To avoid the danger of fi re. The microwave oven should not be left unattended during operation. Power levels that are too high, or cooking times that are too long, may overheat foods resulting in a fi re.
This oven is designed to be used on a countertop only. It is not designed to be built into a kitchen unit. Do not place the oven in a cabinet. The electrical outlet must be readily accessible so that the unit can be unplugged easily in an emergency.
The AC power supply must be 230-240 V, 50 Hz, with a minimum 10 A distribution line fuse, or a minimum 10A distribution circuit breaker. A separate circuit serving only this appliance should be provided.
Do not place the oven in areas where heat is generated. For example, close to a conventional oven. Do not install the oven in an area of high humidity or where moisture may collect. Do not store or use the oven outdoors.
If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the oven and keep the door closed in order to stifl e any fl ames.
Use only microwave-safe containers and utensils. Utensils should be checked to ensure that they are suitable for use in microwave ovens.
When heating food in plastic or paper containers, keep an eye on the oven due to the possibility of ignition.
Clean the waveguide cover and the oven cavity. These must be dry and free from grease. Built up grease may overheat and begin to smoke or catch fire.
Do not place fl ammable materials near the oven or ventilation openings. Do not block the ventilation openings.
Remove all metallic seals, wire twists, etc., from food and food packages. Arcing on metallic surfaces may cause a fire.
Do not use the microwave oven to heat oil for deep frying. The temperature cannot be controlled and the oil may catch fire.
To make popcorn, use only special microwave popcorn makers.
Do not store food or any other items inside the oven.
Check the settings after you start the oven to ensure the oven is operating as desired.
Do not leave the oven unattended while it is operating.
To avoid overheating and fi re, special care must be taken when cooking or reheating foods with a high sugar or fat content, for example, Sausage rolls, Pies or Christmas pudding. See the corresponding hints in the user manual.
To avoid the possibility of injury. WARNING:
Do not operate the oven if it is damaged or malfunctioning. Check the following before use:
a) Make sure the door closes properly and ensure it is not misaligned or warped.

WARNING: Liquids and other foods must not be heated in sealed containers since they are liable to explode. Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling; therefore, care must be taken when handling the container. To avoid the possibility of explosion and sudden boiling:
Never use sealed containers. Remove seals and lids before use. Sealed containers can explode due to a build-up of pressure even after the oven has been turned off. Take care when microwaving liquids. Use a wide mouthed container to allow bubbles to escape.
Never heat liquids in narrow necked containers such as baby bottles, as this may result in the contents erupting from the container when heated and cause burns.
To prevent sudden eruption of boiling liquid and possible scalding:
- Do not use excessive amount of time.
- Stir liquid prior to heating/reheating.
- It is advisable to insert a glass rod or similar (not metal) into the liquid whilst reheating.
- 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. 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.
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. Use pot holders or oven gloves when removing food from the oven to prevent burns. To avoid the possibility of burns:
- Always open containers, popcorn makers, oven cooking bags, etc., away from the face and hands to avoid steam burns and eruption of boiling. To avoid burns, always test food temperature and stir before serving and pay special attention to the temperature of food and drink given to babies, children or the elderly. Accessible parts may become hot during use. Young children should be kept away.
- Temperature of the container is not a true indication of the temperature of the food or drink; always check the food temperature.

SUITABLEOVENWARE
- The ideal material for a microwave utensil is transparent to microwave, it allows energy to pass through the container and heat the food.
- Microwave cannot penetrate metal, so metal utensils or dishes with metallic trim should not be used.
- Do not use recycled paper products when microwave cooking, as they may contain small metal fragments which may cause sparks and/or fires.
- Round /oval dishes rather than square/oblong ones are recommend, as food in corners tends to overcook.
- Narrow strips of aluminum foil may be used to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. But be careful don't use too much and keep a distance of 2.54 cm between foil and cavity
The list below is a general guide to help you select the correct utensils.
| Cookware | Microwave Safe | Comment |
| Browning dishes | ✓ / ✗ | Always follow the manufacturers instructions.Do not exceed heating times given. Be very careful as these dishes become very hot. |
| China and ceramics | ✓ / ✗ | Porcelain, pottery, glazed earthenware and bone china are usually suitable, except for those with metallic decoration. |

