Unpacking and Examining Your Oven
Remove:
1.all packing materials from inside the oven
cavity; however, DO NOT REMOVE THE
WAVEGUIDE COVER, which is located on
the right cavity
wall. Read enclo-
sures and SAVE
the Operation
Manual.
2. the feature
sticker, if there is
one, from the out-
side of the door.
Check the oven for any damage, such as mis-
aligned or bent door, damaged door seals and
sealing surfaces, broken or loose door hinges
and latches and dents inside the cavity or on
the door. If there is any damage, do not oper-
ate the oven and contact your dealer or
SHARP AUTHORIZED SERVICER.
Choosing a Location for Your Oven
You will use the oven frequently so plan its
location for ease of use. It's wise, if possible,
to have counter space on at least one side of
the oven. Allow at least 2 inches (50mm) on
the sides, top and at the rear of the oven for
air circulation. Do not place or install the oven
in any area where heat and steam are gener-
ated; for example, next to or above a conven-
tional gas or electric range or above a con-
ventional wall oven. Heat and steam may dam-
age the electronics or the mechanical parts of
the oven.
UNPACKING AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. This oven is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire
with a grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. In
the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an
escape wire for the electric current.
WARNING - Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
Electrical Requirements
The electrical requirements are a 120 volt 60 Hz, AC only, 15
amp. or more protected electrical supply. It is recommended
that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided.
The oven is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. It must
be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and
grounded. Should you only have a 2-prong outlet, have a quali-
fied electrician install a correct wall receptacle.
A 3-prong adapter may be purchased and used temporarily if
local codes allow. Follow package directions.
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce risk of becom-
ing entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
Extension Cord
If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension
cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will
accept the plug on the microwave oven. The marked rating of the exten-
sion cord should be AC 115-120 volt, 15 amp. or more.
Be careful not to drape the cord over the countertop or table where it
can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.
Notes:
1. If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical
instructions, consult a qualified electrician or service person.
2. Neither Sharp nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage to the oven or personal
injury resulting from failure to observe the correct electrical connection procedures.
Radio or TV Interference
Should there be any interference caused by the microwave oven to your radio or TV, check
that the microwave oven is on a different electrical circuit, relocate the radio or TV as far
away from the oven as feasible or check position and signal of receiving antenna.

ABOUT YOUR OVEN
This Operation Manual is valuable: read it care-
fully and always save it for reference.
A good microwave cookbook is a valuable asset.
Check it for microwave cooking principles, tech-
niques, hints and recipes. See pages 19 and 20
for ordering the Sharp Carousel Microwave Cook-
book.
NEVER
use the oven without the turntable and sup-
port nor turn the turntable over so that a large dish
could be placed in the oven. The turntable will turn
both clockwise and counterclockwise.
ALWAYS
have food in the oven when it is on to
absorb the microwave energy.
When using the oven at power levels below 100%,
Eggs,
sausages,
nuts, seeds
fruits &
vegetables
ABOUT FOOD
• Puncture egg yolks before cooking to
prevent “explosion”.
• Pierce skins of potatoes, apples, squash,
hot dogs and sausages so that steam
escapes.
• Cook eggs in shells.
• Reheat whole eggs.
• Dry nuts or seeds in shells.
DO
DON’T
FOOD
you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off. It
is normal for the exterior of the oven to be warm to
the touch when cooking or reheating.
Condensation is a normal part of microwave cook-
ing. Room humidity and the moisture in food will
influence the amount of moisture that condenses
in the oven. Generally, covered foods will not cause
as much condensation as uncovered ones. Vents
on the oven back must not be blocked.
The oven is for food preparation only. It should not
be used to dry clothes or newspapers.
Your oven is rated 800 watts by using the IEC Test
Procedure.
• Use specially bagged popcorn for the mi-
crowave oven.
• Listen while popping corn for the pop-
ping to slow to 1 or 2 seconds or use
special POPCORN pad.
