13 COOK The oven sets the cooking time and power level for a specific food category. To Use Cook: 1. Touch COOK. 2. Select food type, see guide. 3. Enter weight in ounces. 4. Touch START. NOTE: To display the food type and remaining cooking time, touch the COOK pad. SENSOR COOKING FEATURES (JVM MODELS ONLY) Note: Don't use metal shelf with Sensor Cooking. SENSOR COOKING CONDITION Using the sensor assisted cooking codes, the foods are cooked without calculating time, power level or quantity. When the oven senses enough steam from the food, it relays the information to the microprocessor which will calculate the remaining cooking time and power level needed for best results. When the food is cooked, water vapor is developed. The sensor "senses" the vapor and its resistance increases gradually. When the resistance reaches the value set according to the menu, supplementary cooking is started. The time of supplementary cooking is determined by experiment with each food category and entered into the microprocessor. An example of how the sensor works: (POTATOES) 1. Potatoes at room temperature. Vapor is emitted very slowly. 2. Heated potatoes. Moisture and humidity are emitted rapidly. 3. The sensor detects the moisture and humidity and calculates cooking time and variable power. SENSOR COOKING PREFERENCE CONTROL When using the sensor assisted cooking codes, except for CANNED VEG and FROZEN VEG, it is possible to adjust the oven cooking time by 10%. To Use Sensor Cooking Preference Control: - By immediately touching the number I pad after touching a sensor assisted pad the oven will turn off 10% sooner. - By pressing the number 9 pad after touching a sensor assisted pad the oven will cook 10% longer. BEVERAGE This instant on pad reheats beverages by sensing the steam with the sensor system. NOTE: Maximum heating time is 4: 00, preference control not available on beverage pad. 12

14 POPCORN The POPCORN feature is a pre-programmed function that uses the humidity sensor to automatically select the correct cooking time. NOTE: Use of the metal shelf with the popcorn pad is not recommended. This feature works best when the popcorn contents are in the ounces range. Maximum heating time is 4:10. To Use Popcorn: 1. Remove the outer wrapper from the microwave popcorn. 2. Open oven door and place package of popcorn in the center of the oven floor as directed by the manufacturer's instructions. Close oven door. 3. Touch POPCORN pad. "POPCORN" appears on the display. Oven turns on instantly. 4. The popcorn sensor automatically calculates the cooking time. After the popcorn sensor detects steam, the oven signals and displays remaining cooking time needed. 5. When cooking is completed, the oven signals and scrolls "FOOD IS READY". Open the door and remove the popcorn. How to adjust the Popcorn Program to provide a shorter or longer cook time: If popcorn is undercooked you can make an adjustment by adding time. - Touch the POPCORN pad and then touch number pad 9 once. The word "POP +" will appear on the display adding 20 seconds to the cook time. If the 9 pad is pressed for the second time "POP ++" will appear on the display adding another 10 seconds for a total of 30 seconds. If popcorn is overcooked you can make an adjustment by subtracting time. - Touch the POPCORN pad and then touch number pad I once. The word "POP -" will appear on the display subtracting 20 seconds to the cook time. If the I pad is pressed for the second time "POP --" will appear on the display subtracting another 10 seconds for a total of 3 0 seconds. REHEAT With this feature the oven automatically adjusts its heating time to various types and amounts of precooked food by sensing the steam that escapes as food heats. Do not open the oven door while the word "REHEAT" IS DISPLAYED, steam escaping will affect oven performance. REHEAT is an instant on function. No need to press start after selecting REHEAT. NOTE: Best results are obtained with foods you want to steam or retain moisture (must be covered). Maximum heating time is 5:00 13

