6ABOUT  UNPACKING  AND  EXAMINING YOUR MICROWAVE DRAWER1  Remove  all  packing materials from inside the Microwave Drawer. DO  NOT  REMOVE THE  WAVEGUIDE COVER,  wh ich  is located  on  the  top of  t he  Microwave Drawer.2  Remove  the  feature sticker, if there is one. Check the drawer for any  damage,  such as misaligned  or  bent drawer, damaged drawer seals and sealing surfaces, broken or loose drawer guides and dents inside the cavity or on the front side of the drawer. If there is any damage, do not operate the Microwave Drawer and contact your dealer or a SHARP AUTHORIZED SERVICER.RADIO OR TV INTERFERENCEShould  there  be  any  interference  caused  by the  Microwave Drawer to your radio or TV, check that the Microwave Drawer is on a different electrical circuit, relocate the radio or TV as far away from the drawer as feasible or check position and signal of receiving antenna.GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONSThis appliance must be grounded. The Microwave Drawer 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. – Improper use  of  the grounding plug can  result  in  a  risk  of electric shock. Do not use an  extension cord. If  the power supply cord is too short, have a qualied electrician or serviceman install an outlet near the appliance.If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions,  consult  a  qualified  electrician  or  service person.ABOUT YOUR MICROWAVE DRAWERALWAYS have food in the Microwave Drawer when it is on to absorb the microwave energy.The  vent under the  Microwave Drawer  must  not be  blocked. During microwaving, steam may come from the right side of the vent.When using the Microwave Drawer at power levels below 100%, you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off. It is normal for the exterior of the Microwave Drawer 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 inuence the amount of moisture that condenses in the Microwave Drawer. Generally, covered foods will not cause as much condensation as uncovered ones. The Microwave Drawer is for food preparation only. It should not be used to dry clothes or newspapers.Your Microwave Drawer is 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.When opening or closing the Microwave Drawer quickly, food in the Microwave Drawer may be spilled. To clean, please refer to the Cleaning and Care section on page 19.A good microwave cookbook is a valuable asset. Check it for microwave cooking principles, techniques, hints  and recipes. See  page  21  for  ordering  the  Sharp  Carousel  Microwave Cookbook.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 cookbook for suggestions: paper towels, wax paper, microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Covers prevent spattering and help foods to cook even ly.•  Shield with small at 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.Waveguide CoverSealing SurfaceOven CavitySealing SurfaceINFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW3-Prong plugGrounding pin3-Prong receptacleGrounded receptacle boxPermanent and Correct InstallationGrounding adapterGrounded receptacle boxScrewTab for grounding screwTemporary Use518_KB-6524P,6525P OM.indd   6 12/17/08   9:11:57 AM
7•  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.•  Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking both from top to bottom and from right to left.•  Add standing time. Remove food from Microwave Drawer and stir, if possible. Cover for standing time which allows the food to nish 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 akes easily with a fork.ABOUT UTENSILS AND COVERINGSIt is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many pieces already in your kitchen can be used successfully in your new Microwave Drawer. Make sure the utensil does not touch the interior walls during cooking.Use these utensils for safe microwave cooking and reheating:•   glass ceramic (Pyroceram®), such as Corningware®.•   heat-resistant glass (Pyrex®)•   microwave-safe plastics•   microwave-safe paper plates•   microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and porcelain•   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:•   wood, straw, wickerDO 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-tiesShould  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 becomes very hot should not be used.The following coverings are ideal:•  Paper towels are good for covering foods for reheating and absorbing fat while cooking bacon.•  Wax paper can be used for cooking and reheating.•  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.•  Lids that are microwave-safe are a good choice because heat is kept near the food to hasten cooking.•  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.How to use aluminum foil in your Microwave Drawer:•  Small at pieces of aluminum foil placed smoothly on the food can be used to shield areas that are either defrosting or cooking too quickly.•   Foil should not come closer than one inch to any surface of the Microwave Drawer.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  Microwave  Drawer  when accessories are used.ABOUT CHILDREN AND THE MICROWAVEChildren below the age of 7 should use the Microwave Drawer with  a  supervising  person  very  near  to  them.  Between  the ages of 7 and 12, the supervising person should be in the same room. The child must be able to reach the Microwave Drawer co m for t ably.At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or swing on the Microwave Drawer.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.Donʼt assume that because a child has mastered one cooking skill he/she can cook everything.Children need to learn that the Microwave Drawer is not a toy. See page 17 for Control Lock feature.INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW518_KB-6524P,6525P OM.indd   7 12/17/08   9:11:58 AM
8ABOUT SAFETYCheck foods to see that they are cooked to the United States • Department of Agricultureʼs recommended temperatures.145˚F  -  Fish.160˚F - Pork, ground beef/veal/lamb, egg dishes165˚F  - For leftover, ready-to-reheat refrigerated, and deli and  carry-out  “fresh”  food.  Whole,  pieces  and ground turkey/chicken/duck.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 use.•  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.INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW•  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 Microwave Drawer while it’s in use and check cooking progress  frequently so  that there  is  no  chance of overcooking food.•  NEVER use the Microwave Drawer 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 res. See page 19.ABOUT FOODSFOOD DO DON’TEggs, sausages, fruits & vegetables•  Puncture egg yolks before cooking to prevent “explosion”.•  Pierce skins of potatoes, apples, squash, hot dogs and sausages so that steam escapes.•  Cook eggs in shells.•  Reheat whole eggs.•  Dry nuts or seeds in shells.Popcorn •  Use  specially  bagged  popcorn  for  the microwave.•  Listen while popping corn for the popping to slow to 1 or 2 seconds or use special Sensor Popcorn pad.•  Pop popcorn in regular brown bags or glass bowls.•  Exceed maximum time on popcorn package.Baby food •  Transfer  baby  food  to  small  dish  and  heat carefully, stirring often. Check temperature before serving.•  Put nipples on bottles after heating and shake thoroughly. “Wrist” test before feeding.•  Heat disposable bottles.•  Heat bottles with nipples on.•  Heat baby food in original jars.General •  Cut baked goods with lling 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.•  Food should be shorter than the Microwave Drawer. Please refer to the height of side walls of the drawer.•  Heat  or  cook  in  closed  glass  jars  or  airtight containers.•  Can in the microwave as harmful bacteria may not be destroyed.•  Deep fat fry.•  Dry wood, gourds, herbs or wet papers.518_KB-6524P,6525P OM.indd   8 12/17/08   9:11:58 AM

