HOW YOUR OVEN WORKS

Microwaves are energy waves, similar to those
used for TV and radio signals.

Electrical energy is converted into microwave
energy, which is directed into the oven cavity via
a waveguide. To prevent food and grease entering
the wave guide it is protected by the waveguide
cover.

Microwaves cannot pass through metal, because
of this the oven cavity is made of metal and there
is a fine metal mesh on the door.
During cooking the microwaves bounce off the
sides of the oven cavity at random.

The heating category (a letter A to E) developed
by MAFF (Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries
and Food) with microwave oven and food
manufacturers indicates the ability of the oven
to heat small quantities of food (up to 500g
[1lb 2oz]). It does not represent the general
performance of the oven.

Food packs carry cooking instructions for heating
categories A to E. Follow instructions for the
letter corresponding to the oven’s heating
category. The higher the output power and
heating category of the oven the less heating time
is required as shown opposite.

Microwaves will pass through certain materials,
such as glass and plastic, to heat the food.
(See “Suitable Cookware” on page 22).

Water, sugar and fat in food absorb microwaves
which cause them to vibrate. This creates heat
by friction, in the same way your hands get warm
when you rub them together.

The outer areas of the food are heated by the
microwave energy, then the heat moves to the
centre by conduction, as it does in conventional
cooking. It is important to turn, rearrange or stir
food to ensure even heating.

Once cooking is complete, the oven automatically
stops producing microwaves.

Standing time is necessary after cooking, as it
enables the heat to disperse equally throughout
the food.

50P - (MEDIUM output = 400W) for dense foods
which require a long cooking time when cooked
conventionally, eg. beef casserole, it is advisable to use
this power setting to ensure the meat will be tender.

30P - (MEDIUM LOW output = 240W Defrost setting)
to defrost, select this power setting, to ensure that the
dish defrosts evenly. This setting is also ideal for simmering
rice, pasta, dumplings and cooking egg custard.

10P - (LOW output = 80W) For gentle
defrosting, eg. cream gateaux or pastry.

MICROWAVE COOKING ADVICE

Microwaves cook food faster than conventional
cooking. It is therefore essential that certain
techniques are followed to ensure good results.

COOKING ADVICE NOTES:

• Always attend the oven when in use.

• Ensure that the utensils are suitable for

use in a microwave oven. (See “Suitable
Cookware” on page 22).

• Refer to the charts in the cookbook section for
recommended cooking times and power levels.

• Do not place hot foods/utensils on a cold
turntable or cold foods/utensils on a hot
turntable.

WARNING:

Follow instructions in the SHARP operation manual at all times.
If you exceed recommended cooking times and use power levels that are too high, food
may overheat, burn and in extreme circumstances, catch fire and damage the oven.

Cooking Techniques
Arrange

Place the thickest parts of food towards the outside of
the dish. e.g. Chicken drumsticks.
Foods that are placed towards the outside of the dish
will receive more energy, so cook quicker, than those in
the centre.

Many of the following techniques are similar to
those used in conventional cooking.

• Liquids and foods must not be heated in
sealed containers or jars/containers with
lids on, as pressure will build up inside and
may cause the container/jar to explode.

• Only use microwave popcorn within the
recommended packaging (follow the
manufacturers instructions). Never use oil
unless specified by the manufacturer and never
cook for longer than instructed.

Cover

Pierce

Stir, turn and
rearrange

Stand

R-756

Certain foods benefit from being covered during microwave cooking, follow
recommendations where given.
Use vented microwave cling film or a suitable lid.

Foods with a shell, skin or membrane must be pierced
in several places before cooking or reheating as steam
will build up and may cause food to explode.
e.g. Potatoes, Fish, Chicken, Sausages.

NOTE: Eggs in their shells and hard / soft boiled eggs should not be

heated in the microwave oven as they may explode, even
after cooking has ended.

For even cooking it is essential to stir, turn and rearrange food during cooking.
Always stir and rearrange from the outside towards the centre.

Standing time is necessary after cooking as it enables the heat to disperse
equally throughout the food.

20

MICROWAVE COOKING ADVICE

Food Characteristics
Composition

Foods high in fat or sugar (e.g. Christmas pudding, mince pies) require less
heating time. Care should be taken as overheating can lead to fire.
Bones in food conduct heat, making the food cook more quickly. Care must be
taken so that the food is cooked evenly.

Density

Quantity

Size

Shape

Temperature of
food

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.

Food density will affect the amount of cooking time needed.
Light, porous foods, such as cakes or bread, cook more quickly than heavy,
dense foods, such as roasts and casseroles.

