When heating food in plastic containers, pay special attention to the melting temperature of the containers. Never heat the plastic containers at over their melting temperature. Keep an eye on the oven due to the possibility of melting and ignition. DISH CHECK. If you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving, place the empty dish in the oven and microwave on 100% power for 30 seconds. If the dish becomes very hot, do NOT use it for microwaving. ACCESSORIES There are many microwave or heat-resistant 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 when using microwave-only cooking. Sharp is not responsible for any damage to the oven when accessories are used. For automatic cooking, use the recommended container in the cooking chart in this operation manual or the cookbook. ABOUT STEAM COOKING There are certain techniques for cooking with steam. It is essential that these techniques are followed for good results. Many of them are similar to those used in conventional cooking so may require little change. Note information in all of the charts in the cookbook for all cooking options that use Steam (Healthy Cooking*, Steam Cook High, Steam Cook Low). *Except for Auto Grill • • • • Always attend the oven when in use. Use utensils/cookware suitable for the cooking mode as described on page 7. Ventilate the room to allow the steam to dissipate. After cooking and the oven has cooled, remove and empty the water tank, wipe oven cavity with a soft cloth or sponge. Empty the drip tray. FOR STEAM COOKING Cooking Techniques Container Ensure food is arranged evenly. Food which has little or no space between will take longer to cook, please ensure food is positioned with enough space between items to allow the steam to circulate around it. For the container, a shallow dish is suitable. It is not recommended to use dense dishes, because of the thickness of such dishes, recommended cooking times will have to be extended. Covering Covering is not necessary in most cases. If a cover is required, aluminum foil is recommended to keep food from becoming wet from the condensed water in the oven cavity. Covered food will take longer to cook. Door For accurate cooking times, keep the door closed. Stir Sometimes soups or casseroles reheated without covering look watery after cooking. Appearance will be better if stirred well. Stand Standing time is recommended after cooking to allow heat to disperse equally throughout the food. Do not allow to stand in the oven for a long time; food may be overcooked or wet from the residual steam. SEC AX1100S_en.indd Sec1:8 10.11.16 2:52:59 PM INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW FOR STEAM COOKING Food Characteristics Density Food density will affect the amount of cooking time. Cut the food into thinner parts, if possible, and arrange in single layer. Quantity The cooking time must be increased as the amount increases. Size Small foods and small pieces cook faster than large ones, as heat can penetrate from all sides to the center. For even cooking make all the pieces the same size. Shape Foods which are irregular in shape, such as chicken breasts or drumsticks, may take longer to cook in the thicker parts. Check that these parts are cooked thoroughly before serving. Temperature of Food The initial temperature of food affects the cooking time. Chilled foods will take longer to cook than foods at room temperature. The temperature of the container is not the actual temperature of the food or drink. Seasoning and Flavoring Seasoning or flavoring are best added after cooking. If added as marinades or rubs, the taste may become less pronounced when cooking with steam. Add seasoning or flavoring again after cooking, if necessary. • Check that food is thoroughly cooked/reheated before serving. • Cooking time will be affected by the shape, depth, quantity and temperature of food together with the size, shape and material of the container. CAUTION: • Always use dry pot holders or oven mitts to remove food or utensils from the oven. • Be careful when opening the oven door to allow steam to dissipate. • Do not remove the food from the oven with your bare hand. • Check the temperature of food and drink and stir before serving. • Take special care when serving to babies, children or the elderly. ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING ALWAYS have food in the oven when it is on to absorb the microwave energy. Your oven is rated 900 watts using the IEC Test Procedure. In using recipes or package directions, check food at the minimum time and add time accordingly. 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. Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas toward outside of dish. Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and add more as needed. Foods 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 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 hamburgers. Large items like roasts or turkey breasts must be turned over at least once. * Rearrange foods like 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. SEC AX1100S_en.indd Sec1:9 10.11.16 2:52:59 PM INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT FOOD WHEN USING THE MICROWAVE MODE DO DON’T Eggs, sausages, nuts, seeds, 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 oven. * Listen while popping corn for the popping to slow to 1 or 2 seconds or use SENSOR POPCORN for “ no-guess” popping. * 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 baby food in original jars. * Heat disposable bottles. * Heat bottles with nipples on. General * Cut baked goods with filling after heating to release steam and avoid burns. * Stir liquid briskly before and after heating to avoid “ eruption”. * Use deep bowl when cooking liquid or cereal to prevent boilovers. * 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. ABOUT CHILDREN ABOUT SAFETY Children below the age of 7 should use the 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. • Check foods to see that they are cooked to the United States Department of Agriculture's recommended temperatures. TEMP 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. Children should be taught all safety precautions. 