(1) The door (not warped)
(2) The hinges and safety door latches
(not broken or loose)
(3) The door seals and sealing surfaces
(4) The oven cavity (not dented)
(5) The power supply cord or plug
2.
Do not try to adjust or repair the oven yourself.
It is hazardous for anyone other than a qualified
service technician trained by SHARP to carry out
any service or repair operation.
Especially those which involve the removal of a
cover which gives protection against exposure
to microwave energy are very hazardous.
3.
Do not operate the oven with the door open
or alter the safety door latches in any way.
4.
Do not operate the oven if there is an object
between the door seals and sealing surfaces.
5.

PACEMAKERS should check with
their doctor or the manufacturer of the pacemaker
for precautions regarding microwave ovens.
To avoid the possibility of injury
To avoid the possibility of electric shock
1.
Under no circumstances should you remove the
outer cabinet.
2.
Never spill or insert any objects into the door lock
openings or ventilation openings. In the event of
a spill, turn off and unplug the oven immediately,
and call a SHARP service agent.
3.
Do not immerse the power supply cord or plug in
water or any other liquid.

2
1. Never use sealed containers. Remove seals and
lids before use. Sealed containers can explode
due to a build up of pressure even after the oven
has been turned off.
2.
When boiling water or other liquids, use a widemouthed container to allow bubbles to escape. It
is advisable to insert a glass rod or other similar
utensil to prevent sudden boiling (resulting in
splashing or burning).
3.
Do not cook eggs in their shells. They may
explode. The explosion may damage the oven or
injure yourself. To cook or reheat eggs which
have not been scrambled or mixed, pierce the
yolks and whites or the eggs may explode. Shell
and slice hard boiled eggs before reheating them
in the microwave oven.
4.
Pierce the skin on such foods as potatoes, sausages and fruit before cooking, or they may explode.
5. Do not use excessive amount of time to heat.
6. Stand at least for 20 seconds at the end of cooking
to avoid delayed eruptive boiling of liquids.
7. Stir the liquid before and during cooking. Use
extreme care when handling the container or inserting a spoon or other utensil into the container.

CARE AND CLEANING
Disconnect the power supply cord before cleaning or leave the door open to inactivate the oven.
CLEAN THE OVEN AT REGULAR INTERVALS - Keep the oven clean, or it could lead to deterioration of the
surface. This could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.
Exterior:
The outside may be cleaned with mild soap and warm water, wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid the use of
harsh abrasive cleaners.
Door:
Wipe the door and window on both sides, the door seals and adjacent parts frequently with a damp cloth to
remove any spills or spatters. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
Touch Control Panel:
Wipe the panel with a cloth dampened slightly with water only.
Do not scrub or use any sort of chemical cleaners. Avoid the use of excess water.
Interior walls:
To clean the interior surfaces, wipe with a soft cloth and warm water for hygienic reasons. After use wipe
the waveguide cover in the oven with a soft damp cloth to remove any food splashes. Built-up splashes
may overheat and begin to smoke or catch fire. Do not remove the waveguide cover. DO NOT USE A
COMMERCIAL OVEN CLEANER, ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANERS AND SCOURING PADS ON
ANY PART OF YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN. NEVER SPRAY OVEN CLEANERS DIRECTLY ONTO ANY
PART OF YOUR OVEN.
Avoid using excess water. After cleaning the oven, ensure any water is removed with a soft cloth.
Turntable/Roller Stay:
Wash with mild soapy water and dry thoroughly.

