DOOR REPLACEMENT AND ADJUSTMENT
DOOR REPLACEMENT
1. Disconnect oven from power supply and remove
outer case.
2. Remove two (2) screws holding lower oven hinge.
3. Remove the oven hinge from the door.
4. Remove door assembly from upper oven hinge.
5. On re-installing door, insert the upper oven hinge
into the door hinge pin.
6. Insert the lower oven hinge into the door hinge pin.
Then while holding the door in place secure the
lower oven hinge firmly with the two (2) mounting
screws.
7. Make sure door is parallel with ven face lines (left
and upper side lines) and the door latch heads pass
through the latch holes correctly.
Note: After any service to the door;
(A) Make sure that the upper latch switch, and
lower latch switch switches are operating
properly.
(Refer to chapter “Test Procedures”.).
(B) An approved microwave survey meter should
be used to assure compliance with proper
microwave radiation
emission
limitation
standards.
DOOR ADJUSTMENT
The door can be adjusted by keeping the screws of
each hinge loose.
After adjustment, make sure of the following :
1. Door latch heads smoothly catch, the latch hooks
through the latch holes, and also the latch head
goes through the center of the latch hole.
2. Deviation of the door alignment from horizontal line
of cavity face plate is to be less than 1 .Omm.
3. The door is positioned with its face depressed to-
ward the cavity face plate.
4. Re-install outer case and check for microwave
leakage around the door with an approved micro-
wave survey meter.
(Refer to Microwave Measurement Procedure.)
Note: The door on a microwave oven is designed to
act as an electronic seal preventing the leakage
of microwave energy from the oven cavity during
the cook cycle. This function does not require
that
the door be
air-tight, moisture
(condensation)-tight or light-tight. Therefore,
the occasional apperance of moisture, light or
the sensing of gentle warm air movement around
the oven door is not abnormal and do not of
themselves, indicate a leakage of microwave en-
ergy from the oven cavity. If such were the case,
your oven could not be equipped with a vent,
the very purpose of which is to exhaust the
vapor-laden air from the oven cavity.
