survey meter. (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 the oven cavity during cook
cycle. This function does not require that the door
be airtight, moisture (condensation)-tight or light-
tight. Therefore, occasional appearance of moisture,
light or sensing of gentle warm air movement around
the oven door is not abnormal and do not of
themselves indicate a leakage of microwave energy
from the oven cavity. If such were the case, your
oven could not be equipped with a vent, the very
purpose of which is exhaust the vapor-laden air
from the oven cavity.