Chicken Pieces Ground Meat 12:00 6: pieces 1/2-3 lbs OPERATION DESCRIPTION OF OPERATING SEQUENCE The following is a description of component functions during oven operation. OFF CONDITION Closing the door activates the door sensing and primary interlock switches. (In this condition, the monitor switch contacts are opened.) When oven is plugged in, 120 volts A.C. is supplied to the smart board. The display panel lights up for 15 seconds then "PLEASE PRESS CLOCK" scrolls. Touch the CLOCK pad to set the clock and the oven is ready for use. If power is disrupted at any time, the above sequence recurs, and you must reset the clock after touching the CLEAR/OFF pad. COOKING CONDITION When the START pad is touched the following occurs: 1. Relay contacts are closed and the following components are turned on: Main Relay oven lamp/fan motor/stirrer motor Power Relay power transformer volts A.C. is supplied to the primary winding of the power transformer through the contacts of relay 2 and is converted to about 3.3 volts A.C. output on the filament winding, and approximately volts on the high voltage winding. 3. The filament winding voltage heats the magnetron filament and the H.V. is sent to a voltage doubler circuit The microwave energy produced by the magnetron is channeled through the wave guide into the cavity feedbox, and then into the cavity where the food is to be cooked. 5. Upon completion of the cooking time, the power transformer, oven lamp, etc. are turned off and the generation of microwave energy is stopped. The oven will revert to the OFF condition. 6. When the door is opened during a cook cycle, the monitor switch, door sensing switch, primary interlock switch and power relay are deactivated with the following results: The circuits to the cooling fan motor and the high voltage components are deenergized, the oven lamp remains on and the digital readout displays the time remaining in the cook cycle when the door was opened. 7. The monitor switch electrically monitors the operation of the primary interlock switch and the power relay and is mechanically associated with the door so that it will function in the following sequence: When the door opens, the primary interlock switch, power relay and door sensing switch open their contacts, then the monitor switch contacts close.

17 KEY PANEL The key panel has I ribbon connector on smart board. If necessary, the key panel pads can be checked by a continuity test. For ease of handling, the key panel or control should be removed and placed on a flat surface. Part of the ribbon connections are on one side and the remainder on the other side. Pad operation can be checked between connections at end of ribbon (use high Ohms scale). Use mini-manual to identify connectors. To Replace Key Panel: Separate smart board and control trim/key panel asm. Replace with new control trim/key panel asm. CONTROL TRANSFORMER The control transformer is mounted on the smartboard. TO SERVICE: Lower control panel and unplug leads to smart board. Remove smartboard and replace. DOOR SENSING AND PRIMARY INTERLOCK SWITCHES The primary interlock switch is mounted to the plastic switch bracket on the bottom, the monitor is in the middle and the door sensing switch is mounted to the upper portion of the plastic switch bracket. The power relay is mounted on the smart board. They are activated by the latch heads on the door. When the door is opened, the switches interrupt the circuit to all components, except the oven lamp. A cook cycle cannot take place until the door is firmly closed thereby activating both interlock switches. The primary interlock system consists of the door sensing switch, primary interlock switch and power relay. MONITOR SWITCH The monitor switch is operated (the contacts opened) indirectly by the bottom latch pawl. The pawl operates a cam switch, which in turn, actuates the monitor switch. The switch is intended to render the oven inoperative by means of blowing the monitor fuse when the contacts of the primary interlock switch and power relay fail to open when the door is opened. Functions: I. When the door is opened, the monitor switch contact closes (to the ON condition). At this time the primary interlock switch and power relay are in the OFF condition (contacts open). 2. As the door goes to a closed position, the monitor switch contacts are first opened and then the door sensing switch and the primary interlock switch contacts close. (On opening the door, each of these switches operate inversely.)

MICROWAVE LEAKAGE TEST A microwave leakage test MUST BE PERFORMED an time a door is removed, replaced, disassembled, or adjusted for any reason. THE MAXIMUM LEAKAGE IS 4MW/CM 2 18 GUIDELINES FOR ADJUSTMENT OF DOOR SENSING, PRIMARY INTERLOCK AND MONITOR SWITCH If the door sensing switch, primary interlock switch and monitor switch do not operate properly due to a misadjustment, the following adjustment should be made 1. Loosen the two (2) screws holding latch switch bracket to the component compartment flange. 2. With door closed, adjust latch switch bracket by moving it back and forth, and up and down. In and out play of the door allowed by the upper and lower position of the latch switch bracket should be less than 0.5mm (.02"). The vertical position of the latch switch bracket should be placed where the door sensing switch and primary interlock switch have activated with the door closed. 3. Firmly secure the screws with washers. 4. Check the door sensing switch operation. If the door sensing switch has not activated with the door closed, loosen screw and adjust the latch switch bracket. After adjustment, check the following: 1. In and out play of door remains less than 0.5mm (.02") when in latched position. First check upper position of latch switch bracket, pushing and pulling upper portion of door toward tile oven face. Then check lower portion of the latch switch bracket, pushing and pulling lower portion of the door toward the oven face. Both results (movement of the door) should be less than 0.5mm (.02"). 2. The door sensing switch and primary interlock switch interrupt the circuit before the door can be opened. 3. Monitor switch contacts close when door is opened. 4. Reinstall outer case and check for microwave leakage around door with an approved microwave survey meter.

