CONVECTION COOKING CONDITION
PREHEATING CONDITION
Program desired convection temperature by touching
the CONVECTION pad and the temp. pad. When the
START pad is touched, the following operations occur:
1. The coil of shut-off relays RYI +RY5+RY6 are
energizedthe oven lamp, cooling fan motor. turn-
table motor and convection motor are turned on.
2. The coil of relay (RY4) is energized by the CPU unit.
The damper is moved to the closed position open-
ing the damper switch contacts. The opening of the
damper switch contacts sends a signal to the LSI on
the CPU unit de-energizing the relay (RY4) and
opening the circuit to the damper motor.
3. The coil of heater relay (RY3) is energized by the
CPU unit and the main supply voltage is added to
the convection heater.
4. When the oven temperature reaches the selected
preheat temperature, the following operations occur:
4-1. The heater relay (RY3) is de-energized by the
CPU unit temperature circuit and thermistcr, operr-
ing the circuit to the convection heater.

turning the convection heater on and off. as
needed to maintain the selected preheat tempera-
ture. The oven will shut-down completely after 15
minutes.
CONVECTION COOKING CONDITION
When the preheat temperature is reached, a beep sig-
nal will sound indicating that the holding temperature
has been reached in the oven cavity. Open the door and
place the food to be cooked in the oven. Program de-
sired cooking time and convection temperature by
touching the number pad, CONVECTION pad and
Temperature pad. When the START pad is touched,
the following operations occur:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
The numbers of the digital readout start the count
down to zero.
The oven lamp, turntable motor, cooling fan motor
and convection motor are energized.
Heater relay (RY3) is energized (if the cavity tem-
perature is lower than the selected temperature) and
the main supply voltage is applied to the convection
heater to return to the selected cooking temperature.
Upon completion of the cooking time, the audible
signal will sound, and oven lamp, turntable motor,
cooling fan motor and convection motor are de-ener-
gized. At the end of the convection cycle, if the cavity
air temperature is above 118°C the circuit to (RY6)
will be maintained (by the thermistor circuit) to con-
tinue operation of the cooling fan motor until the
temperature drops below 118°C at which time the
relay will be de-energized, turning off the fan motor.
Relay (RY5) will however, open as soon as the con-
vection cycle has ended, turning off the convection
fan motor. This will now cool and allow the damper
door to open.
At the end of the convection cook cycle, shut-off re-
lay (RY4) is energized turning on the damper motor.
The damper is returned to the open position, closing the
damper switch contacts which send a signal to the control
unit, de-energizing shut-off relay (RY4).

AUTOMATIC OPERATIONS
This microwave oven has 4 automatic operations as follows.
SENSOR INSTANT ACTION
REHEAT SENSOR
INTELLIGENT SENSOR
DFROST SENSOR
These operations work by using absolute humidity sensor or
weight sensor.

ABSOLUTE HUMIDITY SENSOR (AH SENSOR) COOK-
ING CONDITION
lncase where the AH sensor is used, the foods are cooked in
microwave cooking mode without figuring time, power level
or quantity. When the oven senses enough steam from the
food, it relays the information to its microprocessor which will
calculate the remaining cooking time and power level
needed for best results.
When the food is cooked, water vapor is developed. The
sensor “senses” the vapor and its resistance increases
gradually. When the resistance reaches the value set ac-
cording to the menu, supplementary cooking is started.
The time of supplementary cooking is determined by experi-
ment with each food category and inputted into the LSI.
An example of how sensor works:
1. Potatoes at room temperature. Vapor is emitted very
slowly.
2. Heat potatoes. Moisture and humidity is emitted rapidly.
You can smell the aroma as it cooks. :
3. Sensor detects moisture and humidity and calculates
cooking time and variable power.
AH SENSOR COOKING SEQUENCE
1. In case the AH sensor cooking condition is started. the
coil of shut-off relays (RYl +RYG) are energized, the oven
lamp and cooling fan motor are turned on, but the power
transformer is not turned on.
NOTE:The oven should not be operated on AH SENSOR
COOKING immediately after plugging in the unit. Wait
five minutes before cooking on AH SENSOR COOK-
ING CONDITION.
2. After about 16 seconds, the cook relay (RY2) is ener-
gized. The power transformer is turned on, microwave
energy is produced and first stage is started. The 16 sec-
onds is the cooling time required to remove any vapor
from the oven cavity and sensor.
Figure O-2
NOTE:During this first stage, do not open the door or touch
STOP/CLEAR pad.
3. When the sensor detects the vapor emitted from the food,
the display switches over to the remaining cooking time
and the timer counts down to zero.At this time, the
door may be opened to stir food, turn it or season,
etc.
NOTE: In case where a small quantity of food is cooked,
the oven will stop without displaying the remain-
ing cooking time.
4. When the timer reaches zero, an audible signal
5
sounds. The shut-off relay (RYl+RYG) and cook re-
lay (RY2) are de-energized and the power trans-
former. oven lamp, etc. are turned off.
Opening the door or touching the STOP/CLEAR
pad. the time of day will reappear on the display and
the oven will revert to an OFF condition.
WEIGHT SENSOR COOKING CONDITION
In case where the weight sensor is used, the foods are
cooked without figuring cooking mode, time. power lev-
elor weight.
When the oven senes the weight of food, it relays the
information to its microprosessor which will set the
cooking mode and will calculate the cooking time and
power level needed for best results.
ACTIVATED SENSOR FOR SENSOR COOKING
The weight sensor and AH. sensor should be worked as

