Press MIX button 3 times. And enter the desired cooking time 
by rotating the ENCODER dial. And press MICRO POWER 
button to set the desired microwave power. When the INSTANT 
COOK/START button is touched, the following operations occur: 
1. The numbers on the digital readout start the count down to zero.
2. The oven lamp, cooling fan motor and turntable motor are 
  energized.
3. The relay RY4 is energized and the main supply voltage is 
applied to the bottom grill heating element.
4. The relay RY2 is energized and the microwave energy is 
generated by magnetron.
5. Now, the food is cooked by microwave and bottom grill simul-
taneously.

CHAPTER 6. FUNCTION OF IMPORTANT COMPONENTS
[1] DOOR OPEN MECHANISM
The door can be opened by pulling the door handle. When the 
handle is pulled, the latch head is pulled, the latch head is moved 
upward, and released from the latch hook now the door can be 
opened.

[2] SWITCH
1. MONITORED LATCH SWITCH
1. When the oven door is closed, the contacts (COM-NO) of the 
switch must be closed. And the contacts (COM-NC) must be 
opened.
2. When the oven door is opened, the contacts (COM-NO) of 
the switch must be opened. And the contacts (COM-NC) 
must be closed.
2. STOP SWITCH
1. When the oven door is closed, the contacts (COM-NO) of the 
switch must be closed.
2. When the oven door is opened, the contacts (COM-NO) of 
switch must be opened.
3. MONITOR SWITCH
The  monitor  switch  is  activated  (the  contacts  opened)  by  the 
upper latch head on the door while the door is closed. The switch 
is intended to render the oven inoperative by means of blowing 
the fuse F8A when the contacts of the monitored latch switch fail 
to open when the door is opened.
Function
1. When the door is opened, the contacts (COM-NC) of monitor 
switch close (to the ON condition) due to their being normally 
closed  and  contacts  (COM-NO)  open. At  this  time  the 
contacts (COM-NO) of monitored latch switch is 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 (COM-NC) are opened and contacts (COM-NO) 
closed and then contacts (COM-NO) of monitored latch 
switch and stop switch are closed.(On opening the door, 
each of these switches operate inversely.)
3.  If the door is opened and the monitored latch switch contacts 
(COM-NO) fail to open, the fuse F8A blows immediately after 
closing of the monitor switch (COM-NC) contacts.
CAUTION: BEFORE  REPLACING A  BLOWN  FUSE  F8A, 
TEST THE  MONITORED  LATCH  SWITCH AND 
MONITOR SWITCH FOR PROPER OPERATION. 
 
(REFER TO CHAPTER “TEST PROCEDURE”).
[3] FUSE
1. FUSE 20A 250V
If the wire harness or electrical components are shortcircuited, 
this fuse blows to prevent an electric shock or fire hazard.
2. FUSE F8A 250V
1. If the wire harness or electrical components are shortcircuited, 
this fuse blows to prevent an electric shock or fire hazard.
2. The fuse also blows when the monitored latch switch remains 
closed with the oven door open and when the monitor switch 
contact (COM-NC) closes.
3. The fuse also blows when the asymmetric rectifier, H.V. 
rectifier, H.V. wire harness, H.V. capacitor, magnetron or 
secondary winding of high voltage transformer is shorted.
[4] TC TRANSFORMER
T/C  transformer  converts A.C.  line  voltage  into  low  voltage  to 
drive the control unit.
[5] THERMAL CUT-OUT
1. THERMAL CUT-OUT 125°C (MG)
This thermal cut-out protects the magnetron against overheat. 
If the temperature goes up higher than 125°C because the fan 
motor is interrupted or the ventilation openings are blocked, the 
thermal  cut-out  will  open  and  line  voltage  to  the  high  voltage 
transformer will cut off and operation of the magnetron will be 
stopped. The defective thermal cut-out must be replaced with a 
new one.
2. THERMAL CUT-OUT 145°C (OVEN)
This thermal cut-out protects against overheating /fire inside the 
oven. The cut-out contacts will open when temperatures exceed 
145°C.  When  the  cut-out  cools  itself  down  to  the  operating 
temperature  of  115°C,  the  contacts  of  the  thermal  cut-out  will 
close again.
[6] ASYMMETRIC RECTIFIER
The asymmetric rectifier is solid state device that prevents current 
flow is both directions. And it prevents the temperature rise of the 
high voltage transformer by blowing the fuse F8A when the high 
voltage rectifier is shorted.
The rated peak reverse voltage of D1 of the asymmetric rectifier 
is 6 KV. The rated peak reverse voltage of D2 of the asymmetric 
rectifier is 1.7 KV. D1 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 the blowing the fuse F8A.)

