Whenever the door is closed and a through the control panel. The normally-closed (N.C.) contacts of relay 4 provide a potential circuit for the Base Thermal Fuse (see the following strip circuit).

If the base of the oven exceeds 133˚F, the thermal fuse contacts close, and a circuit for the low-speed side of the blower motor is completed, which turns the motor on.

To avoid possible exposure to microwave radiation or energy, visually check the oven for damage to the door and door seal before operating any oven. KitchenAid microwave ovens have a monitoring system designed to assure proper operation of the safety interlock systems.

The interlock monitor switch will immediately cause the oven fuse to blow if the door is opened and the primary door interlock switch and/or the secondary interlock switch contacts fail in a closed position.
