MPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

This appliance is intended to be used by expert or trained user in shops, in light industry and on farms, or for commercial use by lay persons. This oven is designed to be used on a countertop only. It is not designed to be built into a kitchen unit. Do not place the oven in a cabinet. The electrical outlet must be readily accessible so that the unit can be unplugged easily in an emergency.

If smoke or burn is observed: Keep the oven door closed and switch off the power by disconnecting the

plug from the socket in order to stifle any flames. Failure to follow this procedure may result in fire and oven damage. Ensure there is a minimum of free space above the oven of 25 cm. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

WARNING: Only allow children to use the oven without supervision when adequate instructions have been given so that the child is able to use the oven in a safe way and understands the hazards of improper use.

WARNING: If the door or door seals are damaged, the oven must not be operated until it has been repaired by a competent person.

WARNING: Never adjust, repair or modify the oven yourself. It is hazardous for anyone other than a competent person to carry out any service or repair operation which involves the removal of a cover which gives protection against exposure to microwave energy. If the power supply cord of this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by an authorised SHARP service agent in order to avoid a hazard.

WARNING: Liquids and other foods must not be heated in sealed containers since they are liable to explode. WARNING: Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care must be taken when handling the container. Do not cook eggs in their shells, and whole hard boiled eggs should not be heated in microwave ovens since they may explode even after microwave cooking has ended. To cook or reheat eggs which have not been scrambled or mixed, pierce the yolks and the whites, or the eggs may explode. Shell and slice hard boiled eggs before reheating them in the microwave oven. Utensils should be checked to ensure that they are suitable for use in the oven. See page 14. Use only microwave safe containers and utensils on microwave modes. WARNING: The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars must be stirred or shaken and the temperature checked before consumption, in order to avoid burns.

When heating food in plastic or paper containers, keep an eye on the oven due to the possibility of ignition. Clean the oven at regular intervals and remove any food deposits. Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surface that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation. See instructions for cleaning door seals, cavities and adjacent parts on page 28. The oven should not be cleaned with a water jet.

Use oven gloves when removing food from the oven to prevent burns.

The microwave oven should not be left unattended during operation. Power levels that are too high, or cooking times that are too long, may overheat foods resulting in a fire.

A separate circuit serving only this appliance should be provided.

Oven Use:

• The oven is for food preparation only.

Never operate when empty.

• Do not leave or store anything inside the oven when

not in use.

• Never attempt to use the oven with the door open.

It is important not to tamper with the door safety latches. This may result in exposure to microwave energy.

• Never operate the oven with any object caught in

the door sealing surfaces, this again may cause microwave leakage.

• Do not insert fingers or objects in the holes of the

door latches or air vent openings as this may damage the oven and cause an electric shock.

• If water or food drops inside the air vent openings

switch off the oven immediately, unplug it and call a Service Technician appointed by SHARP.

• Never attempt to move the oven while it is operating.

• Do not use the oven near a steamer or a fryer.

• Always wipe up spills on the ceramic floor and splashes

on the walls after cooking. If you leave grease on the ceramic floor and walls it may overheat, smoke or even catch fire when next using your oven.

After each use wipe the splash cover on the ceiling of the

•

oven with a soft damp cloth to remove any splashes. If you leave grease on the splash cover it may overheat, smoke or even catch fire when next using your oven.

WARNING:

Pacemaker: If you have a heart pacemaker, consult your doctor or the pacemaker manufacturer prior to oven use.

Liquids: Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care must be taken when handling the container. Stir the liquid prior to and during heating/ reheating, let liquid stand for at least 20 seconds in the oven after cooking.

NSTALLATION

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. Caution Sheet:

Always keep the caution sheet (Special Instructions and Warnings) close to the oven for your reference.

Important: If any damage is apparent, do not operate the oven in any way. Contact your dealer or an authorised Service Technician appointed by SHARP.

Remove all packing materials. Remove the protective

film (blue film) from the outer case cabinet (if covered). Do not remove the plastic film from the inside of the oven window as this protects it from dirt.

