This oven is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. WARNING – Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Electrical Requirements Check Installation Instructions for proper location for the power supply. The electrical requirements are a 120 volt 60 Hz, AC only, 15 amp. or more protected electrical supply. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only the oven be provided. The oven is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR REMOVE THE GROUNDING PIN FROM THE PLUG. Notes: 1. If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions, consult a qualified electrician or service person. 2. Neither Sharp nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage to the oven or personal injury resulting from failure to observe the correct electrical connection procedures. Radio or TV Interference Should there be any interference caused by the microwave oven to your radio or TV, check that the microwave oven is on a different electrical circuit, relocate the radio or TV as far away from the oven as feasible or check position and signal of receiving antenna. 1.OTX#B282 6/22/01, 1:54 PM I N F O R M AT I O N Y O U N E E D T O K N O W ABOUT YOUR OVEN When using the oven at power levels below 100%, you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off. It is normal for the exterior of the oven to be warm to the touch when cooking or reheating. This Operation Manual is valuable: read it carefully and always save it for reference. A good microwave cookbook is a valuable asset. Check it for microwave cooking principles, techniques, hints and recipes. See pages 25 for ordering the Ultimate Accessory, the SHARP CAROUSEL MICROWAVE COOKBOOK. Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking. Room humidity and the moisture in food will influence the amount of moisture that condenses in the oven. Generally, covered foods will not cause as much condensation as uncovered ones. Vents on the oven back must not be blocked. NEVER use the oven without the turntable and support nor turn the turntable over so that a large dish could be placed in the oven. The turntable will turn both clockwise and counterclockwise. The oven is for food preparation only. It should not be used to dry clothes or newspapers. ALWAYS have food in the oven when it is on to absorb All ovens are rated 1000 watts by using the IEC Test Procedure. In using recipes or package directions, check food a minute or two before the minimum time and add time accordingly. the microwave energy. ABOUT FOOD DON’T FOOD DO Eggs, sausages, nuts, seeds, fruits & vegetables • Puncture egg yolks before cooking to prevent “explosion”. • Cook eggs in shells. • Pierce skins of potatoes, apples, squash, hot dogs and sausages so that steam escapes. • Dry nuts or seeds in shells. Popcorn • Use specially bagged popcorn for the microwave oven. • Pop popcorn in regular brown bags or glass bowls. • Listen while popping corn for the popping to slow to 1 or 2 seconds or use special POPCORN pad. • Exceed maximum time on popcorn package. • Transfer baby food to small dish and heat carefully, stirring often. Check temperature before serving. • Heat disposable bottles. Baby food • Put nipples on bottles after heating and shake thoroughly. “Wrist” test before feeding. General • Cut baked goods with filling after heating to release steam and avoid burns. • Stir liquids briskly before and after heating to avoid “eruption”. • Use deep bowl, when cooking liquids or cereals, to prevent boilovers. • Reheat whole eggs. • Heat bottles with nipples on. • Heat baby food in original jars. • Heat or cook in closed glass jars or air tight containers. • Can in the microwave as harmful bacteria may not be destroyed. • Deep fat fry. • Dry wood, gourds, herbs or wet papers. 1.OTX#B282 6/22/01, 1:54 PM INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT UTENSILS AND COVERINGS becomes very hot should not be used. It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many pieces already in your kitchen can be used successfully in your new microwave oven. Make sure the utensil does not touch the interior walls during cooking. The following coverings are ideal: • Paper towels are good for covering foods for reheating and absorbing fat while cooking bacon. Use these utensils for safe microwave cooking and reheating: • Wax paper can be used for cooking and reheating. • glass ceramic (Pyroceram®), such as Corningware®. • Plastic wrap that is specially marked for microwave use can be used for cooking and reheating. DO NOT allow plastic wrap to touch food. Vent so steam can escape. • heat-resistant glass (Pyrex®) • microwave-safe plastics • paper plates • Lids that are microwave-safe are a good choice because heat is kept near the food to hasten cooking. • microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and porcelain • Oven cooking bags are good for large meats or foods that need tenderizing. DO NOT use metal twist ties. Remember to slit bag so steam can escape. • browning dish (Do not exceed recommended preheating time. Follow manufacturer's directions.) These items can be used for short time reheating of foods that have little fat or sugar in them: How to use aluminum foil in your microwave oven: • wood, straw, wicker • Small flat pieces of aluminum foil placed smoothly on the food can be used to shield areas that are either defrosting or cooking too quickly. DO NOT USE • • • • • • • • metal pans and bakeware dishes with metallic trim non-heat-resistant glass non-microwave-safe plastics (margarine tubs) recycled paper products brown paper bags food storage bags metal twist-ties • Foil should not come closer than one inch to any surface of the oven. Should you have questions about utensils or coverings, check a good microwave cookbook or follow recipe suggestions. ACCESSORIES There are many microwave accessories available for purchase. Evaluate carefully before you purchase so that they meet your needs. A microwave-safe thermometer will assist you in determining correct doneness and assure you that foods have been cooked to safe temperatures. Sharp is not responsible for any damage to the oven when accessories are used. Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving, place the empty dish in the oven and microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds. A dish which ABOUT CHILDREN AND THE MICROWAVE Children below the age of 7 should use the microwave oven with a supervising person very near to them. Between the ages of 7 and 12, the supervising person should be in the same room. Children should be taught all safety precautions: use potholders, remove coverings carefully, pay special attention to packages that crisp food because they may be extra hot. The child must be able to reach the oven comfortably; if not, he/she should stand on a sturdy stool. Don’t assume that because a child has mastered one cooking skill he/she can cook everything. At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or swing on the oven door. Children need to learn that the microwave oven is not a toy. See page 20 for Child Lock feature. 