IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

Oven Use:

• This 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 defect or tamper with 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.

INSTALLATION

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.

W ARNING:

If the door or seals are damaged, the oven must not be operated until it has been repaired by a competent person.

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.

W ARNING:

It is hazardous for anyone other than a competent person to carry out any service or repair operation which involves the removal of a cover which gives protection against exposure to microwave energy .

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.

• Never attempt to move the oven while it is operating.

Childcare: Only allow children to use the oven without supervision when adequate instuctions have been given so that the child is able to use the oven in a safe way and understands the hazards of improper use.

Pacemaker: If you have a heart pacemaker, consult your doctor or the pacemaker manufacturer prior to oven use.

1 . Remove all packing materials and the feature label,

(if attached). 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. The oven door becomes hot during cooking. T o prevent burning, the oven should be placed at least 85cm or more above the floor.

8 . Do not use the oven outdoors.

BUILDING-IN-KIT.

INSTALLATION

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 (for B type) supplied 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.

• If the plug or socket is loose or the power supply cord is damaged, do not operate the oven, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or their service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard. A defective plug, power supply cord or socket may overheat and catch fire during operation or cause an electrical shock.

• 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.

• The 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 55 .

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 AST A approved plug to BS1363, this should be fitted with a brown coloured 13 amp fuse approved by BSI or AST A to BS1362. If you have any doubt about electrical connection seek the help of a qualified electrician.

WARNING THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED

T o wire an appropriate plug, follow the wiring code given in ‘T o replace the mains plug’ on page 53.

MICROWAVING Introduction: Water, sugar and fat in food are

absorbed by the microwaves and 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. (Refer to suitable cookware page 21-22)

Prepare and place food in a suitable container onto the turntable or directly onto the turntable. Close the door.

Opening and closing the door: T o 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.
