the latched position. First check upper position of latch hook, pushing and pulling upper portion of door toward the oven face. Then check lower portion of the latch hook, pushing and pulling lower portion of the door toward the oven face. Both results (play in the door) should be less than 0.5mm.

2.The door sensing switch and secondary interlock switch interrupt the circuit before the door can be opened.

3.Monitor switch contacts close when door is opened.

4.The contact of door sensing switch and secondary interlock switch open within 1.2mm gap between right side of cavity face plate and door when door is open.