Place oven on a secure, level surface, strong enough to take the oven weight, plus the heaviest item likely to be cooked in the oven. Do not place this oven in a position which is not easily accessible. To position the oven too high can be dangerous because food can not be removed safely.

3 Ensure there is a minimum free space above the

oven of 25 cm.

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, as obstructions may ignite due to the emission of hot air.

Make sure the power supply cord is undamaged and

that it does not run under the oven or over any hot or sharp surfaces.

6 The socket must be readily accessible so that it can

be easily unplugged in an emergency.

7 Do not use the oven outdoors. 8

BUILDING-IN-KIT

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

IMPORTANT! ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

• Do not allow water to come into contact with the

power supply cord or plug.

• Insert the plug properly into the socket as the plug

may otherwise overheat and catch fire.

• Do not connect other appliances to the same socket

using an adaptor plug as it may cause the wiring to overheat and catch fire.

• If the plug or socket is loose or the power supply

cord is damaged, do not operate the oven, it must be replaced by the special power cord. Contact your dealer or a Service Technician appointed by SHARP. A defective plug, power supply cord or socket may overheat and catch fire during operation or cause an electrical shock.

•

When removing the plug from the socket always grip the plug, never the mains lead as this may damage the power supply cord and the connections inside the plug.

• The product is fitted with a non-rewireable (moulded)

plug. Should it not be suitable for the socket outlet in your kitchen, remove the plug and fit an appropriate type, observing the wiring code given in "To replace

the mains plug" on page 30. The fuse from a cut-off plug should be removed and the plug disposed of in safe manner. Under no circumstances should the cut-off plug be inserted into a socket outlet as serious electrical shock may occur. The plug must not be used without the fuse cover fitted. When replacing the plug please ensure that you use a BSI or ASTA approved plug to BS1363, this should be fitted with a brown coloured 13 amp fuse approved by BSI or ASTA to BS1362. If you have any doubt about electrical connection seek the help of a qualified electrician.

Always attend the oven closely. Look at the oven from time to time when cooking or reheating food in disposable containers of plastic, paper or other combustible material. Only use for warming food. Pay special attention as over-heating may cause a fire in your oven.

YES

Always attend the oven closely. Only use to absorb fat and moisture when warming food. Pay special attention as overheating may cause a fire in your oven.

YES

Always place on an up-turned plate on the turntable to prevent heat stress. Follow manufacturer's instructions. Be careful as these become very hot. Popcorn: Only use microwave popcorn within recommended packaging (follow popcorn manufacturer's instructions). Never use oil unless the manufacturer recommends and never cook for longer than instructed.

Use small pieces of aluminium foil to shield food from overheating. Keep foil at least 2cm from the oven walls. Foil containers are not recommended unless specified by the manufacturer, e.g. MicroFoil®, follow instructions carefully.

Page 16

Face & Hands: Always use oven gloves to remove food or cookware from the oven. Stand back when opening

the oven door to allow heat or steam to disperse. When removing covers (such as cling-film), opening roasting bags or popcorn packaging, direct steam away from face and hands.

Check the temperature of food and drink and stir (before serving). Take special care when serving food to babies, children or the elderly. the contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars should be stirred or shaken and the temperature checked before consumption to avoid burns.

FOOD HANDLING & PREPARATION

Stir, turn & stand

For even cooking stir, turn or rearrange food during cooking. Where recommended, leave food to stand after cooking or defrosting.

Initial temperature

Piercing

Arrangement

Covering

Size & shape

Density & quantity

The initial temperature of food affects the amount of cooking time needed, for example, chilled food requires more cooking than food at room temperature. The temperature of the container is not a true indication of the temperature of the food or drink. Cut into foods with fillings, for example, jam doughnuts, to release heat or steam.

Food with skin (e.g. potatoes, apples, fish, sausages, chicken), or with membrane (e.g. egg whites/yolks), must be pierced in several places before cooking or reheating. If not, steam will build up and may cause food to explode.

Place thickest parts of food on the outside of the dish, e.g. place the meaty ends of chicken drumsticks on the outside of the dish.

