IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To avoid the danger of fire
The microwave oven should not be left
unattended during operation. Power levels
that are too high or cooking times that are
too long may overheat foods resulting in a
fire.
This oven is not designed to be built in to a kitchen unit.
The electrical outlet must be readily accessible so that the
unit can be unplugged easily in an emergency.
The AC power supply must be 230V, 50Hz, with a
minimum 16 A distribution line fuse, or a minimum 16 A
distribution circuit breaker.
It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only
this appliance be provided.
Do not place the oven in areas where heat is
generated. For example, close to a conventional oven.
Do not install the oven in an area of high humidity or
where moisture may collect.
Do not store or use the oven outdoors.
If food being heated begins to smoke, DO
NOT OPEN THE DOOR. Turn off and unplug
the oven and wait until the food has
stopped smoking. Opening the door while
food is smoking may cause a fire.
Use only microwave-safe containers and
utensils. See Page 9.
Do not leave the oven unattended when
using disposable plastic, paper or other
combustible food containers.
Clean the waveguide cover, the oven
cavity, the turntable and roller stay after
use. These must be dry and free from
grease. Built-up grease may overheat and
begin to smoke or catch fire.
Do not place flammable materials near the oven or
ventilation openings. Do not block the ventilation
openings.
Remove all metallic seals, wire twists, etc., from food
and food packages. Arcing on metallic surfaces may
cause a fire.
Do not use the microwave oven to heat oil for deep
frying. The temperature cannot be controlled and the
oil may catch fire.
To make popcorn, use only special microwave
popcorn makers.
Do not store food or any other items inside the oven.
Check the settings after you start the oven to ensure
the oven is operating as desired.
See the corresponding hints in this operation manual and
the cookery book section.
To avoid the possibility of injury
WARNING:
Do not operate the oven if it is damaged or
malfunctioning. Check the following before use:
a) The door; make sure the door closes properly and ensure
it is not misaligned or warped.
b) The hinges and safety door latches; check to make sure
they are not broken or loose.
c) The door seals and sealing surfaces; ensure that they have
not been damaged.
d) Inside the oven cavity or on the door; make sure there are
no dents.
e) The power supply cord and plug; ensure that they are not
damaged.
Never adjust , repair or modify the oven
yourself. It is hazardous for anyone other
than a competent person to carry out any
service or repair operation which involves
the removal of a cover which gives
protection against exposure to microwave
energy.
Do not operate the oven with the door open or alter
the door safety latches in any way.
Do not operate the oven if there is an object between
the door seals and sealing surfaces.
Do not allow grease or dirt to build up on
the door seals and adjacent parts. Follow
instructions for “Care and Cleaning”, Page 8.
Individuals with PACEMAKERS should check with their
doctor or the manufacturer of the pacemaker for
precautions regarding microwave ovens.
To avoid the possibility of electric shock
Under no circumstances should you remove the outer
cabinet.
Never spill or insert any objects into the door lock
openings or ventilation openings. In the event of a
spill, turn off and unplug the oven immediately, and
call an authorised SHARP service agent.
Do not immerse the power supply cord or plug in
water or any other liquid.
Do not let the power supply cord hang over the edge
of a table or work surface.
Keep the power supply cord away from heated
surfaces, including the rear of the oven.
Do not attempt to replace the oven lamp yourself or
allow anyone who is not an electrician authorised by

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ENGLISH
Do not touch the oven door, outer cabinet, rear
cabinet, oven cavity, ventilation openings, accessories
and dishes during GRILL or GRILL+MICROWAVE
MIX mode operation as they will become hot. Before
cleaning make sure they are not hot.
To avoid misuse by children
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.
Do not lean or swing on the oven door. Do not play
with the oven or use it as a toy.
Children should be taught all important safety
instructions: use of pot holders, careful removal of
food coverings; paying special attention to packaging
(e.g. self-heating materials) designed to make food
crisp, as they may be extra hot.
Other warnings
Never modify the oven in any way.