• Place carefully so bag does not touch
oven walls. The corners of the bag may
be folded down.
• Transfer baby food to small dish and heat
carefully, stirring often. Check tempera-
ture before serving.
• Put nipples on bottles after heating and
shake thoroughly. “Wrist” test before
feeding.
• Cut baked goods with filling after heat-
ing to release steam and avoid burns.
• Stir liquids briskly before heating and
allow to stand at least for 20 seconds
after heating before stirring or drinking
to avoid eruption.
• Use deep bowl, when cooking liquids or
cereals, to prevent boilovers.
Popcorn
Baby food
General
• Pop popcorn in regular brown bags or
glass bowls.
• Exceed maximum time on popcorn pack-
age.
• Heat baby food in original jars.
• Heat disposable bottles.
• Heat bottles with nipples on.
• Heat or cook in closed glass jars or air
tight containers.
• Can in the microwave as harmful bacte-
ria may not be destroyed.
• Deep fat fry.
• Dry wood, gourds, herbs or wet papers.

ABOUT UTENSILS AND COVERINGS
The following coverings are ideal:
• Paper towels are good for covering foods for
reheating and absorbing fat while cooking ba-
con.
• Wax paper can be used for cooking and re-
heating.
• Plastic wrap that is specially marked for mi-
crowave use can be used for cooking and re-
heating. DO NOT allow plastic wrap to touch
food. Vent so steam can escape.
• Lids that are microwave-safe are a good choice
because heat is kept near the food to hasten
cooking.
• Oven cooking bags are good for large meats
or foods that need tenderizing. DO NOT use
metal twist ties. Remember to slit bag so steam
can escape.
How to use aluminum foil in your microwave
oven:
• Small flat pieces of aluminum foil placed
smoothly on the food can be used to shield
areas that are either defrosting or cooking too
quickly.
• Foil should not come closer than one inch to
any surface of the oven.
Should you have questions about utensils or cov-
erings, check a good microwave cookbook or fol-
low recipe suggestions.
ACCESSORIES There are many microwave acces-
sories available for purchase. Evaluate carefully
before you purchase so that they meet your needs.
A microwave-safe thermometer will assist you in
determining correct doneness and assure you that
foods have been cooked to safe temperatures.
Sharp is not responsible for any damage to the
oven when accessories are used.
Children should be taught all safety precautions:
use potholders, remove coverings carefully, pay
special attention to packages that crisp food be-
cause they may be extra hot.
Don’t assume that because a child has mastered
one cooking skill he/she can cook everything.
Children need to learn that the microwave oven is
not a toy. See page 16 for Child Lock feature.
It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many
pieces already in your kitchen can be used suc-
cessfully in your new microwave oven. Make sure
the utensil does not touch the interior walls during
cooking.
Use these utensils for safe microwave cooking
and reheating:
• glass ceramic (Pyroceram
®
), such as
Corningware
®
.
• heat-resistant glass (Pyrex
®
)
• microwave-safe plastics
• paper plates
• microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and porce-
lain
• browning dish (Do not exceed recommended
preheating time. Follow manufacturer's direc-
tions.)
These items can be used for short time reheating
of foods that have little fat or sugar in them:
• wood, straw, wicker
DO NOT USE
• metal pans and bakeware
• dishes with metallic trim
• non-heat-resistant glass
• non-microwave-safe plastics (margarine tubs)
• recycled paper products
• brown paper bags
• food storage bags
• metal twist-ties
Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for
microwaving, place the empty dish in the oven and
microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds. A dish which
becomes very hot should not be used.
ABOUT CHILDREN AND THE MICROWAVE
Children below the age of 7 should use the micro-
wave oven with a supervising person very near to
them. Between the ages of 7 and 12, the super-
vising person should be in the same room.
The child must be able to reach the oven comfort-
ably; if not, he/she should stand on a sturdy stool.
At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or
swing on the oven door.