Fish, vegetables and certain other foods benefit from being covered during microwave cookery, follow recommendations where given and use vented microwave cling film or a suitable lid.

Food size and shape affect the amount of cooking time needed. When cooking more than one portion of the same food ensure they are of a similar size and shape.

Food density and quantity affect the amount of cooking time needed, for example, potatoes require more cooking than peas; four potatoes will take longer to cook than two.

Composition & quality

Hygiene

Food high in fat or sugar (Christmas pudding, mince pies) requires less heating time and should be watched, over-heating can lead to fire. Use good quality ingredients for microwaving. Economical cuts of meat can be used for casseroles.

Food hygiene standards (storage, handling and preparation) apply to microwaving. Always store convenience foods as recommended by the food manufacturer and keep no longer than the "Use By" date.

ADVICE FOR DEFROSTING

Meat joints

Poultry

Steak, Chops & Chicken Portions

Cubed & Minced Meat

Place in a flan dish, turn over at least 4-5 times during defrosting, shield any warm areas with small, flat pieces of foil. After defrosting, wrap in foil and allow meat to stand for 1-2 hours, defrosted.

Place in a flan dish, turn over at least 3-4 times during defrosting, shield any warm areas with small, pieces of foil. After defrosting, wrap in foil and allow poultry to stand for 1-2 hours, defrosted.

NOTE: Do not defrost poultry with giblets.

Place in a flan dish, separate during defrosting and turn over at least 2-3 times. Shield if necessary.

Place in a bowl, remove defrosted parts and turn over at least 3-4 times during defrosting.

until thoroughly

Whole fish & Fillets

Prepacked Frozen Foods

Place in a flan dish, separate and turn over at least twice during defrosting. Shield if necessary.

Remove packaging, including any foil and place in a suitable dish.

NOTES:

• To defrost food, use either 30% or 10% microwave power.

• Shield warm areas with small pieces of foil if necessary.

• It is important to turn food over, separate (where appropriate) and rearrange to ensure even defrosting.

• Standing time is necessary after defrosting to ensure thorough defrosting.

Page 18

ADVICE FOR REHEATING

WARNINGS:

Oil & Fat: Never heat oil or fat for deep frying as this may lead to overheating and fire. Stand back when opening the oven door to allow heat or steam to disperse. When removing covers (such as cling-film), opening roasting bags or popcorn packaging, direct steam away from face and hands.

Never heat liquids in narrow-necked containers, as this could result in the contents erupting from the container and may cause burns.

Remove food from foil or metal containers before reheating.

•

Reheating times will be affected by the shape, depth, quantity and temperature of food together with the size, shape and

•

material of the container. To avoid overheating and fire, spacial care must be taken when reheating foods with a high sugar or fat content, for example,

•

mince pies, Christmas pudding. Canned potatoes should not be heated in the microwave oven, follow the manufacturers' instructions on the can.

•

Plated meals

Casseroles

Poultry portions

Sliced meat

Pies

Remove any poultry or meat portions, reheat these separately, see below. Place smaller items of food to the

centre of the plate, larger and thicker foods to the edge. Cover with vented microwave cling film and reheat on 50%, stir/rearrange halfway through reheating. Ensure thoroughly reheated before serving.

Cover with vented microwave cling film or a suitable lid, reheat on 50%. Stir frequently to ensure even reheating.

Place thickest parts of the portions on the outside of the dish, cover with microwave cling film and reheat on 70%. Turn over halfway through reheating.

NOTE: Ensure poultry is thoroughly reheated, before serving.

Cover with vented microwave cling film and reheat on 50%. Rearrange at least once to ensure even reheating.

NOTE: Ensure meat is thoroughly reheated before serving.

Place pies on plate or in a flan dish. Reheat meat pies on 70% and fruit pies on 50%.

Vegetables

Cover with vented microwave cling film or suitable lid and reheat on 50%. Stir at least once during reheating.

EXPRESS DEFROST

This is specially designed for smaller cuts of food. The following items are to be used on the express defrost programme.