1.OTX#B282 6/22/01, 1:54 PM INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING • Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside of dish. • Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking both from top to bottom and from the center of the dish to the outside. • Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and add more as needed. Food severely overcooked can smoke or ignite. • Add standing time. Remove food from oven and stir, if possible. Cover for standing time which allows the food to finish cooking without overcooking. • Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or cookbook for suggestions: paper towels, wax paper, microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Covers prevent spattering and help foods to cook evenly. • Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that cooking temperatures have been reached. Doneness signs include: • Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil any thin areas of meat or poultry to prevent overcooking before dense, thick areas are cooked thoroughly. - Food steams throughout, not just at edge. • Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice during cooking, if possible. - Poultry thigh joints move easily. • Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking of such foods as chicken and hamburgers. Large items like roasts must be turned over at least once. - Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. - Center bottom of dish is very hot to the touch. - Meat and poultry show no pinkness. ABOUT SAFETY • Check foods to see that they are cooked to the United States Department of Agriculture's recommended temperatures. TEMP 160°F 165°F • ALWAYS use potholders to prevent burns when handling utensils that are in contact with hot food. Enough heat from the food can transfer through utensils to cause skin burns. FOOD • Avoid steam burns by directing steam away from the face and hands. Slowly lift the farthest edge of a dish's covering and carefully open popcorn and oven cooking bags away from the face. ... for fresh pork, ground meat, boneless white poultry, fish, seafood, egg dishes and frozen prepared food. • Stay near the oven while it's in use and check cooking progress frequently so that there is no chance of overcooking food. ... for leftover, ready-to-reheat refrigerated, and deli and carryout “fresh” food. 170°F ... white meat of poultry. 180°F ... dark meat of poultry. • NEVER use the cavity for storing cookbooks or other items. • Select, store and handle food carefully to preserve its high quality and minimize the spread of foodborne bacteria. • Keep waveguide cover clean. Food residue can cause arcing and/or fires. To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer in a thick or dense area away from fat or bone. NEVER leave the thermometer in the food during cooking, unless it is approved for microwave oven use. • Use care when removing items from the oven so that the utensil, your clothes or accessories do not touch the safety door latches. 1.OTX#B282 6/22/01, 1:54 PM PART NAMES FRONT VIEW 11 12 10 13 BOTTOM VIEW 14 (Front of Microwave) (Rear of Microwave) 15 1 Oven door with see-through window 2 Door hinges 3 Waveguide cover: DO NOT REMOVE. 4 Turntable motor shaft 5 Oven light It will light when oven is operating or door is open. 6 Safety door latches The oven will not operate unless the door is securely closed. 7 Time display: Digital display, 99 minutes, 99 seconds 8 LIGHT Hi/Lo pad Press the LIGHT HI/LO pad one time for hi, twice for lo and three times to turn it off. 9 FAN HI/LO pad Press the FAN HI/LO pad to turn on the fan.

Clean the outside with mild soap and water; rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Do not use any type of household or abrasive cleaner. The waveguide cover is located on the right side wall of the oven cavity. It is made from mica so requires special care. Keep the waveguide cover clean to assure good oven performance. Carefully wipe with a damp cloth any food spatters from the surface of the cover immediately after they occur. Built-up splashes may overheat and cause smoke or possibly catch fire. DO NOT REMOVE THE WAVEGUIDE COVER. Door Wipe the window on both sides with a damp cloth to remove any spills or spatters. Metal parts will be easier to maintain if wiped frequently with a damp cloth. Avoid the use of spray and other harsh cleaners as they may stain, streak or dull the door surface. Grease Filters Filters should be cleaned at least once a month. Never operate the fan or oven without the filters in place. Touch Control Panel 1. Pull down slightly on the tab toward the front of the oven and remove the filter. Repeat for the other filter. Care should be taken in cleaning the touch control panel. Wipe the panel with a cloth dampened slightly with water only. Dry with a soft cloth. Do not scrub or use any sort of chemical cleaners. Close door and touch Stop/Clear. 2. Soak the filters in a sink or dish pan filled with hot water and detergent. DO NOT use ammonia or other alkali; they will react with the filter material and darken it. Interior 3. Agitate and scrub with a brush to remove embedded dirt. Cleaning is easy because little heat is generated to the interior surfaces; therefore, there is no baking and setting of spills or spattering. To clean the interior surfaces, wipe with a soft cloth and warm water. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANERS OR SCOURING PADS. For heavier soil, use baking soda or a mild soap; rinse thoroughly with hot water. The rack can be cleaned with hot soapy water, rinsed and dried. 4. Rinse thoroughly and shake dry. 5. Replace by fitting the filter back into the opening. Odor Removal Occasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the oven. To remove, combine 1 cup water, grated peel and juice of 1 lemon and several whole cloves in a 2-cup glass measuring cup. Boil for several minutes using 100% power. Allow to set in oven until cool. Wipe interior with a soft cloth. Turntable/Turntable Support The turntable and turntable support can be removed for easy cleaning. Wash them in mild, sudsy water; for stubborn stains use a mild cleanser and non-abrasive scouring sponge. They are also dishwasher-proof. Use upper rack of dishwasher. The turntable motor shaft is not sealed, so excess water or spills should be wiped up immediately.