Do not move the oven while it is in operation.
This oven is for home food preparation only and may
only be used for cooking food. It is not suitable for
commercial or laboratory use.
To promote trouble-free use of your oven
and avoid damage.
Never operate the oven when it is empty except
where recommended in the operation manual, see
Page 6. Doing so may damage the oven.
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 and roller stay due to heat stress. The
preheating time specified in the dish’s instructions
must not be exceeded.
Do not use metal utensils, which reflect microwaves
and may cause electrical arcing. Do not put cans in
the oven.
Use only the turntable and the roller stay designed for
this oven.
To prevent the turntable from breaking:
(a) Before cleaning the turntable with water, leave the
turntable to cool.
(b) Do not put hot foods or hot utensils on a cold
turntable.
(c) Do not put cold foods or cold utensils on a hot
turntable.
Do not place anything on the outer cabinet during
operation.
Do not use plastic containers for microwaving if the
oven is still hot from using the GRILL or
GRILL+MICROWAVE MIX mode operation, because
they may melt. Plastic containers must not be used
during above modes unless the container manufacturer
says they are suitable.
To avoid the possibility of explosion and
sudden boiling:
WARNING: Liquids and other foods must
not be heated in sealed containers since
they are liable to explode.
Never use sealed containers. Remove seals and lids
before use. Sealed containers can explode due to a
build up of pressure even after the oven has been
turned off.
Take care when microwaving liquids. Use a wide-
mouthed container to allow bubbles to escape.
Microwave heating of beverages can result
in delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care
has to be taken when handling the
container.
To prevent sudden eruption of boiling liquid and
possible scalding:
1. Stir liquid prior to heating/reheating.
2. It is advisable to insert a glass rod or similar utensil
into the liquid whilst reheating.
3. Let liquid stand in the oven at the end of cooking time
to prevent delayed eruptive boiling.
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.
Pierce the skin of such foods as potatoes, sausages
and fruit before cooking, or they may explode.
To avoid the possibility of burns
Use pot holders or oven gloves when removing food
from the oven to prevent burns.
Always open containers, popcorn makers, oven cooking
bags, etc., away from the face and hands to avoid
steam burns.
To avoid burns, always test food
temperature and stir before serving and
pay special attention to the temperature of
food and drink given to babies, children or
the elderly.
Temperature of the container is not a true indication of
the temperature of the food or drink; always check the
food temperature.
Always stand back from the oven door when opening to
avoid burns from escaping steam and heat.
Slice stuffed baked foods after heating to release
steam and avoid burns.
Keep children away from the door to prevent them
burning themselves.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLATION
The door may become hot during
cooking, place or mount the oven so that
the bottom of the oven is 85cm or more
above the floor.
4. Do not allow the power supply cord to
run over any hot or sharp surfaces,
such as the hot air vent area at the top
rear of the oven.
5. Ensure there is a minimum
free space above the oven
of 21 cm.
6. Make sure the TIMER knob is set in the “0” (off)
position.
7. Securely connect the plug of the oven to a
standard earthed (grounded) household electrical
outlet.
You may detect smoke or a burning smell when using the grill for the first time, this is normal and not a
sign that the oven is out of order.
To avoid this problem, when first using the oven operate the grill without food for 20 minutes. Refer to
page 7 on how to operate the grill. The turntable must be kept in the oven.
IMPORTANT: During grill or dual operation, to allow smoke or smells to disperse, open a window or
switch the kitchen ventilation on. Make sure there is no food in the oven.
21cm
HEATING WITHOUT FOOD
1. Remove all packing materials from the inside of the
oven cavity. Discard the loose polythene sheet from
between the door and cavity. Remove the feature
sticker, if attached, from the outside of the oven door.
Do not remove the protective film attached to the
inside of the door
2. Check the oven carefully for any signs of damage.
3. Place the oven on a flat, level surface strong
enough to support the oven’s weight plus the
heaviest item likely to be cooked.
