This appliance must be grounded. 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 electri-

cal short circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric

current.

WARNINGWARNING

WARNING – Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

Electrical RequirementsElectrical Requirements

Electrical Requirements

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 serv-

ing only this appliance 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. Should you

only have a 2-prong outlet, have a qualified electrician install a correct wall

receptacle.

A 3-prong adapter may be purchased and used temporarily if local codes

allow. Follow package directions.

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce risk of becoming entangled

in or tripping over a longer cord.

Extension CordExtension Cord

Extension Cord

If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord

that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept

the plug on the microwave oven. The marked rating of the extension cord

should be AC 115-120 volt, 15 amp. or more.

Be careful not to drape the cord over the countertop or table where it can be

pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.

Notes:1. If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical in-

structions, 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 InterferenceRadio or TV Interference

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.

DO DONﾕT

FOOD

This Operation Manual is valuable: read it carefully and

always save it for reference.

Good recipes are included in this operation manual.

Check them as well as this section for cooking principles,

techniques, hints.

NEVERNEVER

NEVER use the oven without the turntable and sup-

port nor turn the turntable over so that a large dish could

be placed in the oven. Only remove for cleaning or for the

menus specified in this manual. The turntable will turn

both clockwise and counterclockwise.

ALWAYSALWAYS

ALWAYS have food in the oven when it is on to ab-

sorb the microwave energy.

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.

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. Gener-

ally, covered foods will not cause as much condensation

as uncovered ones. Vents on the oven back must not be

blocked.

After using, the cooling fan may come on to cool the

oven cavity. The display will show COOLING, and you

will hear the sound of the fan.

Unlike microwave-only ovens, your oven may become

hot during cooking. Be cautious.

The oven is for food preparation only. It should not be

used to dry clothes or newspapers.

Your oven is rated 650 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.

INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW

ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKINGABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING

ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING

･Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards

outside of dish.

･Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount

of time indicated and add more as needed. Food

severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.

･Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or cook-

book for suggestions: paper towels, wax paper,

microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Covers prevent

spattering and help foods to cook evenly.

･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.

･Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice

during cooking, if possible.

･Turn foods over once during microwaving to

speed cooking of such foods as chicken and ham-

burgers. Large items like roasts must be turned over

at least once.

INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW

･Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway

through cooking both from top to bottom and from

the center of the dish to the outside.

･Add standing time. Remove food from oven and

stir, if possible. Cover for standing time which allows

the food to finish cooking without overcooking.

･Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that

cooking temperatures have been reached.

Doneness signs include:

- Food steams throughout, not just at edge.

- Center bottom of dish is very hot to the touch.

-Poultry thigh joints move easily.

-Meat and poultry show no pinkness.

-Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

･Check foods to see that they are cooked to the

United States Department of Agriculture's

recommended temperatures.

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 using a microwave thermometer when cooking

with only microwave power.

･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.

･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.

･Stay near the oven while it's in use and check

cooking progress frequently so that there is no

chance of overcooking food.

･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.

･Use care when removing items from the oven so

that the utensil, your clothes or accessories do not

touch the safety door latches.

ABOUT CHILDREN AND THE MICROWAVEABOUT CHILDREN AND THE MICROWAVE

ABOUT CHILDREN AND THE MICROWAVE

Children below the age of 7 should use the microwave

oven with a supervising person very near to them. Be-

tween the ages of 7 and 12, the supervising person

should be in the same room.

The child must be able to reach the oven comfortably; if

not, he/she should stand on a sturdy stool.

At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or swing on

the oven door.

• The oven cabinet, cavity, door, accessories and

dishes will become hot. To PREVENT BURNS, use

thick oven gloves when removing the food or

turntable from the oven.

• When preheating, the turntable can be left in or

removed. When preheat is over, open oven door and

quickly place turntable and foods to be baked inside.

• Do not cover turntable with aluminum foil.

• Round pizza pans are excellent cooking utensils for

many items. Choose pans that do not have extended

handles.

MANUAL DEFROSTMANUAL DEFROST

MANUAL DEFROST

If the food that you wish to defrost is not listed on the

EXPRESS DEFROST CHART or is above or below the

limits in the “Amount” column on the EXPRESS DE-

FROST CHART, you need to defrost manually.

You can defrost any frozen food, either raw or previ-

ously cooked, by using 30% Power Level. See page

10. Estimate defrosting time and press MICRO 4 times

for 30% when you select the power level.

For either raw or previously cooked frozen food the

rule of thumb is approximately 5 minutes per pound.

For example, defrost 5 minutes for 1 pound of frozen

spaghetti sauce.

Always stop the oven periodically to remove or sepa-

rate the portions that are defrosted. If food is not

defrosted at the end of the estimated defrosting

time, program the oven in 1 minute increments at 30%

until totally defrosted.

When using plastic containers from the freezer, defrost

only long enough to remove from the plastic in order

to place in a microwave-safe dish.

Spatters may occur because of moisture and grease.

Wash immediately after use with hot, soapy water.

Rinse and polish dry. Harder to remove spatters may

occur if oven is not thoroughly cleaned or if there is

long time/high temperature cooking. If so, you may

wish to purchase an oven cleaner pad with liquid

cleaner within it--not a soap filled steel pad--for use on

stainless or porcelain surfaces. Follow manufacturer's

directions carefully and be especially cautious not to

get any of the liquid cleaner in the perforations on the

wall or ceiling or any door surfaces.

Rinse thoroughly and polish dry. After cleaning the

interior thoroughly, residual grease may be removed

from the interior ducts and heater by simply operating

the oven on 400°F. for 20 minutes without food.

Ventilate the room if necessary.
