INSTALLATION

WARNING:

Inspect the Oven:

Check the oven carefully for damage before and regularly after installation.

Make sure the door closes properly, that it is not misaligned or warped.

Check the hinges and door safety latches are not broken or loose.

Ensure the door seal and sealing surfaces are not damaged.

Inspect the oven interior and door for dents.

IMPORTANT:

If any damage is apparent, do not operate the oven in any way, until it has been repaired by a SHARP trained engineer.

1.Remove all packing materials including the feature sticker (if applicable). Do not remove the plastic film from the inside of the oven window as this protects it from dirt. The waveguide cover prevents food and grease from entering the waveguide area where it could cause damage. DO NOT REMOVE THE WAVEGUIDE COVER.

2.Place oven on a secure, level surface that is 85cm or more above the floor.

Ensure it is strong enough to take the oven weight, plus the heaviest item likely to be cooked in the oven.

3.The minimum height of free space necessary above the top surface of the oven is 15cm.

4.Do not place the oven where heat, moisture or high humidity are generated, (for example, near or above a conventional oven) or near combustible materials (for example, curtains). Do not block or obstruct air vent openings. Do not place objects on top of the oven.

5.Make sure the power supply cord is undamaged (See “ELECTRICAL CONNECTION” below).

Do not allow the power supply cord to run over any hot or sharp surfaces, such as the hot air vent area at the top rear of the oven.

6.The socket must be readily accessible so that it can be easily unplugged in an emergency.

7.Do not use the oven outdoors.

BUILDING-IN-KIT.

This oven is not designed to be built into a kitchen unit.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION.

Do not allow water to come into contact with the power supply cord or plug.

The heating category (a letter A to E) developed by MAFF (Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food) with microwave oven and food manufacturers indicates the ability of the oven to heat small quantities of food (up to 500g [1lb 2oz]). It does not represent the general performance of the oven.

Food packs carry cooking instructions for heating categories A to E. Follow instructions for the letter corresponding to the oven’s heating category. The higher the output power and heating category of the oven the less heating time is required as shown opposite.

HOW YOUR OVEN WORKS

Microwaves are energy waves, similar to those used for TV and radio signals.

Electrical energy is converted into microwave energy, which is directed into the oven cavity via a waveguide. To prevent food and grease entering the wave guide it is protected by the waveguide cover.

Microwaves cannot pass through metal, because of this the oven cavity is made of metal and there is a fine metal mesh on the door.

During cooking the microwaves bounce off the sides of the oven cavity at random.

Microwaves will pass through certain materials, such as glass and plastic, to heat the food. (See “Suitable Cookware” on page 12).

Water, sugar and fat in food absorb microwaves which cause them to vibrate. This creates heat by friction, in the same way your hands get warm when you rub them together.

The outer areas of the food are heated by the microwave energy, then the heat moves to the centre by conduction, as it does in conventional cooking. It is important to turn, rearrange or stir food to ensure even heating.

Once cooking is complete, the oven automatically stops producing microwaves.

Standing time is necessary after cooking, as it enables the heat to disperse equally throughout the food.