145°F (63°C) ... for beef, lamb or veal cut into steaks, chops or roasts, fish 160°F (71°C) ... for fresh pork, ground meat, fish, seafood, egg dishes, frozen prepared food and beef, lamb or veal cut into steaks, chops or roasts 165°F (74°C) ... for leftover, ready-to-reheat refrigerated, deli and carry out “fresh” food, whole chicken or turkey, chicken or turkey breasts and ground poultry used in chicken or turkey burgers. NOTE: Do not cook whole, stuffed p o u l t r y. C o o k s t u ff i n g separately to 165°F (74°C). Don’t assume that because a child has mastered one cooking skill he/she can cook everything. Children need to learn that the oven is not a toy. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the oven. FOOD 10 SEC AX1100S_en.indd Sec1:10 10.11.16 2:52:59 PM INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW • 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. • Accessible parts (e.g. oven door, oven cavity, dishes, accessories and especially the grill heating element) may become hot during use. Use dry pot holders or oven mitts when removing container, food and oven accessories from the oven and be careful not to touch the oven cavity to prevent burns. • Use care when opening door. Avoid steam burns by directing steam away from the face and hands. Always stand back from the oven when opening it. • 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. • Use care when removing items from the oven so that the utensil, your clothes or accessories do not touch the door projection. • Do not touch around the oven light. This part will become hot when the oven light is on. • To avoid burns, always be careful of splashing grease from the baking tray when removing roasted or broiled meats from the oven. • To avoid burns, always test food and container temperature and stir before serving. Pay special attention to the temperature of containers, foods and drinks. Do not drink beverage or soup without checking the container’s temperature. • Do not touch the oven door, outer cabinet, rear cabinet, oven cavity, ventilation openings, accessories, dishes and the escaping steam from the air vent openings during operation because they will become hot. • Do not operate the oven if water tank cracks and water leaks. Call 1-800-BE-SHARP to purchase a replacement part. • After use, condensed water may be inside oven cavity, especially on the oven floor. Dry any liquid residue with a sponge and wipe out to keep the oven clean. • Do not place anything on the outer cabinet during operation. • Do not move the oven during the operation. If the oven needs to be moved, always drain all water inside the oven using the DRAIN WATER function (See page 16). After draining, empty the drip tray. • To prevent condensation, which could corrode the appliance, do not leave cooked food in the oven for an extended period. • Clean the oven at regular intervals and remove any food deposits in the oven or on the door. • Do not heat oil or fat for deep frying. • 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. In Steam, Grill and Grill Mix modes, cabinet, interior and door may be too hot to touch. • Keep aluminum foil used for shielding at least 1 inch (2.54 cm) away from walls, ceiling and door for microwave cooking. • Do not pour cold water on the oven floor after cooking as it might break. • Do not pour cold water on the door as it might break. • Do not touch hot surfaces. • The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries. • The oven should not be left unattended during operation. Oven temperatures that are too high or cooking times that are too long may overheat foods resulting in a fire. • Do not insert fingers or objects in the steam outlets or air vent openings, as this may damage the oven and cause an electric shock or a hazard. • If any objects drop inside the air vent openings, turn off the oven immediately, unplug and consult a Sharp Authorized Servicer. • Do not touch the plug with wet hands when inserting or removing from the outlet. Plug securely into the electric wall receptacle and remove by gripping on the plug end. Never pull using just the cord. 11 SEC AX1100S_en.indd Sec1:11 10.11.16 2:53:00 PM PART NAMES 1 Ventilation openings Be aware that hot steam or air comes out during steam or grill mix cooking, and keep children away from the oven. 2 Door open handle 3 LCD display 4 Control panel 5 Oven lamp 6 Upper position (position 3) 7 Lower position (position 2) 8 Water tank (See page 14.) 9 Door seals and sealing surfaces 10 Latch 11 Oven floor (position 1) 12 Door hinges 13 Steam outlets 14 Drip tray (See page 14.) 15 Oven cavity 16 See through door 17 Grill heating element (at the oven cavity ceiling) 18 Door lever To open, grip the door lever from the bottom and pull it towards you. 18 14 17 13 ACCESSORIES 19 Rack For Grill and Grill Mix.