20 DOOR ASSEMBLY The door assembly will be available as a complete assembly with handle. The handle will also be available as a separate part as will the rest of the door as seen in the door breakdown. To Adjust Door: (Alignment with control panel) 1. Remove top grille - 2 screws. 2. Remove bottom panel - 3 screws at front. 3. Loosen top and bottom 5/16" hinge screws. The screw holes are slotted to allow for minimal movement. Align door and tighten screws. 5. Check interlocks and monitor for proper operation. Check door for microwave leakage with approved meter. To Remove Door: 1. Remove power, top grille and short out capacitor 2. Remove the 4 (2 on top & 2 on bottom) 5/16" head screws on door hinges and #2 phillips head screw on top. 3. Door will pull away from unit with the hinges attached to the door. 4. When reinstalling door reverse procedure and a to the control panel before securing door hinge screws. NOTE: Door on a microwave oven is designed to act as an electronic seal preventing the leakage of microwave energy from oven cavity during cook cycle. This function does not require that door be airtight, moisture (condensation) tight or light-tight. Therefore, occasional appearance of moisture, light or sensing of gentle warm air movement around oven door is not abnormal an do not of themselves, indicate a leakage of microwave energy from oven cavity. If such were the case, the oven could not be equipped with a vent, the very purpose of which is to exhaust vapor-laden air from oven cavity. To Remove Door Handle: With door open: 1. Remove inner door trim. 2. Remove door handle screws. TOP HINGE TOP HINGE HINGE SCREWS DOOR BOTTOM HINGE BOTTOM HINGE DOOR HINGE SCREWS HANDLE AVAILABLE AS A SEPARATE PART 19

21 ANTENNA A motor drives the antenna assembly and is located at the top of the cavity. This oven uses a top feed wave guide. The antenna blade rests on a depression inside the antenna cover. An antenna motor shaft fits into the assembly to drive it. When the antenna cover is removed the antenna slides off the antenna motor shaft. To Remove the Antenna: 1. Carefully pry down, using a very small (pocket) flat blade screwdriver, the push pin (fastener) located in the antenna cover. 2. Turn the antenna cover counterclockwise, this will free the tabs that are captured by the spaces built into the ceiling. STIRRER MOTOR STIRRER COVER ANTENNA (stirrer blade) Can be accessed from inside oven cavity by removing stirrer cover. GLASS TURNTABLE COUPLER Coupler drive motor must be removed prior to removing coupler TURNTABLE SUPPORT TURNTABLE DRIVE MOTOR To Remove Antenna Motor: 1. Disconnect power and remove grille. 2. Remove antenna/light cover. 3. Release wiring to motor. 4. Remove two screws (snubby screwdriver) holding motor to waveguide. 5. Lift and remove motor. TURNTABLE The turntable shelf is made of a ceramic type material and the supporter ring that it rests on is plastic. The shelf also sits on and is turned by the motor coupling, which can turn in either direction. The turntable shelf must be used when using oven. The turntable motor is mounted to the bottom of the cavity. The bottom plate of the microwave covers the motor and has to be lowered to gain access to the two screws that secure motor. To Remove Turntable: 1. Disconnect oven from power supply. HIGH VOLTAGE CAPACITOR 2. Remove ceramic shelf and supporter from cavity. The high voltage capacitor should always be discharged 3.