1. THE ARRANGEMENT
Arrange foods carefully.
Place thickest areas toward outside of dish.
2. TURNING
Foods such as poultry and joints of meat should be turned over after half the cooking time.
3. COVERING
Cover foods in the microwave if you would normally cover the food in your ordinary oven, or to retain
moisture.
Cover foods such as Vegetables,
Casseroles, or when Reheating.
Use to cover foods:
4. PIERCING
Pierce potatoes, eggs, tomatoes or
any foods with a skin or membrane
to allow steam to escape.
5. SHIELDING
Shield using small pieces of aluminium foil
to shield thin areas of meat, fish and poultry
or edges of cakes to prevent overcooking.
6. STANDING TIME
Standing time is important. After cooking or defrosting ensure adequate standing time. This allows the food
to continue cooking or heating. Refer to cooking guides for each menu or according to manufacturers
instructions.
7. STIRRING
Stir foods from the outside to the centre of the dish,
once or twice during cooking if possible.
Eg. Casseroles and Sauces.
8. SIZE
Small pieces cook faster than large ones. To speed up cooking, cut pieces smaller than 5 cm so microwaves
can penetrate to the centre from all sides. For even cooking, make all the pieces the same size.
9. DENSITY
The depth to which microwaves penetrate food varies depending on the food's density. Porous foods like
minced beef or mashed potatoes microwave faster than dense ones like steak or whole potatoes.
10. FAT AND BONE
Marbling within meat, or a thin, even layer of fat on a roast, speeds cooking. Large fatty areas or excess
drippings in dish attract energy away from meat, and slows cooking. Centre bones do not affect cooking,
but bone on the side of meat conducts heat to the areas next to it.
11. STARTING TEMPERATURE
Frozen or refrigerated foods take longer to heat than food at room temperature. Cooking times in this book
are based on normal storage temperatures.
Since rooms, refrigerators and freezers differ in temperature,
check cooking results at the minimum time.
12. QUANTITY
Microwave cooking times are directly related to the amount of food in the oven. Because energy is absorbed
by the food itself, one potato or a single piece of chicken cooks rapidly. When the energy is divided among
several items, cooking takes more time.
13. CONDENSATION
Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking. The humidity and moisture in food will influence the
amount of condensation in the oven. Generally, covered foods will not cause as much condensation as
uncovered foods. Ensure that the ventilation openings are not blocked.
14. GENERAL
Your microwave oven is capable of heating food and beverages very quickly therefore, it is very important
that you select the appropriate cooking time and power level for the type and quantity of food to be heated.
If you are unsure of the cooking time and power level required, begin with low cooking times and power levels
until the food is sufficiently heated evently throughout.

GLASSWARE
• Ordinary glass is not suitable for cooking but may be used for
short periods for heating foods.
CERAMIC
• Most ovenproof china, and ceramics, are suited.
• Avoid dishes that are decorated with gold or silver leaf.
• Avoid using antique pottery.
• If unsure, check with the manufacturer.
• Metal cookware should be avoided when cooking in the microwave oven.
• Microwave energy is reflected by metal.
• Plastic wrap can be used to cover food.
• Some shrinkage of the wrap may occur, over an extended
cooking time.
• When removing wrap, lift it in such a way to avoid steam burns.
• Do not tie oven bags with metal twist ties, substitute with string.
• For cooking food with high fat content, do not bring the wrap in
contact with the food as it may melt.
• Small amounts may be used to shield certain parts of meat and
fish when cooking or defrosting.
• Remove food in foil trays, if possible, and place in a microwave
safe dish.
• If not possible, place the foil tray onto a heat proof plate allowing
2.5 cm room between the walls of the oven.
• Excessive over heating of these materials may cause a fire in
the microwave oven.
• Paper towels and waxed paper are suitable to use to prevent
splatters.
• These are suitable for use when reheating foods or for short
cooking times.
• Ideal for cooking, reheating and defrosting.
• Some microwave safe plastic cookware are not suitable for
cooking foods with high fat and sugar content.
• Ensure that the preheating time of the dish is not exceeded.
• Ensure that a microwave heat proof dinner plate or suitable
insulator be placed between the turntable and the browning
dish.

NOTE: When freezing minced meat, shape it into flat even sizes.
For fish fillets, chicken fillets and sausages, freeze separately in single flat layers and if necessary
separate into layers with freezer plastic. This will ensure even defrosting.
It is also a good idea to label the packs with the correct weights.
