A. Introduction 10 minutes One of the most widely spread types of technical documentation is manual.
Panimula Nowadays, practically everything that surrounds us has a manual. One of these is
a Service Manual. It helps technicians and other trained people service, maintain,
and repair equipment. It usually contains information on the problems and
breakages that may occur and guidelines on how to fix them. It is different from a
user manual that assists people to use a particular system or device.

DOMESTIC APPLIANCES
1. Electric Oven
Electric oven is a thermally insulated chamber used for heating, baking,
or drying of a substance, and most used for cooking. Kilns and furnaces are
special- purpose ovens used in pottery and metal works and operates with the
use of electricity. Electric oven is widely used in home and in business industries,
bakery, and fast foods.
An electric oven is a baking chamber. It is either part of an electric range or
a stand-alone appliance without the cooktop. It is a 240/120-volt circuit–240 volts
for the heating elements and 120 volts for the accessories. A thermostat senses
and regulates oven temperature. Time and temperatures are regulated by an
electric timer motor or by a digital controller. Most electric ovens have two
heating elements, the main one on the bottom of the chamber and another
one on the top, typically used for broiling.

Installer Technical Manual


This appliance is marked according to the European directive 2011/65/EU
(RoHS), also this appliance is marked according to the European directive
2012/19/EU on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE). This guideline
is the frame of a European-wide validity of return and recycling on Waste
Electrical and Electronic Equipment.

Important Information for Installing the Appliance


The cooker can be installed separately, as a freestanding unit, or
between kitchen units or between a kitchen unit and the wall. The device must be
installed in accordance with the regulations stated in UNI 7129 and UNI 7131
standards. This appliance is not connected to devices which exhaust
combustion products. Special attention must be focused on the prescriptions
described below regarding room aeration and ventilation. Any hanging cabinets
installed above the work surface must be located at no less than 700 mm.
ROOM VENTILATION is needed to ensure that the appliance operates correctly.
The room where it is installed must be continuously ventilated. The room volume
should not be less than 25 m³ and the quantity of air needed shall be based on
the regular combustion of gas and on the ventilation of the room. Natural air will
flow through permanent openings in the walls of the room to be ventilated: these
openings will relate to the outside environment and shall have a minimum cross-
section defined by the current national standards
regarding room ventilation. These openings shall be built so that they cannot
be

clogged. Indirect ventilation is also permitted by taking air from the rooms
adjacent to the one to be ventilated.

Appliance Electrical Connection:


The electric connection must comply with the current legal standards and
regulations. Before making the connection, check that: - The system electrical
rating and the current outlets are adequate for the maximum power output of the
appliance (see the label applied to the bottom of the casing). - The outlet or
the system is equipped with an efficient ground connection in accordance with
the current legal standards and regulations. The company will not be
responsible for the non-compliance with these instructions. When the
connection to the power supply network is made using an outlet: - If the
power cord is supplied without a plug, apply a standard plug that is suitable
for the load indicated on the label. Connect the wires according to the diagram
Check that: letter L (phase) = brown wire; letter N (neutral) = blue wire; ground
symbol = green-yellow wire; - The power cord must be positioned so that an
overtemperature of 75 K will not be reached at any point. - Do not use reductions,
adapters, or splitters since they might cause false contacts and lead to
dangerous overheating. When the connection is made directly to the electric
network: - Use a device that ensures disconnection from the mains in which the
contacts are opened to a distance that permits complete disconnection
according to the conditions for over-voltage category III. - Remember that the
ground wire must not be interrupted by the circuit-breaker. - As an alternative,
the electric connection can also be protected by a high- sensitivity residual
current circuit-breaker. - It is highly recommended to attach the special green-
yellow ground wire to an efficient ground system. WARNING: If the power cord is
replaced, the ground wire (yellow green) connected to the terminal, should be
longer than the other wires by about 2 cm.

3. Microwave Oven
A microwave oven is a relatively small, boxlike
oven that raises the temperature of food by
subjecting it to a high-frequency electromagnetic
field. Microwave ovens generate radiation at a
frequency of about 2,450 megahertz by means of
a magnetron, which is a kind of electron tube.

Microwave ovens are generally used for time efficiency in both industrial
applications such as restaurants and at home, rather than for cooking quality,
although some modern recipes using microwave ovens rival recipes using
traditional ovens and stoves. They have a central heated anode which is the
source of electrons. These are several identical tuned cavities a very strong
magnet, and a small antenna to extract the energy. They are usually made of
metal but operate on the same principles that glass thermionic valves do.

Important Safety Precautions:


When using electrical appliances basic safety precautions should be followed,
including the following:
1) Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2) Read and follow the specific: “PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE
TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY”.