The number of microwaves in your oven remains the same regardless of
how much food is being cooked. The cooking time must be increased as the
amount of food placed in the oven increases.
e.g. Four potatoes will take longer to cook than two.

Small foods and small pieces cook faster than large ones, as microwaves can
penetrate from all sides to the centre. For even cooking make all the pieces
the same size.

Foods which are irregular in shape, such as chicken breasts or drumsticks, take
longer to cook in the thicker parts. For even cooking, place the thickest parts
to the outside of the dish where they will receive more energy.
Round shapes cook more evenly than square shapes when microwave cooking.

The initial temperature of food affects the amount of cooking time needed.
Chilled foods will take longer to cook than food at room temperature.
e.g. A cake made with chilled ingredients, (i.e. margarine) will take longer to
cook than a cake made with ingredients 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.

R-756

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

SUITABLE COOKWARE

To cook/defrost food in a microwave oven, the
microwave energy must be able to pass through
the container to penetrate the food. Therefore it
is important to choose suitable cookware.

Round/oval dishes are preferable to square/
oblong ones, as the food in the corners tends to
overcook. A variety of cookware can be used as
listed below.

Comments

Small pieces of aluminium foil can be used to shield
food from overheating. Keep foil at least 2cm from
the oven walls, as arcing may occur.
Foil containers are not recommended unless
specified by the manufacturer, e.g. Microfoil ®,
follow instructions carefully.

Always follow the manufacturers instructions.
Do not exceed heating times given.
Be very careful as these dishes become very hot.

Porcelain, pottery, glazed earthenware and bone
china are usually suitable, except for those with
metallic decoration.

Care should be taken if using fine glassware as it
can break or crack if heated suddenly.

It is not recommended to use metal cookware as it
will arc, which can lead to fire.

Care must be taken as some containers warp, melt
or discolour at high temperatures.

It should not touch the food and must be pierced
to let the steam escape.

Must be pierced to let steam escape. Ensure bags
are suitable for microwave use.
Do not use plastic or metal ties, as they may melt
or catch fire due to the metal ‘arcing’.

Only use for warming or to absorb moisture.
Care must be taken as overheating may cause fire.

Always attend the oven when using these materials
as overheating may cause fire.

May contain extracts of metal which will cause
‘arcing’ and may lead to fire.

NOTE: When heating food in plastic or paper containers, monitor the oven due to the possibility of

ignition.

DEFROSTING ADVICE

Defrosting food using your microwave oven is
the quickest method of all.

Rearrange

Separate

Shield

Stand

Turn over

NOTES:

• Remove all packaging and wrapping before defrosting.

• To defrost food, use microwave power levels MEDIUM LOW or LOW.

Foods that are placed towards the outside of the dish will defrost quicker than
foods in the centre. It is therefore essential that the food is rearranged up to 4
times during defrosting.
Move closely packed pieces from the outside to the centre and rearrange
over-lapping areas.
This will ensure that all parts of the food defrosts evenly.

Foods may be stuck together when removed from the freezer. It is important
to separate foods as soon as it is possible during defrosting.
e.g. bacon rashers, chicken fillets.

Some areas of food being defrosted may become warm. To prevent them
becoming warmer and starting to cook, these areas can be shielded with small
pieces of foil, which reflect microwaves. e.g. legs and wings on a chicken.

Standing time is necessary to ensure food is thoroughly defrosted.
Defrosting is not complete once the food is removed from the microwave
oven. Food must stand, covered, for a length of time to ensure the centre has
completly defrosted.

It is essential that all foods are turned over at least 3 - 4 times during
defrosting. This is important to ensure thorough defrosting.

It is a simple proccess but the following
instructions are essential to ensure the food is
thoroughly defrosted.

R-756

23

REHEATING ADVICE

For the reheating of foods, follow the advice and guidelines below to ensure food is thoroughly
reheated before serving.

Plated meals

Sliced meat

Poultry portions

Casseroles

To achieve the best results when reheating, select a suitable microwave power level appropriate to the
type of food. e.g. A bowl of vegetables can be reheated using HIGH, while a lasagne which contains
ingredients that cannot be stirred, should be reheated using MEDIUM.

NOTES:

• 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.

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

• To avoid overheating and fire, special care must be taken when reheating foods with a high sugar or
fat content, e.g. mince pies or Christmas pudding.

• Never heat oil or fat for deep frying as this may lead to overheating and fire.

