To prevent sudden eruption of boiling liquid and
possible scalding:
1. Do not use excessive amount of time.
2. Stir liquid prior to heating/reheating.
3. It is advisable to insert a glass rod or similar utensil
(not metal) into the liquid whilst reheating.
4. Let liquid stand for at least 20 seconds in the oven
at the end of cooking time to prevent delayed
eruptive boiling.
Do not cook eggs in their shells, and whole hard
boiled eggs should not be heated in microwave
ovens since they may explode even after
microwave cooking has ended. To cook or reheat
eggs which have not been scrambled or mixed,
pierce the yolks and the whites, or the eggs may
explode. Shell and slice hard boiled eggs before
reheating them in the microwave oven.
Pierce the skin of such foods as potatoes, sausages
and fruit before cooking, or they may explode.
To avoid the possibility of burns
WARNING: The contents of feeding bottles and
baby food jars must be stirred or shaken and the
temperature checked before consumption, in
order to avoid burns.

as you close the door.
Oven Interior
1. For cleaning, wipe any splatters or spills with a soft
damp cloth or sponge after each use while the oven
is still warm. For heavier spills, use a mild soap and
wipe several times with a damp cloth until all residues are removed. Do not remove the waveguide
cover.
2. Make sure that mild soap or water does not pen-
etrate the small vents in the walls which may cause
damage to the oven.
3. Do not use spray type cleaners on the oven interior.
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.
Turntable and Turntable support

TROUBLESHOOTING
Keep the power supply cord away from heated
surface. If you think the oven is not working properly
there are some simple checks you can carry out
yourself before calling an engineer.
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 .
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?
6. After 3 minutes, does the grill heating element
become red?
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 below.
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, contact your nearest service centre appr ved

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
