OPERATION SEQUENCE OFF CONDITION Closing the door activates the door interlock switch (monitored latch switch). IMPORTANT When the oven door is closed, the monitor switch contacts COM - NC must be open. When the microwave oven is plugged in a wall outlet (230V (EU) / 230-240V (UK) 50Hz), the noise filter is energized. Figure 0-1 on page 32 NOTE: When the oven door is opened, the oven lamp comes on at this time.
OPERATION SEQUENCE HIGH, MEDIUM HIGH, MEDIUM, MEDIUM LOW, LOW COOKING When the microwave oven is preset for variable cooking power, the line voltage is supplied to the power transformer intermittently within a 32-second time base through the vary contact. The following levels of microwave power are given. SETTING HIGH MEDIUM HIGH Approx. MEDIUM Approx. MEDIUM LOW Approx. LOW Approx. NOTE: The ON/OFF time ratio does not exactly correspond to the percentage of microwave power, because approx.

TROUBLESHOOTING CHART 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 Procedure” section. IMPORTANT: If the oven becomes inoperative because of a blown fuse F1. Check the monitored latch switch and monitor switch before replacing the F8A fuse.
TEST PROCEDURES PROCEDURE LETTER A COMPONENT TEST MAGNETRON TEST NEVER TOUCH ANY PART IN THE CIRCUIT WITH YOUR HAND OR AN INSULATED TOOL WHILE THE OVEN IS IN OPERATION. CARRY OUT 3D CHECK Isolate the magnetron from 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.
TEST PROCEDURES PROCEDURE LETTER COMPONENT TEST NOTE: The operation time of the microwave oven is “t + 3” sec. 3 seconds are needed for 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 turntable. 4.
TEST PROCEDURES PROCEDURE LETTER E COMPONENT TEST SWITCH TEST CARRY OUT 3D CHECKS. Isolate the switch to be tested and using an ohmmeter check between the terminals as described in the following table. Table: Terminal Connection of Switch Plunger Operation COM to NO COM to NC COM; Common terminal Released Open circuit Short circuit NO; Normally open terminal Depressed Short circuit Open Circuit NC; Normally close terminal If incorrect readings are obtained, replace the switch.
TEST PROCEDURES PROCEDURE LETTER H COMPONENT TEST NOISE FILTER TEST CARRY OUT 3D CHECKS Disconnect the leads from the terminals of the noise filter. Using an ohmmeter, check between the terminals as described in the following table. MEASURING POINTS Between N and L Between terminal N and WHITE Between terminal L and RED INDICATION OF OHMMETER Open circuit Short circuit Short circuit If Incorrect readings are obtained, replace the noise filter unit.
TEST PROCEDURES 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 can not be performed with only a voltmeter and ohmmeter. In this service manual, the touch control panel assembly is in four units, Control unit, Switch Unit, LED Unit and Relay Unit. Troubleshooting by unit replacement is described according to the symptoms indicated. 1. Switch Unit.

The meter should indicate rated voltage, if not check oven circuit.
TEST PROCEDURES PROCEDURE LETTER M COMPONENT TEST PROCEDURES TO BE TAKEN WHEN THE FOIL PATTERN ON THE PRINTED WIRING BOARD (PWB) IS OPEN To protect the electronic circuits, this model is provided with a fine foil pattern added to the input circuit on the PWB, this foil pattern acts as a fuse. If the foil pattern is open, follow the troubleshooting guide given below for repair. Problem: POWER ON, indicator does not light up. STEPS OCCURRENCE CAUSE OR CORRECTION Check supply voltage and oven power cord.
CONTROL PANEL ASSEMBLY OUTLINE OF CONTROL PANEL The touch control section consists of the following units as shown in the touch control panel circuit. (1) Switch Unit (2) Control Unit (3) LED Unit (4) Relay Unit The principal functions of these units and the signals communicated among them are explained below. Switch Unit The switch unit is composed of a matrix, signals generated in the LSI are sent to the switch unit through P22, P23 and P24.
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 precautions should be strictly followed. CMOS LSI have extremely high impedance at its input and output terminals. For this reason, it is easily influenced by the surrounding high voltage power source, static electricity charge in clothes, etc. and sometimes it is not fully protected by the built-in protection circuit.
COMPONENT REPLACEMENT AND ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE WARNING: Avoid possible exposure to microwave energy. Please follow the instructions below before operating the oven. 1. CARRY OUT 3D CHECKS. 2. Make sure that a definite "click" can be heard when the microwave oven door is unlatched. (Hold the door in a closed position, then push the door open button slowly. This causes the latch heads to rise, it is then possible to hear a "click" as the door switches operate.) 3.