| Recycled paper and newspaper | ✗ | Always attend the oven when using these materials as overheating may cause fi re.May contain extracts of metal which will cause 'arcing' and may lead to fi re. |
WARNING: When heating food in plastic or paper containers, monitor the oven due to the possibility of ignition.
NOTE: Do not leave your oven unattended while in use.
Microwaves cook food faster than conventional cooking. It is therefore essential that certain techniques are followed to ensure good results. Many of the following techniques are similar to those used in conventional cooking.
WARNING: 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 jar/container to explode.
COOKING ADVICE NOTES:
• Always attend the oven when in use.
- Ensure that the utensils are suitable for use in a microwave oven.
• Refer to the charts in the cookbook section for recommended cooking times and power levels.
- 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.
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.
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.
Cover
Certain foods benefit from being covered during microwave cooking.
Use vented microwave cling fi Im 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 should not be heated using microwave power as they may explode, even after cooking has ended. e.g. poached, fried, hard boiled.
Stir, turn and rearrange
For even cooking it is essential to stir, turn and rearrange food during cooking. Always stir and rearrange from the outside towards the centre.
Stand
Standing time is necessary after cooking so it enables the heat to disperse equally throughout the food.
| 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 fi re.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 The initial temperature of food affects the amount of cooking time needed.Chilled foods will take longer to cook than food 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 fi llings, for example jam doughnuts, to release heat or steam. | |
WARNING: 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 fl lm), opening roasting bags or popcorn packaging, direct steam away from face and hands.
WARNING: 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.
DEFROSTING ADVICE
Using your microwave oven is the quickest defrosting method. It is a simple process but the following instructions are essential to ensure the food is thoroughly defrosted.
- Remove all packaging and wrapping before defrosting.
• To defrost food, use microwave level, | br Defrost - Please refer to the further information below.
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 over-lapping 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 completely defrosted.
Turn over
It is essential that all foods are turned over up to 4 times during defrosting.
This is important to ensure thorough defrosting.
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 fi lm and reheat on power level 1, 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 power level. 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 power level.
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 power level I.
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 power level 1 1 1 1 1 , while a lasagne which contains ingredients that cannot be stirred, should be reheated using power level 1 .
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.
WARNING: 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.
WARNING: 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.
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. Set the timer know to cook for 1 minute using microwave power level.
- Does the oven lamp come on when it is cooking?
- Does the cooling fan work? (Check by placing your hand above the air vent openings).
- After 1 minute does the audible signal sound?
- 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 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, call a SHARP approved service facility.
TROUBLESHOOTING CHART
| QUERY ANSWER | |
| Draught circulates around the door. | 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. |
| Condensation forms in the oven, and may drip 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. |
| Flashing or arcing from within the cavity when cooking. | 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. |
| Arcing potatoes. Ensure all “eyes” are removed from the potatoes and that they have been pierced, place directly onto the turntable or in a heat resistant fl an dish or similar. | |
| Oven does not work when the timer control is turned away from 0. | Check the door is closed properly. |
| Oven cooks too slowly. Ensure correct power level has been selected. | |
| Oven makes a noise. The microwave energy pulses ON and OFF during cooking/defrosting. | |
| Outer cabinet is hot. The cabinet may become warm to the touch - keep children away. | |
BEFORE CALLING FOR ASSISTANCE
Before asking for service, please check each item below:
- Check to ensure that the oven is plugged in securely. If it is not, remove the plug from the outlet, wait 10 seconds, and plug it in again securely.
- Check for a blown circuit fuse or a tripped main circuit breaker. If these seem to be operating properly, test the outlet with another appliance.
- Check to ensure that the power and timer knobs are set correctly.
- Check to ensure that the door is securely closed engaging the door safety lock system. Otherwise, the microwave energy will not flow into the oven
IF NONE OF THE ABOVE RECTIFIES THE SITUATION, THEN CONTACT A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN. DO NOT TRY TO ADJUST OR REPAIR THE OVEN YOURSELF.