✓✗
Water vapour or drops may occasionally form on the
oven walls or around the door seals and sealing
surfaces. This is a normal occurrence and is not an
indication of microwave leakage or a malfunction.
NOTE:
If you are unsure how to connect your oven, please
consult an authorised, qualified electrician.
Neither the manufacturer nor the dealer can accept
any liability for damage to the oven or personal injury
resulting from failure to observe the correct electrical
connection procedure.
Your oven has 3 power levels. To choose the power
level for cooking, follow the advice given in the
recipe section. Generally the following
recommendations apply:
800 W - used for fast cooking or reheating e.g.
soup, casseroles, canned food, hot beverages,
vegetables, fish, etc.
W=WATT
400 W - for dense foods which require a long
cooking time when cooked conventionally, eg. beef
dishes, it is advisable to use this power setting to
ensure the meat will be tender.
240 W Defrost setting - to defrost, select this power
setting, to ensure that the dish defrosts evenly. This setting
is also ideal for simmering rice, pasta, dumplings and
cooking egg custard.

CAUTION: DO NOT USE COMMERCIAL OVEN
CLEANERS, ABRASIVE, HARSH CLEANERS OR
SCOURING PADS ON ANY PART OF YOUR
MICROWAVE OVEN.
Oven exterior
The outside of your oven can be cleaned easily with
mild soap and water. Make sure the soap is wiped off
with a moist cloth, and dry the exterior with a soft
towel.
Oven controls
Open the door before cleaning to de-activate the oven
controls. Care should be taken when cleaning the
oven controls. Using a cloth dampened with water
only, gently wipe the panel until it becomes clean.
Avoid using excessive amounts of water. Do not use
any sort of chemical or abrasive cleaner.
CAUTION:
Take care not to move the TIMER knob from “0” (off)
position during cleaning, or the oven will start as soon
as you close the door.
Oven Interior
1. For cleaning, wipe any splatters or spills with a soft
damp cloth or sponge after each use while the
oven is still warm. For heavier spills, use a mild
soap and wipe several times with a damp cloth
until all residues are removed. Do not remove the
waveguide cover.
2. Make sure that mild soap or water does not
penetrate the small vents in the walls which may
cause damage to the oven.
3. Do not use spray type cleaners on the oven
interior.
4. At regular intervals, heat the grill, see page 6 and 7,
because the splashed dirt or oil around the grill
heating element and oven walls may cause smoke
and odour.

ENGLISH
WHAT ARE MICROWAVES?
SUITABLE OVENWARE
Microwaves are generated in the microwave oven
by a magnetron and cause the water molecules in
the food to oscillate.
Heat is generated by the friction which is caused,
with the result that the food is thawed, heated or
cooked.
GLASS AND CERAMIC GLASS
Heat-resistant glass utensils are very
suitable. The cooking process can be
observed from all sides. They must
not, however, contain any metal (e.g.
lead crystal), nor have a metallic overlay (e.g. gold
edge, cobalt blue finish).
CERAMICS
Generally very suitable. Ceramics must be glazed,
since with unglazed ceramics moisture can get into
the ceramic. Moisture causes the material to heat up
and may make it shatter. If you are not certain
whether your utensil is suitable for the microwave,
carry out the utensil suitability test.
PORCELAIN
Very suitable. Ensure that the porcelain does not have
a gold or silver overlay and that it does not contain
any metal.
PLASTIC AND PAPER UTENSILS
Heat resistant plastic utensils which are suitable for use
in the microwave can be used to thaw, heat and cook
food. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations.
Heat-resistant paper made for use in a microwave
oven is also suitable. Follow the manufacturer's
recommendations.
MICROWAVE FOIL
This, or heat-resistant foil, is very suitable for covering
or wrapping. Please follow the manufacturer's
recommendations.
ROASTING BAGS
Can be used in a microwave oven. Metal clips are
not suitable for fastening them since the roasting bag
foil might melt. Fasten the roasting bag with string and
pierce it several times with a fork. Non heat-resistant
food wraps are not recommended for use in a
microwave oven.