If the capacitor is open, no high voltage will be available to NOTE: The turntable motor is 23V, and is NOT interchangeable with the antenna motor. short or open between the terminal using an the magnetron. Disconnect input leads and check for ohmmeter. 20

22 Checking with a high ohm scale, if the high voltage capacitor is normal, the meter will indicate continuity for a short time and should indicate an open circuit once the capacitor is charged. If the above is not the case, check the capacitor with an ohmmeter to see if it is shorted between either of the terminals and case. If it is shorted, replace the capacitor. To Replace Capacitor: 1. Disconnect power. Remove grille. 2. Discharge capacitor and disconnect leads. 3. Remove mounting screw that secures capacitor bracket. 4. Slide mounting bracket out of slot and pull out capacitor. WHITE WIRE TO HV TRANSFORMER RECTIFIER/DIODE The rectifier is located in the upper right hand portion of the service area next to the capacitor. It can be checked for continuity in one direction and an open in the opposite direction (meter must be able to forward bias rectifier). If a short is indicated in both directions, or if an infinite resistance is read in both directions, the rectifier is probably defective and should be replaced. To Replace Rectifier/Diode: 1. Disconnect power. Lower control to service position. 2. Discharge capacitor and disconnect leads to capacitor. 3. Remove mounting screw that secures capacitor bracket and diode ground screw. 4. Slide mounting bracket out of slot and pull out capacitor/ diode assembly. 5. Remove diode which is mounted to capacitor with one screw. HUMIDITY SENSOR REMOVE COVER TO ACCESS STIRRER MOTOR AND THERMAL CUTOUT CAVITY THERMAL CUTOUT THERMAL CUTOUTS (TCO'S) There are 4 different thermal cutouts in this unit with 4 different purposes. They are: 1. Oven thermal cutout (flame sensor), on cavity top. 2. Hood thermal cutout, inside control area on duct. 3. Bottom thermal cutout, on floor of control area. 4. Magnetron thermal cutout, on rnagnetron. OVEN THERMAL CUTOUT (FLAME SENSOR) The Oven Thermal cutout (Cavity TCO) is located on the top side of the oven cavity, to the left of the humidity sensor by the cavity exhaust. The thermal cutout is rated at F. (100 0 C) and is nonresettable. If thermal cutout opens, look for cause. If there was a fire in the cavity all wiring must be inspected to insure that insulation from the wires was not burned or melted away. 1. Remove screw holding cover and remove cover. 2. Slide cutout from retaining clip and remove wiring. NOTE: if this cutout opened there would only be power up to lead from the fuse. Everything behind it would be dead. STIRRER MOTOR ALL COMPONENTS REPLACEABLE WITHOUT REMOVING OUTER CASE 21 BOTTOM THERMAL CUTOUT HOOD FAN THERMAL CUTOUT

23 HOOD THERMAL CUTOUT This cutout will protect the touch control from excessive heat by turning the vent fan on at low speed. If the surface units of the range are used for long periods of time heat will build up and could damage the microwave control. In order to prevent this a thermal cut out is installed on the duct behind the control. This cutout will close (158'F- vent fan energized) and open (104'F- vent fan de-energized) depending on temperatures it senses. To Remove Hood Cutout: 1. Disconnect power and put touch control in service position. 2. Remove two wire leads and unscrew two screws capturing cutout on duct. NOTE: If this cutout were to open it would be difficult to detect. The only time it functions is during an overheat condition. It will he normally open when checked with an ohmmeter. BOTTOM THERMAL CUTOUT During a fire on the stove the heat could be intense enough to close the Hood Thermal Cutout and force the fan to run. While at moderate high temperatures we do want it to run, however during a fire it is advantageous to NOT have the vent fan running. So if a fire were to start on the stove top the Bottom Thermostat would open (248'F) and remove all power to the microwave oven. This cutout is designed to not be resettable. To Remove Bottom Thermal Cutout: 1. Disconnect power and put touch control in service position. 2. Remove two wire leads and unscrew two screws holding cutout to floor behind touch control. NOTE: If this cutout were to open the microwave oven would be totally dead. It is a normally closed cutout when checked with an ohmmeter for continuity. MAGNETRON THERMAL CUTOUT The magnetron thermal cutout is located above the leads to the magnetron. It is designed to prevent damage to the magnetron if an overheated condition develops in the tube due to cooling fan failure, obstructed air ducts, dirty or blocked air intake. Under normal operation, the magnetron thermal cutout remains closed. However, when abnormally high temperatures are reached within the magnetron, the magnetron thermal cutout will open at 320F causing the oven to shut down. After the temperature drops to 140 O F it will reset and cooking will be able to resume. To Remove Magnetron Thermal Cutout: 1. See Removing Magnetron. NOTE: The Mag TCO is wired across the neutral (return) leg of the power to the board connector. Therefore, the board will go dead but the vent fan and cooktop lights would still operate if the TCO were to open. BOTTOM THERMAL CUTOUT WHITE WIRE TO HV TRANSFORMER HOOD FAN THERMAL CUTOUT 22