2.  The peak reverse voltage of D2 of the rectifier goes beyond 
the rated peak reverse voltage 1.7 KV in the voltage doubler 
circuit.
3.  D2 of the rectifier is shorted.
4. The large electric currents flow through the high voltage 
winding of the high voltage transformer.
5. The  large  electric  currents  beyond  8A  flow  through  the 
primary winding of the high voltage transformer.
6. The fuse F2 F8A blows by the large electric currents.
7. The power supplying to the high voltage transformer is cut off.
[7] NOISE FILTER
The noise filter assembly prevents radio frequency interference 
that might flow back in the power circuit.
[8] MOTOR
1. TURNTABLE MOTOR
The turntable motor rotates the turntable.
2. FAN MOTOR
The  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 vapours given off 
from heating food. It is then exhausted through the exhausting 
air vents of the oven cavity.
3. CONVECTION MOTOR
The convection motor drives the convection fan and provide the 
heated air.
[9] HEATING ELEMENT
1. TOP GRILL HEATING ELEMENT
The grill heating element is provided to brown the food and is 
located on the top of the oven cavity.
2. BOTTOM GRILL HEATING ELEMENT
The grill heating element is provided to brown the food and is 
located at the base of the oven cavity.
[10] CONVECTION COOKING SYSTEM
This oven is designed with a hot air heating system where food 
is heated by forced circulation of the hot air produced by the grill 
heating elements. 
The air heated by the grill heating elements is circulated through 
the convection passage provided on the outer casing of the oven 
cavity  by  means  of  the  convection  fan  which  is  driven  by  the 
convection motor. It is then enters the inside of the oven through 
the vent holes provided on the back side of the oven. Next, the 
hot air heats the food on the turntable and leaves the oven cavity 
through the vent in the oven cavity rear wall. 
In this way, the hot air circulates inside the oven cavity to raise 
its temperature and, at the same time, comes into contact with 
the food being cooked. When the temperature inside the oven 
cavity reaches the selected temperature, the heating elements 
are de-energized. When the temperature inside the oven cavity 
drops  below  the  selected  temperature,  the  heating  elements 
are energized again. In this way, the inside of the oven cavity is 
maintained at approximately the selected temperature. 
When  the  convection  time  reaches  “0”,  the  heating  elements 
are  de-energized  and  the  convection  fan  stops  operating  and 
the oven shuts off. At that time if the cavity air temperature has 
rised above 120°C, the fan motor remains rotating. Automatically 
the fan motor will be shut down at low temperature (less than 
105°C).

[11] FIRE SENSING FEATURE
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 32-seconds time base since the oven 
is started in microwave cooking condition. The oven will stop its 
operation when the difference of the voltage is more than 0.781 
volts in microwave cooking condition.
1. Within a 32-seconds base, the thermistor is energized for 2 
seconds. At that time, the voltage across the temperature 
measurement circuit is measured.
2. The oven carries out the procedure above again. If the second 
voltage is 0.781V higher than first voltage, LSI judges it as a 
fire in the oven cavity and stop the oven.
3. When LSI judges it as a fire in the oven cavity, LSI will switch 
off the relays to high voltage transformer and fan motor and 
LSI stops countering down.

is started in convection, grill (top and bottom grills) or combi 
cooking mode, the oven is turned off.
2.  When the thermistor or the wire harness to the thermistor is 
opened, the oven is turned off after 4 minutes and 15 seconds 
because this condition is same as above.
