2. Make sure that a definite” click” can be heard when the
microwave oven door is unlatched. (Hold the door in a
closed position with one hand, then push the door open
button with the other, this causes the latch leads to rise,
it is then possible to hear a “click’ as the door switches
operate.)
3. Visually check the door and cavity face plate for damage
(dents, cracks, signs of arcing etc.).
Carry out any remedial work that is necessary before oper-
ating the oven.

adjustment should be made.
1. CARRY OUT 3D CHECKS
2. Loosen the two (2) screw holding the latch hook to the
oven cavity front flange.
3. With the door closed, adjust latch hook by moving it back
and forward or up and down. In and out play of the door
allowed by the latch hook should be less than 0.5 mm.
The horizontal position of the latch hook should be placed
where the latch head has pushed the plungers of the
monitor switch with the door closed. The vertical position
of the latch hook should be placed where the latch head
has pushed the plungers of the monitored latch switch
and stop switch with the door closed.
4. Secure the screws firmly.
5. Make sure all of the switches operate. If the latch head
has not pushed the plungers of the monitor switch with
door closed, adjust the latch hook position.
At that time, the latch head should have pushed the
plungers of the monitored latch switch and stop switch. If
the latch head has not pushed the plungers of the
monitored latch switch and stop switch with door closed,
loose the two (2) screws holding latch hook to the oven
cavity front flange and adjust the latch hook position.
After adjustment, make sure of the following:

latched position. First check latch hook position, pushing
and pulling upper portion of door toward the oven face.
Then check the lower latch hook position, pushing and
pulling lower portion of door toward the oven face. Both
results (plays of the door) should be less than 0.5mm.
2. The monitored switch and stop switch interrupt the circuit
