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.
Microwaves will pass through certain materials, such as glass and plastic, to heat the food. (See ‘Suitable Cookware’ on page 30).
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.

GRILL COOKING
The grill at the top of the oven cavity has one power setting only. The grill is assisted by the turntable which rotates simultaneously to ensure even browning. Use the racks for grilling small items of food such as bacon, gammon and teacakes, turn over halfway through grilling. Food can be placed either directly onto the racks, or into a flan dish/heat-resistant plate on the racks.
NOTES:
• It is not necessary to preheat the grill before cooking.
• Follow the recommended grilling times and procedures in the charts on page 44 in the cookbook section.
• When browning foods in a deep container, place on the turntable or low rack.
• The shelves are not suitable for grill cooking.
• After cooking is complete and opening the door, the cooling fan will continue working for a short time to lower the temperature of the electrical and mechanical parts. The display may show “NOW COOLING”.

PREHEATING THE OVEN
Your oven can be preheated to a desired temperature prior to convection cooking.
NOTES:
• When the oven is preheating, the turntable should be in the oven.
• When the oven reaches the desired temperature, the audible signal will sound and the temperature will be displayed in ºC.
Do not press the STOP/CLEAR key after opening and closing the door, as this will cancel the Convection mode.
• The preheated temperature will be maintained for approximately 30 minutes. After this time, preheat will be cancelled.
• During preheating and convection cooking, you will hear the cooling fan cycling on and off. This is completely normal and will not affect the cooking.
• You can check the actual temperature during preheating by pressing the CONV. (ºC) key. The temperature will appear on the display. This will not affect the oven operation.
• If you prefer not to preheat the oven where recommended in the cookbook section, allow extra cooking time.
• Temperature measurements taken whilst the oven is in convection mode will differ from the displayed level. This will not affect the cooking results as long as the operation manual and cookbook section are followed correctly.
Example:
To preheat the oven to 180ºC.
1. Enter the temperature by pressing the CONV. (ºC) key 6 times.
x6
2. Press the START key once to start
preheating.
x1
3. When the oven reaches 180ºC, the audible signal
will sound and the oven will display 180ºC. Place food in the oven, enter the desired cooking time and press the START key.
NOTE FOR SHELVES:
When using the shelves follow the notes below:
• The correct position for the shelves is 1 and 2, as shown in the diagram below.
• Do not place food weighing more than 5kg on the shelves.
• When removing the food, pull the shelf until it is slightly locked, then remove the food.
WARNING:
The door, outer cabinet, oven cavity, accessories and dishes will become very hot during operation. To prevent burns, always use thick oven gloves.

CONVECTION COOKING
The temperatures available in ºC are:
250ºC, 230ºC, 220ºC, 200ºC, 190ºC,
180ºC, 160ºC, 130ºC, 100ºC, 40ºC.
Convection cooking is ideal for cooking cakes, buns, biscuits, scones and for proving bread at 40˚C.
To achieve the best results when cooking by CONVECTION:
• Use the lower shelf for one layer cooking unless food manufacturer’s instructions differ.
• Use the lower and upper shelves for two layer cooking.
• Rotate the cookware 180 degrees after half the cooking time.
• Where possible, place food in its container directly onto the shelf.
• The turntable should be in the oven when using the shelves.
• Although this product is a conventional convection oven, consideration has to be given to the smaller size and power of the product in comparison to a standard kitchen oven, so the final result may vary.
• When cooking chilled or frozen foods on CONVECTION mode, allowance must be given to heat loss after the preheat cycle due to the insertion of the food.
NOTES:
• When the oven is preheating, the turntable should be in the oven.
• When using the CONV. (ºC) key, all metal cookware can be used. (See ‘Suitable Cookware’ on page 30).
• Follow convection times and procedures in the charts and recipes in the cookbook section.
• Food manufacturers instructions are only a guide­line, so cooking times may need to be adjusted.
• Pressing the CONV. (ºC) key during cooking will display the programmed temperature. This will not affect the programme or cooking time.
• Always check the food is piping hot before consuming.
• After cooking is complete and opening the door, the cooling fan will continue working for a short time to lower the temperature of the electrical and mechanical parts. The display may show “NOW COOLING”.
• Heat generated by the oven during convection cooking may cause the backplate of the oven to discolour. This is completely normal and will not affect the performance of the oven.
Example:
To cook for 20 minutes at 200ºC convection.
1. Enter the cooking time by pressing the 10 MIN. key twice.
x2
2. Input the temperature by pressing the CONV. (ºC) key 4 times.

The display will count down
through the cooking time.
NOTE FOR USING SHELVES:
When using the shelves follow the notes below to prevent them slipping out:
• The correct position for the shelves is 1 and 2, as shown in the diagram.
• Do not place food weighing more than 5kg on the shelves.
• When removing the food, pull the shelf until it is slightly locked, then remove the food.
WARNING:
The door, outer cabinet, oven cavity, accessories and dishes will become very hot during operation. To prevent burns, always use thick oven gloves.

