Described on samsung.com as Over-the-Range Microwave Fingerprint Resistant | 1000W Power 1.7 cu.ft., the ME17F7021 is a 1.7 cu. ft. over-the-range microwave. Because the ME17F7021 hangs over a cooktop it does two jobs, and its parts list is longer than a countertop unit’s: a vent fan, a cooktop light, a grease filter and a heat sensor that starts the fan on its own sit alongside the magnetron, transformer, capacitor, diode and door switches.
Everything behind the cabinet of the ME17F7021 – the fuse, the door switches, the diode, the capacitor and the magnetron – is tested on site by a technician who discharges the high-voltage circuit first; owner checks stop at the outlet, the breaker, whether the door closes fully and whether the turntable is seated.
