MICROWAVE MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE
A. Requirements:
1) Microwave leakage limit (Power density limit): The power density of microwave radiation emitted by a microwave oven
shouldnotexceed1mW/cm2atanypoint5cmormorefromtheexternalsurfaceoftheoven,measuredpriortoacquisition
bya purchaser,and thereafter(throughthe usefullifeof theoven),5 mW/cm2atany point5cmor morefromthe external
surface of the oven.
2) Safety interlock switches Primary interlock relay and door sensing switch shall prevent microwave radiation emission in
excess of the requirement as above mentioned, secondary interlock switch shall prevent microwave radiation emission
in excess of 5 mW/cm2at any point 5cm or more from the external surface of the oven.
B. Preparation for testing:
Before beginning the actual measurement of leakage, proceed as follows:
1) Make sure that the actual instrument is operating normally as specified in its instruction booklet.
Important:
Surveyinstruments thatcomply withthe requirementfor instrumentationas prescribedby theperformance standard
for microwave ovens, 21 CFR 1030.10(c)(3)(i), must be used for testing.
2) Place the oven tray in the oven cavity.
3) Place the load of 275±15 ml (9.8 oz) of tap water initially at 20±5˚C (68˚F) in the center of the oven cavity.
The water container shall be a low form of 600 ml (20 oz) beaker with an inside diameter of approx. 8.5 cm (3-1/2 in.)
and made of an electrically nonconductive material such as glass or plastic.
Theplacingofthisstandardloadintheovenisimportantnotonlytoprotecttheoven,butalsotoinsurethatanyleakage
is measured accurately.
4) Set the cooking control on Full Power Cooking Mode
5) Close the door and select a cook cycle of several minutes. If the water begins to boil before the survey is completed,
replace it with 275 ml of cool water.
C. Leakage test:
Closed-door leakage test (microwave measurement)
1) Grasptheprobeofthesurveyinstrumentandholditperpendiculartothegapbetweenthedoorandthebodyoftheoven.
2) Move the probe slowly, not faster than 1 in./sec. (2.5 cm/sec.) along the gap, watching for the maximum indication on
the meter.
3) Checkforleakageatthedoorscreen,sheetmetalseamsandotheraccessiblepositionswherethecontinuityofthemetal
has been breached (eg., around the switches, indicator, and vents).
Whiletestingforleakagearoundthedoorpullthedoorawayfromthefrontoftheovenasfarasispermittedbytheclosed
latch assembly.
4) Measure carefully at the point of highest leakage and make sure that the highest leakage is no greater than 4mW/cm2,
and that the secondary interlock switch does turn the oven OFF before any door movement.

COOKING CONDITION
Program desired cooking time by touching the NUMBER
pads. Program the power level by touching the POWER
LEVEL pad and then a Number pad.
When the START pad is touched, the following operations
occur:
1. The contacts of relays are closed and components
connected to the relays are turned on as follows.
(For details, refer to Figure O-2)
RELAY CONNECTED COMPONENTS
RY-1 oven lamp/turntable motor/fan motor
RY-2 power transformer
2. 120 volts A.C. is supplied to the primary winding of the
power transformer and is converted to about 3.2 volts
A.C. output on the filament winding, and approximately
2150 volts A.C. on the high voltage winding.
3. The filament winding voltage heats the magnetron
filamentandtheH.V.windingvoltageissenttoavoltage
doubler circuit.
4. The microwave energy produced by the magnetron is
channelled through the waveguide into the cavity feed-
box, and then into the cavity where the food is placed to
be cooked.
5. Upon completion of the cooking time, the power
transformer, oven lamp, etc. are turned off, and the
generation of microwave energy is stopped. The oven
will revert to the OFF condition.
6. When the door is opened during a cook cycle, monitor
switch,doorsensingswitch,secondary interlockswitch,
relay(RY1)andprimaryinterlockrelayareactivatedwith
the following results. The circuits to the turntable motor,
the cooling fan motor, and the high voltage components
are de-energized, the oven lamp remains on, and the
digital read-out displays the time still remaining in the
cook cycle when the door was opened.
7. Themonitorswitch electricallymonitors theoperation of
the secondary interlock switch and primary interlock
relay and is mechanically associated with the door so
that it will function in the following sequence.
(1)When the door opens from the closed position, the
primary interlock relay (RY2) and secondary interlock
switch open their contacts. And contacts of the relay
(RY1)remainsclosed.Thenthemonitorswitchcontacts
close.
(2)When the door is closed from the open position, the
monitor switch contacts open first. Then the contacts of
the secondary interlock switch and door sensing switch
close. And contacts of the relay (RY1) open.
Ifthesecondary interlockswitch andprimary interlockrelay
(RY2)failwiththecontactsclosedwhenthedoorisopened,
the closing of the monitor switch contacts will form a short
circuitthroughthemonitorfuse,secondaryinterlockswitch,
relay (RY1) and primary interlock relay (RY2), causing the
monitor fuse to blow.

