hook right. The secondary interlock switch is in the
lower position of the latch hook left. And the monitor
switch is in the upper position of the latch hook left.

and check continuity of the monitor circuit. Refer to
chapter “Test Procedure” and “Adjustment procedure.

If the door sensing switch, 3rd. latch switch, secondary
interlock switch and monitor switch do not operate prop-
erly due to a misadjustment, the following adjustment
should be made.
1. CARRY OUT 3D CHECKS.
2. Loosen each one (1) screw holding the latch hook right

and the latch hook left to the oven cavity front plate.

hook left by moving them back and forth, and up and
down. In and out play of the door allowed by the latch
hook right and the latch hook left should be less than 0.5
mm. The vertical position of the latch hook right and the
latch hook left should be adjusted so that the door

sensing switch and the secondary interlock switch are
activated with the door closed. The horizontal position of
the latch hook right and the latch hook left should be
adjusted so that the plungers of the 3rd. latch switch and
monitor switch are pressed with the door closed.

4. Secure the screws firmly.
5. Check all of the switches operation. If any switch has

not activated with the door closed, loosen the screws
and adjust the position of the latch hook right and the
latch hook left.

After adjustment, check the following.
1. In and out play of the door remains less than 0.5 mm

when in the latched position. First check the position of

1. Loosen the screws holding the oven hinge right and the

oven hinge left to the bottom plate with screwdriver.

2. Adjust the door by moving it so that the door is parallel

with the oven cavity front plate lines (right and left side
lines) and the door latch heads pass through the latch
holes correctly.

3. Tighten the screws holding the oven hinge right and the

oven hinge left to the bottom plate.

After adjustment, make sure of the following:
1. The door latch heads smoothly catch the latch hooks

through latch holes and the latch heads goes through
centre of latch holes.

2. The door is positioned with its face pressed toward

oven cavity front plate.

3. Reinstall the outer case cabinet and check for

microwave leakage around the door with an approved
microwave survey meter. (Refer to Microwave
Measurement Procedure.)

After any repair, the microwave oven must be checked for
microwave leakage to ensure continued safe operation.
BS EN 60335-2-25 specifies that the maximum permitted
leakage with a load of 275 ml is 50 W/m

2 

(equivalent to 5

mW/cm

2

)

 

at  a distance of 5 cm from the oven.

The following items are required to carry out this test:-
1.  A low form of 600 ml beaker made from an electrically

non-conductive material, such as glass or plastic, with
an inside diameter of approximately 8.5 cm. This must
contain 275 

±

 15 ml of water, at an initial temperature

of 20 

±

 2˚C.

2. A leakage detector which has been calibrated within

the preceding 12 months to a stand whose accuracy
can be traced to National Physical Laboratory
Standards.

Recommended instruments are:

Apollo "XI"
Celtec "A100"

Before commencing the test, check that the leakage
detector is functioning and adjusted according to the
manufacturer's instructions, and any spacers are fitted to
ensure that measurement is taken 5cm from the surface of
the oven.

1. Place the beaker containing the water load in the oven

cavity at the centre of the turntable. The placing of this
standard load in the oven is important, not only to
protect the oven, but also to ensure that any leakage it
is not disguised by too large a load absorbing energy.

2. Close the oven door, and with the power level set to

FULL, turn the oven ON with the timer set for a few
minutes operation. Should the water begin to boil
before the test has been completed, it should be
replaced.

3. As shown in the diagram below, move the probe slowly

(not faster than 2.5 cm/sec.);-

a) around the edge of the door following the gap
b) across the face of the door
c) across any vents in the oven's sides, rear or top

Dotted line indicates the path taken by the leakage detector.