The sensor adjusts the cooking times and power levels for various foods and quantities.USING SENSOR SETTINGS:  1   After  the  Microwave  Drawer  is  plugged  in,  wait  2 minutes before using any sensor setting.  2   Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and the interior of the Microwave Drawer are dry. Wipe off any moisture with a dry cloth or paper towel. 3   The  sensor  works  with  foods  at  normal  storage temperature. For example, popcorn would be at room temperature. 4   Any sensor selection can be programmed with More or Less Time Adjustment. See page 17. 5  More or less food than the quantity listed in the charts should  be  cooked  following  the  guidelines  in  any microwave cookbook. 6  During the rst part of sensor use, the food name will appear on the display. Do not open the Microwave Drawer or touch Stop/Clear during this part of the cycle. The measurement of vapor will be interrupted. If this occurs, an error message will appear. To continue cooking, touch the Stop/Clear pad and cook manually.    When the  sensor  detects  the  vapor emitted  from  the food,  the  remainder  of  cooking/reheating  time  will appear. The Microwave Drawer may be opened when the remaining time appears on the display. At this time, you may stir or season food, as desired. 7  Except for Popcorn, if the sensor does not detect vapor properly when  cooking  other foods,  ERROR   will  be displayed, and the microwave will turn off. 8   Check  food  temperature  after  cooking.  If  additional time is needed, continue to cook manually. 9  Each food has a cooking hint.

After nal stage, small sections may still be icy. Let stand to continue thawing. Do not cook until all ice crystals are thawed.•  Shielding  prevents  cooking  from  occurring  before  the center of the food is defrosted. Use small smooth strips of aluminum foil to cover edges and thinner sections of the food.DEFROST CHARTFOOD AMOUNT PROCEDURE1  Ground meat .5 - 2.0 lb Remove any thawed pieces after each audible signal.

Follow the exact 3-step procedure found under TO SET POWER LEVEL on page 11. Estimate defrosting time and touch Power Level pad eight times for 30% power.For either raw or previously cooked frozen food the rule of thumb is approximately 4 minutes per pound. For example, defrost 4 minutes for 1 pound of frozen spaghetti sauce.Always  stop  the  oven  periodically to remove  or  separate 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  on  Power  Level 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.518_KB-6524P,6525P OM.indd   14 12/17/08   9:12:03 AM

19CLEANING AND CAREEXTERIORThe outside surface is precoated metal and plastic. 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.STAINLESS STEEL SURFACE    (SELECT MODELS)   The exterior should be wiped often with a soft damp cloth and polished with a soft dry cloth to maintain its beauty. There are also a variety of products designed especially for cleaning and shining the stainless exterior of the oven. We recommend that the cleaner be applied to a soft cloth and then carefully used on the stainless exterior rather than sprayed directly on to it. Follow package directions carefully.FRONT SIDE OF THE DRAWERWipe the window on both sides with a soft damp cloth to remove any spills or spatters. Metal parts will be easier to maintain if wiped frequently with a soft damp cloth. Avoid the use of spray and other harsh cleaners as they may stain, streak or dull the drawer surface.TOUCH CONTROL PANELIf desired, the touch pads may be deactivated before cleaning. See the Control Lock information on page 16 of this manual.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 drawer and follow directions on page 16 for turning Control Lock off. Touch Stop/Clear.INTERIOR   Before cleaning the the Microwave Drawer, touch and hold the Control Lock button for  3  seconds to  lock the control pad  and  the  automatic  door  mechanism.  The  drawer  can be locked in either the open or closed position. The display will show  LOCK ON .    This  will  prevent  the  drawer  from accidentally  opening  or  closing  during  cleaning.  After cleaning,  touch  and  hold  the  Control  Lock  button  for  3  seconds to  turn  the  lock off.  The  display will  show LOCK  OFF .Cleaning is easy because no heat is generated to the interior surfaces; therefore, there is no baking and setting of spills or spattering. To clean the interior surfaces, including drawer sealing surfaces, wipe with a soft damp cloth. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE  OR  HARSH  CLEANERS  OR  SCOURING PADS. For heavier soil, use mild soap; wipe clean with a soft damp cloth. Do not use any chemical oven cleaners.MICROWAVE DRAWER GUIDES   Remove the food crumbs from the Microwave Drawer guides. Wipe with a soft dry cloth in order to keep the Microwave Drawer opening and closing smoothly. WAVEGUIDE COVER   ATTENTION  The waveguide cover, located on the inside top of the Microwave Drawer area, is made from mica, so it requires special care. Keep the waveguide cover clean to assure good microwave performance. Carefully wipe with a soft 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 re. Do not remove the waveguide cover.ODOR REMOVALOccasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the Microwave Drawer. To remove odor, combine 1 cup water, grated peel and juice of one lemon and several whole cloves in a 2-cup glass microwave-safe measuring cup. Boil for several minutes using 100% power. Leave in  the Microwave  Drawer  until water cools. Wipe interior with a soft cloth.518_KB-6524P,6525P OM.indd   19 12/17/08   9:12:07 AM