• Canned potatoes should not be heated in the microwave oven, follow the manufacturer's instructions

on the can.

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 MEDIUM,
stir/ rearrange halfway through reheating.
NOTE: Ensure the food is thoroughly reheated before

serving.

Cover with vented microwave cling film and reheat on
MEDIUM. Rearrange at least once to ensure even reheating.
NOTE: Ensure the meat is thoroughly reheated

before serving.

Place thickest parts of the portions to the outside of the
dish, cover with vented microwave cling film and reheat
on MEDIUM HIGH. Turn over halfway through reheating.
NOTE: Ensure the poultry is thoroughly reheated

before serving.

Cover with vented microwave cling film or a suitable lid
and reheat on MEDIUM.
Stir frequently to ensure even reheating.
NOTE: Ensure the food is thoroughly reheated before

serving.

The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars are to be stirred or shaken
and the temperature is to be checked before consumption to avoid burns.

R-756

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

OVEN INTERIOR

• It is important to clean the interior of your
microwave oven after each use.

• To clean the oven interior, use a mild detergent
solution, such as washing-up liquid, with warm
water on a soft cloth.

• Food and liquid splashes will build-up on the
oven walls and ceiling. If grease, fat and food
debris is allowed to build-up in the oven
interior it may overheat, smoke or even catch
fire when next using the oven.

• Keep the waveguide cover clean at all times.
The waveguide cover is constructed from a
fragile material and should be cleaned with
care (follow the cleaning instructions above).
NOTE: Excessive soaking may cause
disintegration of the waveguide cover.
The waveguide cover is a consumable part
and without regular cleaning, will need to be
replaced.

• Food will release steam during cooking and
cause condensation inside the oven and door.
It is important to wipe the oven dry. A build­up of condensation will eventually lead to rust
forming on the oven interior.

• Do not allow grease or dirt to build­up on the door seals or areas around
the door. This may prevent the door
from closing correctly and may cause
a leakage of microwaves (follow the
cleaning instructions opposite).

• Ensure the turntable and roller stay are cleaned
after every use with a mild washing-up liquid
solution and dried. This will prevent the build­up of grease and food debris.
The turntable is dishwasher safe.

• CLEAN THE OVEN AT REGULAR
INTERVALS AND REMOVE ANY FOOD
DEPOSITS.
Failure to maintain the oven in a clean
condition could lead to a deterioration
of the surface that could adversely affect
the life of the appliance and possibly
result in a hazardous situation.

OUTER CABINET

• Wipe the outside of the microwave oven with
a mild detergent solution, such as washing-up
liquid, with warm water on a soft cloth.

NOTES:

• Never use spray cleaners, oven pads or abrasive scourers as these damage the surface of the oven.

• A steam cleaner should not be used.

• Take care not to let soapy water drip through the small holes in the oven walls and the cavity floor.

Excess water spillage through these holes will cause damage to the oven interior.

• The control panel must be wiped clean
and dried with the door open, therefore
inactivating the oven.

R-756

TROUBLESHOOTING

If you think the oven is not working properly there
are some simple checks you can carry out yourself
before calling an engineer. This will help prevent
unnecessary service calls if the fault is something
simple.
Follow this simple check below:
Place half a cup of water on the turntable and
close the door. Select HIGH and programme the
oven to cook for 1 minute.

1. Does the oven lamp come on when it is cooking?

2. Does the turntable rotate?

3. Does the cooling fan work? (Check by placing
your hand above the air vent openings.)

4. After 1 minute does the audible signal sound?

5. Is the water in the cup hot?

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 chart below.

NOTE:

If you cook food for more than the standard time
(see chart below) using the same cooking mode, the
oven’s safety mechanisms automatically activate. The
microwave power level will be reduced.

Cooking Mode

WARNING:
Never adjust, repair or modify the oven
yourself. It is hazardous for anyone other
than a SHARP trained engineer to carry
out servicing or repairs.
This is important as it may involve
the removal of covers that provide
protection against microwave energy.

• 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 and Modifications: Do not attempt to
operate the oven if it is not working properly.

• Outer Cabinet & Lamp Access: Never remove
the outer cabinet. This is very dangerous due
to high voltage parts inside which must never
be touched, as this could be fatal.
Your oven is not fitted with a lamp access
cover. If the lamp fails, do not attempt to
replace the lamp yourself, call a SHARP
approved service facility.

R-756

ANSWER

When the 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.

Arcing will occur when a metallic object comes into close 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 the potatoes have been pierced, place
directly onto the turntable or in a heat resistant flan dish or similar.
