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 amps. 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 qualified 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 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 be AC 115-120 volt, 15 amps. 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 serviceperson.
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.

INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW
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 the order form on
page 20 for ordering the Ultimate Accessory, the
SHARP CAROUSEL MICROWAVE 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 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%,
you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off.
About Food
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
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.
The R-308A-, R-309B-, R-310A- and R-312A- are
rated 1000 watts. The R-305A- and R305B- are
rated 900 watts. In using recipes or package
directions, check food a minute or two before the
minimum time and add time accordingly.
Eggs, sausages,
fruits &
vegetables
Popcorn
Baby food
General
DO
* Puncture egg yolks before cooking
to prevent “explosion”.
* Pierce skins of potatoes, apples,
squash, hot dogs and sausages so
that steam escapes.
* Use specially bagged popcorn for the
microwave oven.
* Listen while popping corn for the
popping to slow to 1 or 2 seconds or
use special POPCORN pad.
* Transfer baby food to small dish and
heat carefully, stirring often. Check
temperature before serving.
* Put nipples on bottles after heating
and shake thoroughly. “Wrist” test
before feeding.
* Cut baked goods with filling after
heating to release steam and avoid
burns.
* Stir liquids briskly before and after
heating to avoid “eruption”.
* Use deep bowl, when cooking liquids or
cereals, to prevent boilovers.
DON’T
* Cook eggs in shells.
* Reheat whole eggs.
* Pop popcorn in regular brown bags or
glass bowls.
* Exceed maximum time on popcorn
package.
* Heat disposable bottles.
* Heat bottles with nipples on.
* Heat baby food in original jars.
* Heat or cook in closed glass jars or air
tight containers.
* Can in the microwave as harmful
bacteria may not be destroyed.
* Deep fat fry.
* Dry wood, gourds, herbs or wet papers.

About Utensils and Coverings
It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many
pieces already in your kitchen can be used
successfully in your new microwave oven.
Use these utensils for safe microwave cooking and
reheating:
* glass ceramic (Pyroceram®), such as
Corningware
* heat-resistant glass (Pyrex®)
* microwave-safe plastics (Some microwave-safe
plastics are not suitable for cooking foods with
high fat and sugar content.)
* paper plates
* microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and
porcelain
* browning dish (Do not exceed recommended
preheating time. Follow manufacturer's
directions.)
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
®
.
The following coverings are ideal:
* Paper towels are good for covering foods for
reheating and absorbing fat while cooking
bacon.
* Wax paper can be used for cooking and
reheating.
* Plastic wrap that is specially marked for
microwave use can be used for cooking and
reheating. 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 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.
Should you have questions about utensils or coverings, check a good microwave cookbook or follow recipe
suggestions.
ACCESSORIES There are many microwave accessories 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.
About Children and 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.
5
About Microwave Cooking
* Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas
toward outside of dish.
* Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest
amount of time indicated and add more as
needed. Foods severely overcooked can smoke
or ignite.
* Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or
cookbook 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 meats 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
hamburgers. Large items like roasts must be
turned over at least once.
* Rearrange foods like 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:
TEMP
160°F
165°F
170°F
180°F
To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer in
a thick or dense area away from fat or bone. NEVER
leave the thermometer in 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.
... for fresh pork, ground meat,
boneless white poultry, fish,
seafood, egg dishes and
frozen prepared food.
... for leftover, ready-to-reheat
refrigerated, and deli and
carry-out “fresh” food.
... white meat of poultry.
... dark meat of poultry.
FOOD
* 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 wave guide 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.

If the food that you wish to defrost is not listed on the
COMPU DEFROST CHART or is above or below the
limits in the “Amount” column on the COMPU DEFROST
CHART, you need to defrost manually.
You can defrost any frozen food, either raw or previously
cooked, by using Power Level 3. Follow the exact 3step procedure found under Time Cooking on page 9.
Estimate defrosting time and press 3 for 30% when you
select the power level.
For either raw or previously cooked frozen food the rule
of thumb is approximately 5 minutes per pound. For
example, defrost 5 minutes for 1 pound of frozen
spaghetti sauce.
Always stop the oven periodically to remove or separate
the portions that are defrosted. If food is not defrosted
at the end of the estimated defrosting time, program the
oven in 1 minute increments on Power Level 3 until
totally 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.
Instant Start
Instant Action and Instant Start allow you to cook or
reheat many of your favorite foods by touching just
one pad.
* Suppose you want to cook 3 medium baked potatoes.
To use any Instant Action or Instant Start pad, touch
within 1 minute after cooking, opening and closing the
door or touching the STOP/ CLEAR pad.
To increase quantity, touch chosen pad until number
in display is same as desired quantity to cook. Ex:
touch BAKED POTATO three times for three baked
potatoes.
TIPS: Foods can be covered with wax paper or
vented plastic wrap. Temperatures of foods
covered with plastic wrap tend to be slightly
higher than those covered with wax paper.
(R-305A-, R-305B-, R-308A-, R-309B-)