BROWNING DISH
A special microwave dish made from ceramic glass with
a metal alloy base, which allows food to be browned.
When using the browning dish a suitable insulator,
e.g. a porcelain plate, must be placed between the
turntable and the browning dish. Be careful to adhere
exactly to the pre-heating time given in the
manufacturer's instructions. Excessive pre-heating can
damage the turntable and the turntable stand or can
trigger the safety-device which will switch off the oven.
METAL
Generally speaking, metal should not be used, since
microwaves do not pass through metal and therefore
cannot reach the food. There are, however, exceptions:
small strips of aluminium foil may be used to cover
certain parts of the food, so that these do not thaw too
quickly or begin to cook (e.g. chicken wings).Small
metal skewers and aluminium containers (e.g. of ready-
cooked meals) can be used. They must, however, be
small in relation to the food, e.g. aluminium containers
must be at least 2/3to 3/4filled with food. It is
recommended that you transfer the food into a dish
suitable for use in the microwave. When using
aluminium containers or other metal utensils there must
be a gap of approx. 2 cms between them and the
walls of the cooking area, otherwise the walls could be
damaged by possible arcing.
NO UTENSIL SHOULD HAVE A METAL
OVERLAY metal parts such as screws, bands or handles.
UTENSIL SUITABILITY TEST
If you are not sure whether your utensil
is suitable for use in your microwave
oven, carry out the following test:
Place the utensil into the oven. Place
a glass container filled with 150 ml of water on or
next to the utensil. Switch on the oven at 800 W
power for 1 to 2 minutes. If the utensil stays cool or
just warm to the touch, it is suitable. Do not use this
test on a plastic utensil. It could melt.

TIPS AND ADVICE
TIME SETTINGS
In general the thawing, heating and cooking times are
significantly shorter than when using a conventional
oven. For this reason you should adhere to the
recommended times given in this cookery book. It is
better to set the times too short, rather than too long. Test
the food after it has been cooked. It is better to have to
cook something for a little longer than to overcook it.
INITIAL TEMPERATURES
Thawing, heating and cooking times are dependent
upon the initial temperature of the food. Deep-frozen
food and food stored in a refrigerator, for example,
requires longer than food which has been stored at
room temperature. For heating and cooking, normal
storage temperatures are assumed (refrigerator
temperature approx. 5° C, room temperature approx.
20° C). For thawing the temperature of the deep
freeze is assumed to be -18° C.
COOKING TIMES
All the times given in this cookery book are
guidelines, which can be varied according to the
initial temperature, weight and condition of the
food (water or fat content etc.).
SALT, SPICES AND HERBS
Food cooked in your microwave retains its individual
flavour better than it does when conventional
preparation methods are used. For this reason you
should use salt sparingly and normally add it only after
cooking. Salt absorbs liquid and dries out the outer
layer of food. Herbs and spices can be used as normal.
ADDITION OF WATER
Vegetables and other foods with a high water
content can be cooked in their own juice or with
the addition of a little water. This ensures that many
vitamins and minerals are preserved.
FOOD IN SKINS OR SHELLS
Foods such as sausages, chickens, chicken legs,
baked potatoes, tomatoes, apples, egg yolks or such
like should be pricked or pierced with a fork or small
wooden skewer. This will enable the steam which
forms to dissipate without splitting the skin or shell.
FATTY FOODS
Fatty meat and layers of fat cook better than lean
portions of meat. Before cooking, cover the fatty
portions with a piece of aluminium foil or place the
food with the fat side down.
LARGE AND SMALL QUANTITIES
Microwave times are directly dependent upon the
amount of food which you would like to thaw, heat
or cook. This means that small portions cook more
quickly than larger ones. As a rule of thumb:
TWICE THE AMOUNT = ALMOST TWICE THE TIME
HALF THE AMOUNT = HALF THE TIME
DEEP AND SHALLOW CONTAINERS
Both containers have the same capacity, but the
cooking time is longer for the deeper one. You
should therefore choose as flat a container as
possible with a large surface area. Only use deep
containers for dishes where there is a danger of
overcooking, e.g. for noodles, rice, milk etc..
