IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTION: READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE Oven Use:
• The oven is for domestic 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 or bypass 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. (See page 28).
• Never attempt to move the oven while it is operating.
Pacemaker: If you have a heart pacemaker, consult your doctor or the pacemaker manufacturer prior to oven use.
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.
Fire: If food overheats, starts to smoke or burn: Keep oven door closed; Turn oven off; Switch off the power at the socket and disconnect the plug from the socket. Failure to follow this procedure may result in fire and oven damage.
Liquids: Take care when microwaving liquids and beverages. To prevent delayed eruptive boiling and possible scalding: Stir liquid prior to and during heating/reheating, let liquid stand in the oven at the end of cooking.
Do not allow anyone to play with the oven, or lean or swing on the oven door.
INSTALLATION
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. 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.
1.Remove all packing materials including the feature sticker. Do not remove the plastic film from the inside of the oven window as this protects it from dirt.
2.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.
3.Ensure there is a minimum of free space above the oven of 19cm.
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.
5.Make sure the power supply cord is undamaged (See Installation next page) 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.
4
BUILDING-IN-KIT.
An installation frame is available which enables the microwave oven to be integrated within a kitchen unit. The microwave oven is not designed to be built above or near a conventional oven. SHARP recommend the use of the build in kit, EBR­4500, available from your SHARP dealer. Only the use of this frame will guarantee the quality and safety of the oven. When building, follow installation instructions supplied for A type models carefully.
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 house wiring to overheat and catch fire.
INSTALLATION
• 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.
• This product is fitted with a re-wireable plug. Should it not be suitable for the socket outlet in your home, remove the plug and fit an appropriate type, observing the wiring code given in `To replace the mains plug’ on page 27.
If you wish to remove or replace the plug supplied, ensure the plug is removed properly and not cut off. 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.
• If the plug or socket is loose or the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced with a special cord. The exchange must be made by an authorised SHARP service agent. A defective plug, power supply cord or socket may overheat and catch fire during operation or cause an electrical shock.
WARNING THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
To wire an appropriate plug, follow the wiring code given in `To replace the mains plug’ on page 27.

IMPORTANT: The microwave power level will default
to 100% (HIGH) unless you press the POWER LEVEL key to the desired setting. To help you decide which power level is suitable, follow the advice given in the charts; for defrosting see page 30-31, for cooking see pages 32-36, for reheating see page 37. Power level: The microwave power level is varied by the microwave energy switching on and off.

MICROWAVING

POWER
LEVEL
Introduction:
Water, sugar and fat in food absorb in microwaves which causes them to vibrate. This creates heat by friction, in the same way your hands get warm when you rub them together. Outer areas of food are heated by microwave energy, and remaining portions by conduction. It is, therefore, important to turn, rearrange or stir food to ensure even heating. Where recommended allow food to stand. This is not optional but necessary to ensure
thorough cooking and is particularly important for dense food, such as joints of meat.
Microwaves pass through non-metallic dishes and utensils and heat the food inside the dishes. Microwaves are reflected by metal. The oven is lined with metal and has a fine metallic mesh in the door to prevent microwave leakage. Metallic dishes are not suitable for microwaving.
HOW TO OPERATE THE OVEN
Opening and closing the door:
To open the oven door, press the door opening button. The oven lamp will come on while the door is open. Close the door firmly and the oven lamp will go out.
Stopping the oven:
If you wish to stop the oven during cooking press STOP/CLEAR or open the oven door. To start the oven, close the door and press START/AUTO MINUTE. If you wish to cancel the cooking programme, press STOP/CLEAR twice.
Prepare and place food in a suitable container onto the turntable or directly onto the turntable. Close the door.
Example:
To melt 50g (2oz) butter on 70% (MEDIUM HIGH) for 30 seconds.
Press the 10 SEC key 3 times