DOOR SENSING AND SECONDARY INTERLOCK
SWITCHES
The secondary interlock switch is mounted in the lower
positionofthelatch hook andthe doorsensingswitch inthe
primaryinterlocksystemismountedintheupperpositionof
thelatchhook.They are activatedby thelatchheads onthe
door. When the door is opened, the switches interrupt the
power to all high voltage components. A cook cycle cannot
take place until the door is firmly closed thereby activating
both interlock switches. The primary interlock system con-
sists of the door sensing switch and primary interlock relay
located on the control circuit board.
MONITOR SWITCH
Themonitorswitchisactivated(thecontactsopened)bythe
latch head on the door while the door is closed. The switch
is intended to render the oven inoperative, by means of
blowing the monitor fuse, when the contacts of the primary
interlock relay (RY2) and secondary interlock switch fail to
open when the door is opened.
Functions:
1. When the door is opened, the monitor switch contact
close (to the ON condition) due to their being normally
closed.Atthistimetheprimaryinterlockrelay(RY2)and
secondary interlock switch are in the OFF condition
(contactsopen)duetotheirbeingnormallyopencontact
switches.
2. Asthedoorgoestoaclosedposition,themonitorswitch
contacts are first opened and then the door sensing
switchandthesecondaryinterlockswitchcontactsclose.
(On opening the door, each of these switches operate
inversely.)
3. If the door is opened, and the primary interlock relay
(RY2) and secondary interlock switch contacts fail to
open,themonitorfuseblowssimultaneouslywithclosing
of the monitor switch contacts.
CAUTION: BEFORE REPLACING A BLOWN MONITOR
FUSE TEST THE DOOR SENSING SWITCH,
PRIMARYINTERLOCKRELAY(RY2),RELAY
(RY1), SECONDARY INTERLOCK SWITCH
AND MONITOR SWITCH FOR PROPER OP-
ERATION.(REFERTOCHAPTER"TESTPRO-
CEDURE").
NOTE: MONITOR FUSE AND MONITOR SWITCH ARE
REPLACED AS AN ASSEMBLY.
TURNTABLE MOTOR
The turntable motor rotates the turntable located on the
bottomof theoven cavity,so thatthe foodson theturntable
cookevenlyduringcooking.Theturntablemayturnineither
direction.
COOLING FAN MOTOR
The cooling 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 channelled through the oven cavity to remove steam
and vapors given off from the heating foods. It is then
exhausted through the exhausting air vents at the oven
cavity.
MONITOR FUSE
1. Themonitorfuseblowswhenthecontacts(COM-NO)of
theprimaryinterlockrelay(RY2)andsecondaryinterlock
switchremainclosed withthe ovendoor openandwhen
the monitor switch closes.
2. If the wire harness or electrical components are short-
circuited, this monitor fuse blows to prevent an electric
shock or fire hazard.
OVEN THERMAL CUT-OUT
Thethermalcut-out,locatedonthetopoftheovencavity,is
designedtoprevent damagetotheoven byfire.If the foods
load is overcooked, by either error in cook time or defect in
the control unit, the thermal cut-out will open.
Under normal operation, the oven thermal cut-out remains
closed. However, when abnormally high temperatures are
reachedwithintheovencavity,theoventhermalcut-outwill
open at 257˚F(125˚C), causing the oven to shut down.
MAGNETRON THERMAL CUT-OUT
Thethermalcut-outlocatednearthemagnetronisdesigned
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,thethermalcut-outremainsclosed.
However,whenabnormally hightemperatures arereached
within the magnetron, the thermal cut-out will open at
203˚F(95˚C) causing the oven to shut down.

