the cavity face plate.
4. Re-install outer case and check for microwave leakage
around door with an approved microwave survey me-
ter. (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 oven cavity during cook
cycle. This function does not require that door be
air-tight, moisture (condensation)-tight or light-
tight. Therefore, occasional appearance of mois-
ture, light or sensing of gentle warm air movement
around oven door is not abnormal and do not of
themselves, indicate a leakage of microwave en-
ergy from 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.