1.Beef Steak

2.Lamb Chops

3.Pork Chops

4.Chicken Legs

5.Fish Fillets

The oven is pre-programmed with a time and power level cycle so that the food listed above is defrosted better and faster.

BASIC IDEAS FOR EXPRESS DEFROST

i/ Always allow food to stand for approx. 30-45 minutes after defrosting to equalise the temperature and to produce

better defrosting results.

ii/

Check food after standing. If the item is not thoroughly defrosted, continue to defrost on 20% power for additional time.

iii/ Choose foods that are the same thickness throughout. This will produce better defrosting results. Foods which

vary in thickness may require shielding with small flat pieces of tin foil to prevent over-defrosting. iv/ For foods not listed in the chart refer to the manual defrosting chart. v/ When freezing chicken legs, steak, chops and fish, freeze separately in single flat layers and if necessary interleave

with freezer plastic to seperate layers. This will ensure even defrosting.

FOOD

Steak Pork, lamb chops Chicken Legs

Fish Fillets

1. Position the food with thinner parts in centre in a single layer, if pieces are stuck together separate as soon as possible.

2. Turn over, rearrange after the audible sound. After defrosting stand for 15-45 minutes.

1. Position the food in a single layer.

2. Shield any thinner parts with foil if necessary.

LEANING & MAINTENANCE

WARNING

• Do not allow grease or dirt to build up on the door

seals and adjacent parts as this may prevent the door from closing correctly and may cause a leakage of microwaves. To clean use a mild detergent solution on a soft damp cloth.

•

DO NOT OPERATE the oven without the splash cover in place.

• DO NOT REMOVE the splash cover UNLESS THE

POWER CORD IS REMOVED FROM THE OUTLET because the rotary antenna, which is located on the ceiling, operates for 1 minute after the door is opened and injury could occur.

• Keep the ceramic floor clean at all times. If you leave

grease or fat in the cavily, it may overheat, smoke or even catch fire when next using the oven.

• Never use spray cleaners, oven pads or abrasive scour-

ers as these damage the surface of the oven.

• Do not remove the ceramic floor from the oven.

Do not use commercial oven cleaners, abrasive or harsh

•

cleaners or scouring pads on any part of your microwave oven.

•

Do not sprinkle water onto the oven directly. It may cause electric shock, leakage of electricity or damage of the oven.

• Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could

lead to deterioration of the surface that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.

OVEN INTERIOR

Clean the microwave oven cavity, at the end of each day with a damp soft cloth for hygienic reasons. For heavier soil, use mild soap applied with a soft damp cloth wipe clean ensuring all soap is removed. Make sure that the soap or water does not penetrate through the small vents in the walls which may cause damage to the oven. Take care not to let soapy water drip through the small holes

in the oven walls. Excess water spillage through these holes will cause damage to the oven interior. It is important that the door seals and sealing surfaces are kept clean at all times, wipe regularly with a damp cloth. The ceramic floor should be kept clean at all times. Minor spills may be wiped with a damp cloth.

SPLASH COVER

AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK, REMOVE THE SPLASH COVER AND WASH BOTH SIDES OF IT IN A MILD DETERGENT SOLUTION. A BUILD UP OF GREASE MAY OVERHEAT AND BEGIN TO SMOKE AND MAY BURN THE SPLASH COVER. THE SPLASH COVER IS LOCATED IN THE TOP OF THE OVEN AND MAY EASILY BE REMOVED. REMEMBER TO UNPLUG THE POWER CORD.

Removal:

1. Remove two thumb screws (A) as shown in Fig.1.

2. Remove the splash cover from the oven.

Reinstall:

1. Insert two projections of the cover (B) into the holes of the oven cavity backplate as shown in Fig. 2.

2. Secure the cover to the oven ceiling with two thumb screws (A) as shown in Fig. 1.

OVEN LIGHT REPLACEMENT

Unplug the oven before removing the removable cover to access oven light bulb, and replace the light bulb (25W/240V). Make sure that the cover is secured to the oven cabinet after replacing the light bulb. See page 1.

