Hinges sealingsurfacesoover 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 operate 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 loca-
tion 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 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 generated; for example, next to or
above a conventional gas or electric range or

above a conventional wall oven. Heat and steam

may damage the electronics or the mechanical
parts of the oven.

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 electri-
cal short circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric

current.
WARNING - Improper use ofthe grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

Electrical Requirements

The ekctfical requirements are a 120 volt 60 Hz, AC only, 15 amp. or more Permanent and Correct _nstaiiation
protected electrical supply. It is recommended that a separate circuit serv-

ing only this appliance be provided. _.._<_...____3Pr°°gP:og
The oven is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. It must be plugged _---_-'__ (,A_,!H

into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded. Should you
only have a 2-prong outlet, have a qualified electrician installa correct wall

receptacle. Grounding Pin

A 3-prong adapter may be purchased and used temporarily if local codes 3-P_ongRecept....

allow. Follow package directions. G,oond/

Recept ac',e Box

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce risk of becoming 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 extension cord
should beAC 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 in-

structions, 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 carefully and
always save it for reference.

A good microwave cookbook is a valuable asset.

Check it for microwave cooking principles, techniques,
hints and recipes. See pages 19 and 20 for ordering

the Ultimate Accessory, the SHARP CAROUSEL MI-
CROWAVE COOKBOOK.

NEVER use the oven without the turntable and support
nor turn the turntable over so that a large dish could be

placed in the oven. The turntable will turn both clock-
wise 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%, you

ABOUTFOOD

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 cooking.

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 con-

densation 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 1100 watts (R-308J, R-309J) or

1200 watts (R-310J) by using the IEC Test
Procedure. In using recipes or package directions,

check food a minute or two before the minimum time
and add time accordingly.

INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW

ABOUT UTENSILS AND COVERINGS

It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many
pieces already in your kitchen can be used success-
fully in your new microwave oven. Make sure the uten-

sil does not touch the interior walls during cooking.

Usetheseutensils forsafe microwavecooking
and reheating:

" glass ceramic (Pyroceram®), such as

Corningware ®.

,, heat-resistant glass (Pyrex ®)
,, microwave-safe plastics
,, paper plates

,, microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and

porcelain

,, browning dish (Do not exceed recommended

preheating time. Follow manufacturer's
directions.)

These items can he used for short time reheat-
ing of foods thathave littlefat or sugarinthem:

, wood, straw, wicker

The following coverings are ideal:

* Paper towels are good for covering foods for re-

heating and absorbing fat while cooking bacon.

, Wax paper can be used for cooking and

reheating.

, Plastic wrap that is specially marked for micro-

wave use can be used for cooking and reheat-

ing. 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.

to use aluminum foil in your microwave

How

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 coverings,
check a good microwave cookbook or follow recipe

suggestions.

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.

ACCESSORIESThere are many microwave accesso-

ries available for purchase. Evaluate carefully before
you purchase so that they meet your needs. A micro-
wavesafe 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 acces-
sories are used.

ABOUT CHILDREH AHIP THE MICROWAVE

Children below the age of 7 should use the microwave
oven with a supervising person very near to them.
Between the ages of 7 and 12, the supervising person

should be in the same room.
The child must be able to reach the oven comfortably;

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.

Children should be taught all safety precautions: use
potholders, remove coverings carefully, pay special

attention to packages that crisp food because 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.

INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW

ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING

,, Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards

outside of dish.

,, Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount

of time indicated and add more as needed. Food
severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.

• Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or cook-
book for suggestions: paper towels, wax paper,
microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Covers prevent

spattering and help foods to cook evenly.

• Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil any

thin areas of meat or poultry to prevent overcooking

before dense, thick areas are cooked thoroughly.

,, Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice

during cooking, if possible.

,, Turn foods over once during microwaving to

speed cooking of such foods as chicken and ham-

burgers. Large items like roasts must be turned over

at least once.

Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway

through cooking both from top to bottom and from
the center of the dish to the outside.

Add standing time. Remove food from oven and
stir, if possible. Cover for standing time which allows

the food to finish cooking without overcooking.

Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that

cooking temperatures have been reached.

Doneness signs include:

- Food steams throughout, not just at edge.

- Center bottom of dish is very hot to the touch.

- Poultry thigh joints move easily.

- Meat and poultry show no pinkness.

- Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

ABOUT SAFETY

,, Check foods to see that they are cooked to the

United States Department of Agriculture's
recommended temperatures.

160°F ... for fresh pork, ground meat.

boneless white poultry, fish,
seafood, egg dishes ana frozen

prepared food.

165°F ... for leftover, ready-to-reheat

refrigerated, and dell and carry-

out "fresh" food.

... white meat of poultry.

170°F
180°F

... dark meat of poultry.

To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer in a
thick or dense area away from fat or bone. NEVER

leave the thermometer in the food during cooking,
unless it is approved for microwave oven use.

® ALWAYS use potholders to prevent burns when

handling utensils that are in contact with hot food.
Enough heat from the food can transfer through

utensils to cause skin burns.

® Avoid steam burns by directing steam away from

the face and hands. Slowly lift the farthest edge of

a dish's covering and carefully open popcorn and
oven cooking bags away from the face.

® Stay near the oven while it's in use and check

cooking progress frequently so that there is no
chance of overcooking food.

® NEVER use the cavity for storing cookbooks or

other items.

® Select, store and handle food carefully to preserve

its high quality and minimize the spread of

foodborne bacteria.

® Keep waveguide cover clean. Food residue can

cause arcing and/or fires.

® Use care when removing items from the oven so

that the utensil, your clothes or accessories do not
touch the safety door latches.

|SPECIAL FEATURES

MANUAL DEFROST

POPCORN

If the food that you wish to defrost is not listed on the
DEFROST CHART or is above or below the limits in

the AMOUNT column on the DEFROST CHART, you
need to defrost manually.

You can defrost any frozen food, either raw or previ-
ously cooked, by using 30% power level. See page 9.

Estimate defrosting time and press POWER LEVEL pad
8 times when you select the power level.

For either raw or previously cooked frozen food the rule
of thumb is approximately 4 minutes per pound. For

example, defrost 4 minutes for 2-3 cups of casserole or
1 pound of frozen spaghetti sauce.

Always stop the oven periodically to remove or sepa-

rate the portions that are defrosted. If food is not de-
frosted at the end of the estimated defrosting time, pro-

gram the oven in 1 minute increments at 30% until to-
tally defrosted.

When using plastic containers from the freezer, defrost
only long enough to remove from the plastic in order to

place in a microwave-safe dish.
