible.
K TACT SWITCH TEST
If the display fails to clear when the STOP/CLEAR tact switch is depressed, first verify that the door
sensing switch(stop switch) operates properly; that is the contacts are closed when the door is closed
and open when the door is open. If the door sensing switch(stop switch) is good, make sure the door
sensing switch is closed (either close the door or short the door sensing switch connecter). Use the tact
switchmatrixindicatedonthecontrolpanelschematicand
placeajumperwirebetweenthepinsthatcorrespondtothe
STOP/CLEAR tact switch making momentary contact. If
the control unit responds by clearing with a beep, the tact
switch is faulty and must be replaced. If the control unit
does not respond, it is a faulty and must be replaced. If a
specific pad does not respond, the above method may be
used (after clearing the control unit) to determine if the
control unit or tact switch is at fault.

SERVICING
1. Precautions for Handling Electronic Components
This unit uses CMOS LSI in the integral part of the
circuits. When handling these parts, the following pre-
cautions should be strictly followed. CMOS LSI have
extremely high impedance at its input and output termi-
nals. For this reason, it is easily influenced by the
surroundinghigh voltage powersource, staticelectricity
charge in clothes, etc, and sometimes it is not fully
protected by the built-in protection circuit.
In order to protect CMOS LSI.
1) Whenstoringandtransporting,thoroughlywrapthemin
aluminiumfoil.AlsowrapallPWboardscontainingthem
in aluminium foil.
2) When soldering, ground the technician as shown in the
figure and use grounded soldering iron and work table.
2. Shapes of Electronic Components
3. Servicing of Touch Control Panel
We describe the procedures to permit servicing of the
touch control panel of the microwave oven and the
precautions you must take when doing so. To perform
the servicing, power to the touch control panel is avail-
able either from the power line of the oven itself or from
an external power source.
(1)Servicingthetouchcontrolpanelwithpowersupply
of the oven:
CAUTION:
THE HIGH VOLTAGE TRANSFORMER OF THE MI-
CROWAVE OVEN IS STILL LIVE DURING SERVIC-
ING PRESENTS A HAZARD.
Therefore, when checking the performance of the touch
control panel, put the outer cabinet on the oven to avoid
touching the high voltage transformer, or unplug the
primary terminal (connector) of the high voltage trans-
former to turn it off; the end of such connector must be
insulatedwithaninsulatingtape.Afterservicing,besure
to replace the leads to their original locations.
A. On some models, the power supply cord between the
touchcontrolpanelandtheovenitselfissoshortthatthe
two can’t be separated. For those models, check and
approx. 1M ohm
repair all the controls (sensor-related ones included) of
thetouchcontrolpanelwhilekeepingit connected to the
oven.
B. On some models, the power supply cord between the
touch control panel and the oven proper is long enough
that they may be separated from each other. For those
models, therefore, it is possible to check and repair the
controls of the touch control panel while keeping it apart
from the oven proper; in this case you must short both
ends of the door sensing switch (on PWB) of the touch
control panel with a jumper, which brings about an
operational state that is equivalent to the oven door
being closed. As for the sensor-related controls of the
touchcontrolpanel, checkingthem is possibleif dummy
resistor(s) with resistance equal to that of the controls
are used.
(2) Servicingthe touchcontrol panelwith powersupply
from an external power source:
Disconnect the touch control panel completely from the
oven proper,and short both ends of the door sensing
switch(onPWB) ofthe touch controlpanel,which brings
about an operational state that is equivalent to the oven
doorbeingclosed.Connectanexternalpowersourceto
the power input terminal of the touch control panel, then
itispossibletocheckandrepairthecontrolsofthetouch
control panel it is also possible to check the sensor-
related controls of the touch control panel by using the
dummy resistor(s).
4. Servicing Tools
Toolsrequiredtoservicethetouchcontrolpanelassem-
bly.

(It is recommended to use a soldering iron with a
grounding terminal.)
2) Oscilloscope:Singlebeam,frequencyrange:DC-10MHz
type or more advanced model.
3) Others: Hand tools
5. Other Precautions
1) Before turning on the power source of the control unit,
remove the aluminium foil applied for preventing static
electricity.
2) Afteraluminiumfoilisremoved,becarefulthatabnormal
voltage due to static electricity etc. is not applied to the
input or output terminals.
3) Attach connectors, electrolytic capacitors, etc. to PWB,
making sure that all connections are tight.
4) Be sure to use specified components where high preci-
sion is required.