SENSING FIRE OPERATION
The oven will stop its operation when there is a fire in
the oven cavity in microwave cooking condition.
LSI measures the voltage across the temperature
measurement circuit intermittently within a 32-second
time base after since the oven is started in microwave
cooking condition. The oven will stop its operation when
the difference of the voltages is more than 0.3 volts in
microwave cooking condition.
1. Within a 32-second base, first the thermistor is ener-
gized for 3 seconds. After 2 seconds since the ther-
b

mistor is energized, the voltage across the tempera-
ture measurement circuit is measured. And after 21
seconds since the thermistor is cut off, the convec-
tion motor operates for 10 seconds.
The oven carries out the procedure above again. If
the second voltage is 0.3V higher than the first volt-

FUNCTION OF IMPORTANT COMPONENTS
RIGHT LATCH SWITCH AND LEFT LATCH
SWITCH
1. When the oven door is closed, the contacts COM-NO
must be closed.
2. When the oven door is opened, the contacts COM-NO
must be opened.
STOP SWITCH
1. This switch must make a contact when the door is closed,
and open it when the door is opened.
IVIONITOR SWITCH SW3
The monitor switch is activated (the contacts opened) by the
switch lever L on the latch hook (left) while the door is
closed. The switch is intended to render the oven inopera-
tive by means of blowing the fuse M8A when the contacts
of the right latch switch and the left latch switch fail to
open when the door is opened.
Function
1. When the door is opened, the monitor switch contacts
close (to the ON condition) due to their being normally
closed. At this time the right latch switch :and the left latch
switch are in the OFF condition (contacts open) due to
their being normally open contact switches.
2. As the door goes to a closed position. the monitor switch
contacts are opened and right latch switch. left latch
switch and stop switch ccntacts close. (On opening the
dcior. each of these switches operate inversely.)
T ifthe door is opened and the contacts COM-NO of the
. :IJ~I latch switch and left latch switch fail to open. the fuse

ASYMMETRIC RECTIFIER
The asymmetric rectifier is a solid state device that pre-
vents current flow ins both directions. And it prevents
the temperature rise of the power transformer by blow-
ing the fuse M8A when the high voltage rectifier is
shorted. Dl

ASYMMETRIC
RECTIFIER
P HIGH VOLTAGE RECTIFIER
The rated peak reverse voltage of Dl of the asymmetric
rectifier is 6 KV The rated peak reverse voltage of D2 of
the asymmetric rectifier is 1.7 KV. DI and D2 of the
asymmetric rectifier or high voltage rectifier are shorted
when the each peak reverse voltage goes beyond the
each rated peak reverse voltage. (The process of blow-
ing the fuse M8A.) .
1. The high voltage rectifier is shorted by any causes
when microwave cooking.
2. The peak reverse voltage of D2 of the rectifier goes
beyond the rated peak reverse voltage 1.7 KV in the
voltagedoubler circuit.
3. D2 of the rectifier is shorted.
4. The large electric currents flow through the high volt-
agewinding of the power transformer.
5. The large electric currents beyond 8A flow through
the primary winding of the power transformer.
6. The fuse M8A blows by the large electric currents.

3.
If the wire harness or electrical components are
short-circuited. this fuse blows to prevent an electric
shock or fire hazard.
The fuse also blows when right latch switch and left
latch switch remain closed with the oven door open
and when the monitor switch closes.
The fuse M8A also blows when asymmetric rectifier,
H.V. rectifier, H.V. wire harness. H.V.capacitor,
magnetron or secondary winding of power trans-
former is shorted.
THERMISTOR
The thermistor is a negative temperature coefficient
type. The temperature in the oven cavity is detected
through the resistance of the thermistor, and then the
control unit causes the heating element relay to oper-
ate, thus the current to the heating element is turned
ON/OFF.
TURNTABLE MOTOR
The turntable motor drives the turntable supporting
plate to rotate the turntable.

