    5. CAUTIONS TO BE OBSERVED WHEN TROUBLESHOOTING Unlike many other appliances, the microwave oven is high- IMPORTANT NOTE voltage, high-current equipment. Though it is free from dan- High voltage above 250 volts exists on the following parts ger in ordinary use, extreme care should be taken during during operation.
  • Page 7: Parts Replacement Procedure

    6. PARTS REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE 6.1 Magnetron 1. Discharge the high voltage capacitor. MAGNETRON 2. Disconnect 2 high voltage lead wires from the magnetron filament terminals. 3. Remove 1 screw holding the magnetron. NOTE: After replacement of the magnetron, tighten mounting screws properly making sure trhere is no gap between the waveguide and the mag- netron to prevent microwave leakage.

  • Page 9: Component Test Procedure

    7. COMPONENT TEST PROCEDURE CAUTION 1. High voltage is present at the high voltage terninal of the high voltage transformer during any cook cycle. 2. It is neither necessary nor advisable to attempt mea- surement of the high voltage. 3. Before touching any oven components, or wiring, always unplug the oven from its power source and dis- charge the high voltage capacitor.