MICROWAVE OUTPUT POWER
The following test procedure should be carried out with the microwave oven in a fully assembled
condition (outer case fitted).
HIGH VOLTAGES ARE PRESENT DURING THE COOK CYCLE, SO EXTREME CAUTION SHOULD
BE OBSERVED.
Power output of the magnetron can be measured by performing a water temperature rise test. This test
shouldonlybeusedifabovetestsdonotindicateafaultymagnetronandthereisnodefectinthefollowing

a 16 ounce (453cc) measuring cup and an accurate mercury thermometer or thermocouple type
temperature tester. For accurate results, the following procedure must be followed carefully:
1. Fillthemeasuringcupwith16oz.(453cc)oftapwaterandmeasurethetemperatureofthewaterwith
a thermometer or thermocouple temperature tester. Stir the thermometer or thermocouple through
the water until the temperature stabilizes. Record the temperature of the water.
2. Place the cup of water in the oven. Operate oven at POWER 10(HIGH) selecting more than 60
secondscooktime.Allowthewatertoheatfor60seconds,measuringwithastopwatch,secondhand

3. Remove the cup from the oven and again measure the temperature, making sure to stir the
thermometer or thermocouple through the water until the maximum temperature is recorded.
4. Subtractthe coldwatertemperature fromthe hotwatertemperature. Thenormalresult shouldbe 22

1. Disconnect the power supply cord, and then remove outer case.
2. Open the door and block it open.
3. Discharge high voltage capacitor.
4. If the capacitor is open, no high voltage will be available to the magnetron. Disconnect input leads
and check for short or open between the terminals using an ohmmeter.
Checking with a high ohm scale, if the high voltage capacitor is normal, the meter will indicate
continuity for a short time and should indicate an open circuit once the capacitor is charged. If the
above is not the case, check the capacitor with an ohmmeter to see if it is shorted between either of
the terminals and case. If it is shorted, replace the capacitor.
5. Reconnect all leads removed from components during testing.
6. Reinstall the outer case (cabinet).
7. Reconnect the power supply cord after the outer case is installed.

TOUCH CONTROL PANEL ASSEMBLY
OUTLINE OF TOUCH CONTROL PANEL
The touch control section consists of the following units.
(1) Key Unit
(2) Control Unit (The Control Unit consists of Power Unit and
CPU Unit).
The principal functions of these units and the signals com-
municated among them are explained below.
Key Unit
The key unit is composed of a matrix, signals generated in
the LSI are sent to the key unit through P73, P81, P82, P83,
P90 and P91.
When a key pad is touched, a signal is completed through
the key unit and passed back to the LSI through P60 - P63
to perform the function that was requested.
Control Unit
Control unit consists of LSI, ACL circuit, indicator circuit,
power source circuit, relay circuit, buzzer circuit, synchroniz-
ing signal circuit and back light circuit.
1) ACL
This circuit generates a signal which resets the LSI to the
initial state when power is supplied.
2) Indicator Circuit
This circuit consists of 12 segments and 3 common elec-
trodes using a Liquid Crystal Display.
3) Power Source Circuit
This circuit generates voltages necessary in the control
unit from the AC line voltage.
Inaddition, the synchronizingsignalisavailableinorderto
compose a basic standard time in the clock circuit.

and light the oven lamp.
5) Buzzer Circuit
The buzzer is responsive to signals from the LSI to emit
audible sounds (key touch sound and completion sound).
6) Synchronizing Signal Circuit
Thepowersourcesynchronizingsignalisavailableinorder
to compose a basic standard time in the clock circuit.
It accompanies a very small error because it works on
commercial frequency.
7) Door Sensing Switch
A switch to “tell” the LSI if the door is open or closed.
8) Back Light Circuit
A circuit to drive the back light (Light emitting diodes LD1-
LD5).