CONVECTION MOTOR
The convection motor drives the convection fan and
provides the heated air.
FAN MOTOR
The fan motor drives a blade which draws external cool
air. This cool air is directed through the air vanes sur-
rounding the magnetron and cools the magnetron. This
air is channeled through the oven cavity to remove
steam and vapors given off from the heating foods. it is
then exhausted through the exhausing air vents at the
oven cavity.
CONVECTION HEATER
The convection heater is located at the rear of ?he oven
cavity. It is intended to heat air driven by the convection
fan. The heated air is kept in the oven and force-circu-
lated and reheated by the convection heater.
THERMAL CUT-OUT 170-C (OVEN)
The thermal cut-out protect ihe conves:!en ~FZIC:
against overheating. If its temperature $1the ;op:iec:io:-
motor rises above 17% because the corveciior; ‘a~:
motor is interrupted, the ventliarion ,o:peni?gs ark oo-
strutted or the other abnormai matter cccures. 2-e :her-
mal cut-out opens and switch off the o\/er. W?X ihe
thermal cut-out cools itself down to i 55 C. :rie scritacts
of the thermal cut-out will close again.
THERMAL CUT-OUT 9O’C (FAN MOTOR)
The thermal cut-out protect the fan motor against over-
heating. If its temperature goes up higher than 96°C
because the fan motor is locked or the ventilation oper-
ating are blocked, the contacts of the thermal cut-out
will open and switch off the oven. When the thermal cut-
out cools itself down to 70X, the contacts of the thermal
cut-out will close again.
TEMPERATURE FUSE 1502 (MG)
This fuse protects the magnetron against overheating.
If the temperature goes up higher than 150°C because
the fan motor is interrupted, the air inlet ductis blocked
or the ventilation operatings are obstructed. the fuse
blows and cuts off the power supplying to the power
transformer. The defective fuse must be replaced with
new rated one.
CONVECTION COOKING SYSTEM
This oven is designed with a hot air heating system
where food is not directly heated by the convection
heater, but is heated by forced circulation of the hot air
produced by the convection heater.
The air heated by the convection heater is circulated
through the convection passage provided on the outer
casing of the oven cavity by means of the convection

These components are operated by a signal :ha: judges if
microwave cooking or convection cooking operation is se-
lected by the CPU unit.
Microwave Cooking:
Damper is in the open position, because a portion of cooling
air is channeled through the cavity to remove steam and
vapors given off from the heating foods.
It is then exhausted at the top of the oven cavity into a con-
densation compartment.
Convection Cooking:
Damper is in the closed position. so that no hot air wif! be
allowed to ieak out the oven cavity.

Isolate the magnetron from the high voltage circuit by removing all leads connected to the 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 a short circuit 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 Liter water load)
The following test procedure should be carried out with the microwaveoven in a fully assembled condi-
tion (outer case fitted).Microwave output power from the magnetron can be measured by way oflEC
705, i.e. it can be measured by using 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.When P(W) heating works for t(second). approximately P x t’4.187calorie is generated. On the
other hand, if the temperature of the water with V(ml) rises AT (“C) during this microwave heating
period. the calorie of thewater is V x .IT
The formula is as follows:

MICROWAVE OUTPUT POWER (2 Liter water load)
The ‘following test procedure shsu!d be carried out with the microwave oven in a fuily assemblea
condition (with outer case fitted).
Microwave output power from the magnetron can be measured by way of subsiitutron. 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.
When P(W) heating works for tjsecond), approximately P x ti4.2 calorie is generated. On the other
hand, if the temperature of the water with V(ml) rises AT (“C} during this microwave heating period, the
calorie of the water is V x AT.
The formulae is as follows: I
Pxt/4.2=VxAT P (W) = 4.2 x V xAT i t I
Our condition for the water load is as follows:
Room temperature ..........around 20°C Power supply Voltage ..........................240 volts.
Water load .......2000 ml Initial temperature .......10 I 1“C
P = 80 x IT Heating time ....1min. 45 sec.
Measuring method:
A) The two water containers must be prepared.
The water container must be one (I >litre beaker made of Pyrex glass and its diameter approxl-
mately 12cm.
B) Put the one (1) litre water into each beaker (Each beaker has one litre water). The initial tempera-
ture of the water should be 1Orl C.
C) Mark TI 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.