ROUND AND OVAL CONTAINERS
Food cooks more evenly in round or oval
containers than in containers with corners, since
the microwave energy concentrates in the corners
and the food in these areas could become
overcooked.
COVERING
Covering the food retains the moisture within it and
shortens the cooking time. Use a lid, microwave
foil or a cover. Foods which are to be crispy, e.g.
roasts or chickens, should not be covered. As a
general rule, whatever would be covered in a
conventional oven should also be covered in a
microwave oven. Whatever would be uncovered
in an ordinary oven can also be left uncovered in
a microwave oven.
IRREGULAR SHAPED FOOD
Place the thicker, more compacted end of the food
pointing towards the outside. Place vegetables
(such as broccoli) with the stalks pointing outward.
STIRRING
Stirring the food is necessary, since the
microwaves begin by heating the outer areas. The
temperature is thereby equalised and the food
heats up evenly.
ARRANGEMENT OF FOOD
Place a number of individual portions, such as
small pudding moulds, cups or potatoes in their
jackets, in a circle on the turntable. Keep the
portions at a distance from each other so that
the microwave energy can reach the food from
all sides.

ENGLISH
TIPS AND ADVICE
TURNING
Medium-sized items, such as hamburgers and
steaks, should be turned over once during cooking,
in order to shorten the cooking process. Large
items, such as roasts and chickens, must be turned,
since the upper side receives more microwave
energy and could dry out if not turned.
STANDING TIME
Keeping to the standing time is one of the most
important rules with microwaves. Almost all foods,
which are thawed, heated or cooked in the
microwave, require a certain amount of time to stand,
during which temperature equalisation takes place
and the moisture in the food is evenly distributed.
BROWNING AGENTS
After more than 15 minutes' cooking time food acquires
a brownness, although this is not comparable to the
deep brownness and crispness obtained through
conventional cooking. In order to obtain an appetising
brown colour you can use browning agents. For the
most part they simultaneously act as seasoning agents.
In the following table you will find some suggestions
for substances you might use for browning and some
of the uses to which you might put them.
BROWNING AGENT
Melted butter and dried paprika
Dried paprika
Soya sauce
Barbecue and Worcestershire sauce, Gravy

DISH METHOD
HEATING
●Ready-prepared meals in aluminium containers
should be removed from the aluminium
container and heated on a plate or in a dish.
●Remove the lids from firmly closed containers.
●Food should be covered with microwave foil, a
plate or cover (obtainable from stores), so that
the surface does not dry out. Drinks need not be
covered.
●When boiling liquids such as water, coffee, tea
or milk, place a glass stirrer in the container.
●If possible, stir large quantities from time to time,
to ensure that the temperature is evenly
distributed.
●The times are for food at a room temperature of
20° C. The heating time for food stored in a
refrigerator should be increased slightly.
●After heating allow the food to stand for 1-2
minutes, so that the temperature inside the food
can be evenly distributed (standing time).
●The times given are guidelines which can be
varied according to the initial temperature,
weight, water content, fat content or the result
which you wish to achieve.
DEFROSTING
Your microwave is ideal for thawing. Thawing times
are usually considerably shorter than in traditional
methods. Here are a few tips. Take the frozen item out
of its packaging and place on a plate for thawing.
Boxes and Containers
Boxes and containers suitable for microwaves are
particularly good for thawing and heating food, since
they can withstand temperatures in a deep freeze
(down to approx. –40° C) as well as being heat-
resistant (up to approx. 220° C). You can therefore use
the same container to freeze, thaw, heat and even
cook the food, without having to transfer it.