Use this pad to reheat refrigerated canned or homemade pasta
with sauce or other cooked casserole. For room temperature pasta
or casserole, use Less option. For pasta without sauce double the
quantity per setting. For example, measure 2 cups of cooked
noodles and program for 1 cup. Cover with lid or plastic wrap. After
cooking, let stand, covered, 2 to 3 minutes.
Pierce with fork in several places; place on paper towel on
turntable. At end of cooking time, remove from oven, wrap in foil
and let stand 10 minutes.
For beans, carrots, corn and peas, add 1 tablespoon of water per
cup. For broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage and cauliflower,
cook immediately after washing with no additional water. If you like
tender crisp vegetables, double or triple measured quantity per
setting. For example, use 2 cups or 3 cups of zucchini but touch
FRESH VEGETABLE only once. After cooking, remove from oven,
stir, cover and let stand 3 to 5 minutes before serving.
Use this pad to warm rolls, muffins, biscuits, bagels etc. Large
items should be considered as 2 or 3 regular size. Arrange on plate;
cover with paper towel. For refrigerated rolls or muffins, it may be
necessary to double the entered amount to ensure the proper
serving temperature. For example, enter quantity of 2 for 1
refrigerated muffin.
Use this pad to reheat precooked foods from the refrigerator.
Place meaty portions and bulky vegetables to outside of plate. Cut
large items like baked potatoes in smaller pieces. Flatten foods
such as mashed potatoes and other dense foods. Cover with wax
paper or plastic wrap. ONE PLATE ONLY.
After cooking, check that food is very hot throughout and that the
bottom center of the plate is very hot. If not, continue heating using
time and power level. Allow to stand, covered, 1 to 2 minutes.

OTHER CONVENIENT FEATURES
Multiple Sequence Cooking
The oven can be programmed for up to 3 automatic
cooking sequences, switching from one power level
setting to another automatically.
Sometimes cooking directions tell you to start on one
power level and then change to a different power level.
Your oven can do this automatically.

CLEANING AND CARE
Exterior
The outside surface is painted. Clean the outside with mild soap and water; rinse and dry with a soft
cloth. Do not use any type of household or abrasive cleaner.
Door
Wipe the window on both sides with a damp cloth to remove any spills or spatters. Metal parts will
be easier to maintain if wiped frequently with a damp cloth. Avoid the use of spray and other harsh
cleaners as they may stain, streak or dull the door surface.
Touch Control Panel
Care should be taken in cleaning the touch control panel. If the control panel becomes soiled, open
the oven door before cleaning. Wipe the panel with a cloth dampened slightly with water only. Dry
with a soft cloth. Do not scrub or use any sort of chemical cleaners. Close door and touch STOP/
CLEAR.
Interior
Cleaning is easy because no heat is generated to the interior surfaces; therefore, there is no baking
and setting of spills or spattering. To clean the interior surfaces, wipe with a soft cloth and warm
water. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANERS OR SCOURING PADS. For heavier soil,
use baking soda or a mild soap; rinse thoroughly with hot water.
Wave Guide Cover
The wave guide cover is made from mica so requires special care. Keep the wave guide cover clean
to assure good oven performance. Carefully wipe with a damp cloth any food spatters from the
surface of the cover immediately after they occur. Built-up splashes may overheat and cause smoke
or possibly catch fire. Do not remove the wave guide cover.
Odor Removal
Occasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the oven. To remove, combine 1 cup water, grated peel
and juice of 1 lemon and several whole cloves in a 2 cup glass measuring cup. Boil for several
minutes using 100% power. Allow to set in oven until cool. Wipe interior with a soft cloth.
Turntable/Turntable Support
The turntable and turntable support can be removed for easy cleaning. Wash them in mild, sudsy
water; for stubborn stains use a mild cleanser and scouring sponge as described above. They are
also dishwasher-proof. The turntable motor shaft is not sealed, so excess water or spills should be
wiped up immediately.