24 SENSOR The sensor is a plug-in device located in the air exhaust duct, behind the grille on the left side. To Service: 1. Remove grille. 2. Separate retainer from receptacle and unplug sensor. GAS SENSOR TEST Microwave sensor cooking uses a special gas sensor which detects both humidity (steam) and hydrocarbons (food odors) during the cooking process. Checking the initial sensor cooking condition: 1. The oven should be plugged in at least five minutes before sensor cooking. 2. Room temperature should not exceed 95'F (350C). 3. The unit should not be installed in any area where heat and steam are generated, for example, next to a conventional surface unit. 4. Exhaust vents are provided on the back of the unit for proper cooling and air flow in the cavity. To permit adequate ventilation, be sure to install so as not to block these vents. There should be some space for air circulation. 5. Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and the interior of the oven are dry. Wipe off any moisture with a dry cloth or paper towel. 6. The Sensor works with food at normal storage temperature. For example, chicken pieces would be at refrigerator temperature and canned soup at room temperature. 7. Avoid using aerosol sprays or cleaning solvents near the oven while using Sensor settings. The sensor will detect the vapor given off by the spray and turn off before food is properly cooked. 8. After about 2 to 9 minutes if the sensor has not detected the vapor of the food, ERROR will appear and the oven will shut off. SENSOR TEST (QUICK TEST) 1. With 2 fingers touch and hold the following pads at the same time: 7 and 8 2. Observe diagnostic number in display (numbers approximate) * (Normal -verify with "detection test") * 213 or higher (Sensor failed open, sensor unplugged, wiring, or.smart board) * Less then 6 (shorted sensor, or smart board) NOTE: Only heater terminals (H) can be checked with ohmmeter (30 Ohms). CAUTION- DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CHECK SENSOR TERMINALS (CAN DAMAGE SEN- SOR). 23

25 SENSOR DETECTION TEST 1. Place 1/3 cup tap water in oven. 2. Touch VEGETABLE (jvm1660), oven starts immediately. POPCORN (jvm1650) 3. Control beeps and shuts off. 4. Touch CLEAR/OFF A) Test OK--Normal B) Test Fails--Check Sensor. (see quick test previous page) PROBE RECEPTACLE Receptacle is located on right hand side of cavity. The probe is a sensor that has a thermistor swagged in the tip of a stainless steel tube. The probe can be checked by using an ohmmeter. If inserted into a container of hot water the resistance will visibly drop. To remove probe receptacle: 1. Disconnect power, put touch control in service position. 2. Remove black access cover (2 screws). 3. Remove nut from inside cavity. 4. Unplug wiring from smart board and remove. CABLE END HANDLE SENSOR THE FOLLOWING COMPONENTS REQUIRE REMOVAL OF MICROWAVE OVEN FROM INSTALLATION FOR SERVICING. VENT EXHAUST BLOWER SERVICE The blower is a two speed (HI-LO) capacitor run blower assembly located on top of the spacemaker. The blower is operated by relays located on the smart board. The blower motor has 3 windings which can be tested for continuity from the front by removing the top grille and opening the control panel. To Test Blower Windings: 1. Disconnect power and remove grille. 2. Open control panel and discharge capacitor. 3. Disconnect two wires to run capacitor. Continuity test across the two wires should be approximately 75 ohms of resistance. This test allows you to read across all three windings at the same time. To Remove Vent Blower: 1. Remove unit from its installation. 2. Remove 1 screw under damper, and 2 screws on rear.(1400 series). 3. Remove 1 screw under damper and 1 screw on rear (1600 series). 3. Disconnect blower plug. NOTE: Place blower wires in routing slots to avoid pinching of wires. 24
