THIS SERVICE MANUAL IS INTENDED FOR USE BY PERSONS HAVING ELECTRICAL AND MECHANICAL TRAINING AND A LEVEL OF KNOWLEDGE OF THESE SUBJECTS GENERALLY CONSIDERED ACCEPTABLE IN THE APPLIANCE REPAIR TRADE. ELECTROLUX HOME PRODUCTS CANNOT BE RESPONSIBLE, NOR ASSUME ANY LIABILITY, FOR INJURY OR DAMAGE OF ANY KIND ARISING FROM THE USE OF THIS MANUAL.
Before servicing an operative unit, perform a microwave emission check as per the Microwave Measurement Procedure outlined in this service manual. If microwave emissions level is in excess of the specified limit, contact ELECTROLUX HOME PRODUCTS, INC. immediately. If the unit operates with the door open, service person should: 1) Tell the user not to operate the oven.
Basic Information MICROWAVE OVENS CONTAIN CIRCUITRY CAPABLE OF PRODUCING VERY HIGH VOLTAGE AND CURRENT. CONTACT WITH THE FOLLOWING PARTS MAY RESULT IN A SEVERE, POSSIBLY FATAL, ELECTRICAL SHOCK. INVERTER UNIT, THAT INCLUDES HIGH VOLTAGE CAPACITOR, HIGH VOLTAGE POWER TRANSFORMER, HIGH VOLTAGE RECTIFIER, HEAT SINK ETC., AND MAGNETRON, HIGH VOLTAGE HARNESS ETC..
Basic Information Microwave Measurement Procedure (USA) A. Requirements: 1) Microwave leakage limit (Power density limit): The power density of microwave radiation emitted by a microwave oven should not exceed 1 mW/cm 2 at any point 5 cm or more from the external surface of the oven, measured prior to acquisition by a purchaser, and thereafter (through the useful life of the oven), 5 mW/cm 2 at any point 5 cm or more from the external surface of the oven.
Basic Information Microwave Measurement Procedure (Canada) After adjustment of the door switches are completed individually or collectively, switch test and microwave leakage test must be performed with survey instrument and test result must be confirmed to meet the requirement of the performance standard for microwave ovens as under mentioned.
Basic Information Grounding Instructions Discharging Capacitor High Voltage Warning! This oven is equipped with a three prong grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly Do not attempt to measure any of the high voltages, installed and grounded in accordance with the National this includes the filament voltage of the magnetron.

Installation and Operation Installation The microwave oven is supported by a special bracket assembly (mounting system) supplied with the oven. The bracket assembly must be mounted to the wall with toggle bolts through the wall, and a lag screw into a wall stud. After the bracket assembly is installed, the unit can be slid over the two rails of the bracket assembly.
Installation and Operation Lighting and Filters COOKTOP LIGHTS One 20-watt halogen bulb is located on the bottom. The bulb is user replaceable by removing one screw and lowering access cover. The bulb could be difficult to remove when replaced for the first time. A silicone glue Remove Screw is used to secure them during shipping.
Troubleshooting and Error Codes Troubleshooting Guide If the fuse is blown by the Interlock Monitor Switch: Replace all of the following at the same time: Primary, door sensing switch and power relay, as well as the Interlock Monitor Switch. The correct adjustment of these switches is described elsewhere in this manual.
Troubleshooting and Error Codes Symptom Cause Corrections Oven is dead. 1. Open or loose lead wire harness. Check fan motor when thermal Fuse is OK. 2. Open thermal cutout (Magnetron) cutout is defective. Check Assembly 3. Open low voltage transformer. No display and no PCB when low voltage transformer is 4.

To discharge the high voltage capacitor, wait for 60 seconds and then short-circuit the connection of the high-voltage capacitor (that is the connecting lead of the high-voltage rectifier) against the...
Component Teardown and Testing 6. The output power is obtained by the following High Voltage Diode Testing formula: 1. Isolate the diode from the circuit by disconnecting its leads. 2. With the ohm-meter set at the highest resistance scale, measure across the diode terminals. Reverse the meter leads and read the resistance.
Component Teardown and Testing Vent Blower Testing The blower is a two speed (HI-LO) capacitor run blower assembly located on top of the microwave oven. The blower is operated by low voltage relays located on the Damper Assembly smart board. The blower motor has 3 winding which can be tested for continuity from the front by removing the top grille and opening the control panel.