• 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 Certain foods benefit from being covered during microwave cooking, follow
recommendations where given. Use vented microwave cling film or a suitable lid.
Pierce 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.
Stir, turn and rearrange
Stand Standing time is necessary after cooking so it enables the heat to disperse equally
For even cooking it is essential to stir, turn and rearrange food during cooking. Always stir and rearrange from the outside towards the centre.

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 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.
Quantity 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.
Size 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.
Shape 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.
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.
Check the temperature of food and drink, 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.
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.

Conv­ection
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 when using microwave power as it will arc, which can lead to fire.
Care must be taken as some containers warp, melt or discolour at high temperatures.
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 or convection 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.
The metal racks supplied have been specially designed for all cooking modes and will not damage the oven.
Use supplied shelves with Convection only.
Warning: 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 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 over­lapping areas. This will ensure that all parts of the food defrosts evenly.
Separate 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.
Shield 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.
Stand 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.
Turn over It is essential that all foods are turned over at least 3 - 4 times during defrosting.
This is important to ensure thorough defrosting.
NOTES:
• Remove all packaging and wrapping before defrosting.
• To defrost food, use microwave power levels 30% or 10%.
• Please refer to the defrosting chart on page 38 for further information.
It is a simple proccess but the following instructions are essential to ensure the food is thoroughly defrosted.
31
R-959M-A.indd 31R-959M-A.indd 31 7/6/09 3:30:12 PM7/6/09 3:30:12 PM
REHEATING ADVICE
For the reheating of foods, follow the advice and guidelines below to ensure food is thoroughly reheated before serving.
Plated meals 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 50%, stir/rearrange halfway through reheating. NOTE: Ensure the food is thoroughly reheated before
serving.
Sliced meat Cover with vented microwave cling film and reheat on 50%.
Rearrange at least once to ensure even reheating. NOTE: Ensure the meat is thoroughly reheated before
serving.
Poultry portions Place thickest parts of the portions to the outside of the
dish, cover with vented microwave cling film and reheat on 70%. Turn over halfway through reheating. NOTE: Ensure the poultry is thoroughly reheated before
serving.
Casseroles Cover with vented microwave cling film or a suitable lid
and reheat on 50%. Stir frequently to ensure even reheating. NOTE: Ensure the food is thoroughly reheated before
serving.
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 100%, while a lasagne which contains ingredients that cannot be stirred, should be reheated using 50%.
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.
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.

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.
• Heat up your oven regularly by using the convection and grill, refer to “Heating without food” on page 12. Remaining food or fat splashed can cause smoke or bad smell.
• 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 build-up of condensation will eventually lead to rust forming on the oven interior.
• Do not allow grease or dirt to build-up 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).
• Ensure the accessories are cleaned after every use with a mild washing-up liquid solution and dried. This will prevent the build-up of grease and food debris. The accessories are dishwasher safe.
• Keep the waveguide cover and accessories clean at all times. If you leave grease or fat in the cavity or accessories, it may overheat, cause arcing, smoke or even catch fire when next using the oven.
SPECIAL NOTE for TURNTABLE SUPPORT
After cooking, always clean the turntable support,
especially around the rollers. These must be free from food splashes and grease. Built-up splashes or grease may overheat and cause arcing, begin to smoke or catch fire.
roller
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.
Cleaning tip - For easier cleaning of your oven:
Place half a lemon in a bowl, add 300ml (1/2 pint) water and heat on 100% for 10 - 12 minutes. Wipe the oven clean using a soft, dry cloth.
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.
• The control panel must be wiped clean and dried with the door open, therefore inactivating the oven.
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.
• Slight tarnishing of the oven cavity, around the area of the grill, is likely to occur. This is normal and will not affect the ovens performance.
WARNING:
Before cleaning, make sure the oven cavity, door, oven cabinet and accessories are completely cool.
Door
• To remove all trace of dirt, regularly clean both sides of the door, the door seals and adjacent parts with a soft, damp cloth.
• Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.

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. Programme the oven to cook for 1 minute using 100% microwave power.
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?
Take the cup of water out of the oven and close the door. Programme the oven to cook for 3 minutes using the grill.
6. After 3 minutes, does the grill heating element become red?
Programme the oven to cook for 3 minutes using the convection on 250ºC.
7. After 3 minutes, is the oven cavity 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 troubleshooting chart on the following page.
NOTES:
• If you cook food for more than the standard
time (see chart opposite) using the same cooking mode, the oven’s safety mechanisms automatically activate. The microwave power level will be reduced or the grill heating element will turn on and off.
• After manual or automatic cooking using the Grill,
Dual Cook or Convection modes, the cooling fan will continue working to cool the oven cavity. When the cooling fan works, the display may show “NOW COOLING”. To clear it, press the STOP/CLEAR key and the display will return to “.0”.
During these modes, the cooling fan will carry
on working after you have pressed the STOP/ CLEAR key. You may feel hot air blowing out of the air-vent openings.
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.
IMPORTANT:
If the display is blank and has gone dark, even if the power plug is properly connected, the oven may be in Energy Save Mode. To cancel it, open and then close the oven door, see page 8.

The display shows message for “DEMO MODE”, or the time in the display is counting down very rapidly.
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.
