IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS : READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning
use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
WARNING: Only allow children to use the oven without supervision when adequate instructions have been given
so that the child is able to use the oven in a safe way and understands the hazards of improper use.
WARNING: If the door or door seals are damaged, the oven must not be operated until it has been repaired by an
authorised SHARP service agent or microwave technician.
WARNING: Never adjust, repair or modify the oven yourself. It is hazardous for anyone other than an authorised
SHARP service agent or microwave technician to carry out any service or repair operation which involves the
removal of a cover which gives protection against exposure to microwave energy.
If the power supply cord of this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced with a special cord.The exchange must
be made by a service centre approved by SHARP.
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.
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, or the eggs may explode. Shell and slice hard boiled eggs before reheating
them in the microwave oven.
Utensils should be checked to ensure that they are suitable for use in the oven. Use only microwave safe containers
and utensils on microwave modes.
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.
When heating food in plastic or paper containers, keep an eye on the oven due to the possibility of ignition.
If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the oven and keep the door closed in order to stifle any flames.
The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food deposits removed.
Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surface that could adversely
affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.
See instructions for cleaning door seals, cavities and adjacent parts on page E-30.
Other warnings
1. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
a. Do not overcook food.
b. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bag in the oven.
c. Do not heat oil or fat for deep frying. The temperature of the oil cannot be controlled.
2. To reduce the risk of an explosion or delayed eruptive boiling when handling the container.
Your microwave oven is capable of heating food and beverages very quickly therefore, it is very important that
you select the appropriate cooking time and power level for the type and quantity of food to be heated. If you
are unsure of the cooking time and power level required, begin with low cooking times and power levels until the
food is sufficiently heated evenly throughout.
Additionally:
a. Do not place sealed containers in the oven. Babies bottles fitted with a screw cap or teat are considered
to be sealed containers.
b. Do not use excessive amount of time.
c. When boiling liquids in the oven, use a wide-mouthed container.
d. Stand at least for 20 seconds at the end of cooking to avoid delayed eruptive boiling of liquids.
e. Stir the liquid before and during cooking. Use extreme care when handling the container or inserting a
spoon or other utensil into the container.

MICROWAVE COOKING TECHNIQUES
Arrange food carefully Place thickest areas toward outside of dish.
Watch cooking time Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and add more time as
needed.
Food severely over-cooked can smoke or ignite.
Cover foods before cooking Check recipe for suggestions: paper towels, microwave plastic wrap or a
lid.
Covers prevent spattering and help foods to cook evenly.
(Helps keep oven clean)
Shield foods Use small pieces of aluminium foil to cover thin areas of meats or poultry in
order to avoid overcooking.
Stir foods From outside to center of dish once or twice during cooking, if possible.
Turn foods Foods such as chicken, hamburgers or steaks should be turned over once
during cooking.
Rearrange foods Like meatballs halfway through cooking both from top to bottom and from
the center of the dish to the outside.
Allow standing time After cooking ensure adequate 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 temperature has been reached.
Doneness signs include:
– Food steams throughout, not just at edge.
– Poultry thigh joints move easily.
– Pork and poultry show no pinkness.
– Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Condensation A normal part of microwave cooking. The humidity and moisture in
food will influence the amount of moisture in the oven. Generally,
covered foods will not cause as much condensation as uncovered
foods. Ensure that the ventilation openings are not blocked.
Browning dish When using a browning dish or self-heating material, always place a heat-
resistant insulator such as a porcelain plate under it to prevent damage to
the turntable, roller stay and coupling due to heat stress. The preheating
time specified in the dish's instructions must not be exceeded.
Microwave safe plastic wrap For cooking food with high fat content, do not bring the wrap in contact with
the food as it may melt.
Microwave safe plastic
cookware
Some microwave safe plastic cookware are not suitable for cooking foods
with high fat and sugar content.

Foods not listed in the Guide can be defrosted manually using Medium Low setting.
NOTE: When freezing mince, shape it into flat even sizes.
For chicken pieces, steaks and chops, freeze separately in single flat layers and if necessary separate into
layers with freezer plastic.
This will ensure even defrosting.
It is also a good idea to label the packs with the correct weights.
If a defrost rack is not available, you can use a shallow dish. The doneness will be changed depending on
the shape of the dish or food. Check the doneness sometimes during defrosting.