OUTER CABINET

Wipe the outside cabinet with a mild detergent solution on a soft cloth. The control panel must be wiped clean whilst the door is open, therefore inactivating the oven. Keep the air intake filter clean. Clean the air intake filter once every two weeks. Remove the air intake filter by pulling the two (2) clips on the sides of the filter. Wash the air intake filter in mild soapy water, rinse and dry with a soft cloth. After cleaning re-install the air intake filter. Do not operate the oven without the air intake filter in place.

ROUBLESHOOTING

If you think the oven is not working properly there are some simple checks which you can carry out yourself before you call for an engineer. This will help prevent unnecessary service calls if the fault is something simple.

Simply answer "YES" or "NO" to the following questions:

1 Do the oven lamp and fan motor come on for 1

minute when you open the door? YES/NO

Put half a cup of water on the ceramic floor in the oven and close the door. Cook for 1 minute at 100%.

2 Does the oven lamp come on? YES/NO 3 Does the fan motor work? (Check by placing your

hand above the air vent openings) YES/NO

4 After 1 minute does the "Beep" signal sound?

YES/NO

5 And did the heating indicator "ON" go out?

YES/NO

6 Is the water in the cup hot? YES/NO

PROBLEM

Draught circulates around the door.

Condensation forms in the oven, and may drip from the door.

POSSIBLE CAUSE

When oven is working, air circulates within the cavity. The door does not form an airtight seal so air may escape from the door.

The oven cavity will normally be colder than the food being cooked, and so steam produced when cooking will condense on the colder surface. The amount of steam produced depends on the water content of the food being cooked. Some foods, such as potatoes have a high moisture content. Condensation trapped in the door glass should clear after a few hours.

If you answer "NO" to any question first check that the oven is plugged in properly and the fuse has not blown, if there is no fault with either, check against the troubleshooting chart below.

WARNINGS:

• Never adjust, repair or modify the oven yourself, or allow anyone other than a Service Technician, appointed by SHARP to carry out the service.

• The door seal stops microwave leakage during oven

operation, but does not form an airtight seal. It is normal to see drops of water, light or feel warm air around the oven door. Food with a high moisture content will release steam and cause condensation inside the door which may drip from the oven.

• Repairs & Modifications: Do not attempt to operate the

oven if it is not working properly.

• Outer Cabinet & Lamp Access: Never remove the outer

cabinet. This would be very dangerous due to high voltage parts inside which must never be touched, as this could be fatal, As your oven has a removable cover over oven light bulb, it is possible for you to replace the light bulb yourself with care. The light bulb can be purchased from Sharp Electronics (U.K.) Ltd. See page

30. Unplug the oven before replacing the light bulb.

Flashing or arcing from within the cavity when cooking.

Arcing potatoes.

After setting the time, the oven does not start.

Oven cooks too slowly.

Oven makes a noise.

Outer cabinet is hot.

Arcing will occur when a metallic object comes into dose proximity to the oven cavity during cooking. This may possibly roughen the surface of the cavity, but would not otherwise damage the oven.

Ensure all "eyes" are removed and place in a heat resistant flan dish or similar.

Check the door is closed properly.

Ensure correct power level has been selected.

The microwave energy pulses ON/OFF during cooking/defrosting.

The cabinet may become warm to the touch - keep children away

O REPLACE THE MAINS PLUG

The wires in the mains cable are colour coded as shown opposite:

As the colours of the cores in the mains lead of your oven may not correspond with the coloured marking identifying the terminals in your plug, connect the wires as shown: Make sure the terminal screws are tight and the cable is held securely by the cable grip where it enters the plug. Like most appliances in your home, your oven must be connected to a single phase 230-240 Volt, 50Hz alternating current supply. If you do not make the proper electrical connections you might damage the oven or injure yourself. Neither SHARP nor the supplier will be liable if this happens.

ALLING FOR SERVICE

• If you are unable to resolve a problem using the checks covered on the last few pages, do not attempt to serv-

ice this microwave oven yourself.

• Contact the dealer or supplier from whom the oven was

purchased in order to obtain service. Where this is not possible, please contact the SHARP Customer Information Centre, telephone: 08705 274277 (office hours).