Covering
Cover thin parts with small strips of aluminium foil before
thawing. Thawed or warm parts should likewise be covered
with aluminium strips during thawing. This stops the thin parts
becoming too hot while thicker parts are still frozen.
Correct setting
It is better to choose a setting which is too low rather
than one which is too high. By so doing you will
ensure that the food thaws evenly. If the microwave
setting is too high, the surface of the food will already
have begun to cook while the inside is still frozen.

12
TIPS AND ADVICE
Tur ning/stirring
Almost all foods have to be turned or stirred from time
to time. As early as possible, separate parts which are
stuck together and rearrange them.
Small amounts
Thaw more quickly and evenly than larger ones. We
recommend that you freeze portions which are as
small as possible. By so doing you will be able to
prepare whole menus quickly and easily.
Foods requiring careful handling
Foods such as gateaux, cream, cheese and bread
should only be partially thawed and then left to thaw
completely at room temperature. By so doing you will
avoid the outer areas becoming too hot while the
inside is still frozen.
Standing time
This is particularly important after thawing food, as the
thawing process continues during this period. In the
thawing table you will find the standing times for
various foods. Thick, dense foods require a longer
standing time than thinner foods or food of a porous
nature. If the food has not thawed sufficiently, you may
continue thawing it in the microwave oven or lengthen
the standing time accordingly. At the end of the
standing time you should process the food as soon as
possible and not re-freeze it.
COOKING FRESH VEGETABLES
●When buying vegetables try to ensure that, as far
as possible, they are of similar size. This is
particularly important when you want to cook the
vegetables whole (e.g. boiled potatoes).
●Wash the vegetables before preparing them, clean
them and only then weigh the required quantity for
the recipe and chop them up.
●Season them as you would normally, but as a rule
only add salt after cooking.
●Add about 5 tbsps of water for 500 g of
vegetables. Vegetables which are high in fibre
require a little more water. You will find information
about this in the table.
●Vegetables are usually cooked in a dish with a lid.
Those with a high moisture content, e.g. onions or
boiled potatoes, can be cooked in microwave foil
without adding water.
●After half the cooking time has elapsed vegetables
should be stirred or turned over.
●After cooking allow the vegetables to stand for
approx. 2 minutes, so that the temperature
disperses evenly (standing time).
●The cooking times given are guidelines and depend
upon the weight, initial temperature and condition
of the type of vegetable in question. The fresher the
vegetables, the shorter the cooking times.
COOKING MEAT, FISH AND POULTRY
●When buying food items, try to ensure that, as far
as possible, they are of similar size. This will ensure
that they are cooked properly.
●Before preparation wash meat, fish and poultry
thoroughly under cold running water and pat them
dry with kitchen paper. Then continue as normal.
●Beef should be well hung and have little gristle.
●Even though the pieces may be of a similar size,
cooking results may vary. This is due, amongst
other things, to the kind of food, variations in the fat
and moisture content as well as the temperature
before cooking.
●For microwave cooking, use a
microwave proof roasting rack to
collect drained juices.
●After the food has been cooking for 15 minutes it
acquires a natural brownness, which may be
enhanced by the use of a browning agent. If, in
addition, you would like the surface to be crisp you
should either use the browning dish or sear the food
on your cooker and finish cooking it in your
microwave. By doing this you will simultaneously
obtain a brown base for making a sauce.
●Turn large pieces of meat, fish or poultry half way
through the cooking time, so that they are cooked
evenly from all sides.
●After cooking cover roasts with aluminium foil and
allow them to stand for approx. 10 minutes (standing
time). During this period the roast carries on cooking
and the liquid is evenly distributed, so that when it is
carved a minimum amount of juice is lost.
DEFROSTING AND COOKING
Deep-frozen dishes can be thawed and cooked at the
same time in one process in your microwave. You will
find some examples in the table. Do take note,
however, of the general advice given on "heating" and
"thawing" food. Please refer to the manufacturer's
instructions on the packaging when preparing deep-
frozen dishes. These usually contain precise cooking
times and offer advice on preparation.
