WARNING:
Inspect the Oven:
•Check the oven carefully for damage
before and regularly after installation.
•Make sure the door closes properly,
that it is not misaligned or warped.
•Check the hinges and door safety
latches are not broken or loose.
•Ensure the door seal and sealing
surfaces are not damaged.
•Inspect the oven interior and door for
dents.
IMPORTANT:
If any damage is apparent, do not
operate the oven in any way, until it
has been repaired by a SHARP trained
engineer.
1. Remove all packing materials including the
feature sticker (if applicable). Remove all the
blue protective film from the outside of the
oven. Discard the loose polythene sheet from
between the door and cavity.
2.
Attach the cleaning attention label onto the top of the
oven cabinet. For the details, see the label carefully.
3. The oven door will become hot during cooking.
Place oven on a secure, level surface so that the
bottom of the oven is 85cm or more above the
floor. Ensure it is strong enough to take the
oven weight, plus the heaviest item likely to be
cooked in the oven.
4. The minimum height of free
space necessary above the
top surface of the oven is
15cm.
5. Do not place the oven where heat, moisture or
high humidity are generated, (for example,
near or above a conventional oven) or near
combustible materials (for example, curtains).
15 cm
Do not block or obstruct air vent openings.
Do not place objects on top of the oven.
6.
Make sure the power supply cord and plug are
undamaged (See “ELECTRICAL CONNECTION”
opposite). 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.
7. The socket must be readily accessible so that it
can be easily unplugged in an emergency.
8. Do not use the oven outdoors.
9. Never stack two ovens.
BUILDING-IN-KIT.
This oven is not designed to be built into a kitchen
unit.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION.
•Do not allow water to come into contact with the
power supply cord or plug.
•Insert the plug properly into the socket.
•Do not connect other appliances to the same
socket using an adaptor plug.
•If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by a SHARP approved service facility
or a similarly qualified person to avoid a
hazard.
•When removing the plug from the socket always
grip the plug, never the cord as this may
damage the power supply cord and the
connections inside the plug.
•If the plug fitted to your oven is a rewireable
type and in the event of the socket outlet in your
home not being compatible with the plug
supplied, remove the plug properly (do not cut
off).
•If the plug fitted to your oven is a non-rewirable
type and in the event of the socket outlet in your
home not being compatible with the plug
supplied, cut-off the mains plug.
•Refit with a suitable type, observing the wiring
code given in `To replace the mains plug’ on
page 39.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Do not place any items weighing more than 5 kg
on the door to prevent accidents and damage.
•If you are unable to resolve a problem using the
checks covered on the trouble shooting section,
do not attempt to service this microwave oven
yourself. Call a Sharp approved service facility.
Pacemaker: If you have a heart pacemaker,
consult your doctor or the pacemaker manufacturer
prior to oven use.
Oven Use:
•Only use the oven for cooking, defrosting or
reheating of food. This product is not suitable for
any other use. The oven is not suitable for
industrial or laboratory use. SHARP declines any
liability for damages caused by improper use.
•Never operate when empty, except when
conditioning the heaters or preheating as
described in the operation manual.
•Do not leave or store anything inside the oven
when not in use.
•Never attempt to use the oven with the door
open. It is important not to force or tamper with
the door safety latches.
•Never operate the oven with any object caught
in the door.
•Do not insert fingers or objects in the holes of the
door latches or air-vent openings as this may
damage the oven and cause an electric shock.
•If water or food drops inside the air vent
openings switch off the oven immediately, unplug
it and call a SHARP approved service facility.
•Never move the oven while it is operating.
•Accessible parts (e.g. oven door, oven cavity,
dishes and accessories) will become hot when in
use. Care should be taken to avoid touching
these areas when using or cleaning the oven.
To prevent burns, always use thick oven gloves.
FIRE: If smoke is observed, switch off
and unplug the appliance and keep the
door closed in order to stifle any
flames.
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
LIQUIDS: Microwave heating of
beverages can result in delayed eruptive
boiling, therefore care has to be taken
when handling the container. Stir the
liquid prior to and during heating/
reheating, LET LIQUID STAND FOR AT
LEAST 20 SECONDS IN THE OVEN AFTER
COOKING.
IMPORTANT!
•The fuse from the cut-off plug should be removed
and the plug disposed of in a safe manner.
•Under no circumstances should the cut-off plug
be inserted into a socket outlet as a serious
electric shock may occur.
•The plug must not be used without the fuse cover
fitted.
•If you have any doubt about your microwave
oven obtain the help of a qualified electrician.
•When replacing the plug please ensure that you
use a BSI or ASTA approved plug to BS1363,
this should be fitted with a brown coloured 13
amp fuse approved by BSI or ASTA to BS1362.
If you have any doubt about electrical connection
seek the help of a qualified electrician.

BEFORE OPERATION

HOW YOUR OVEN WORKS
Microwaves are energy waves, similar to those
used for TV and radio signals.
Electrical energy is converted into microwave
energy, which is directed into the oven cavity via a
waveguide. To prevent food and grease entering
the wave guide it is protected by the waveguide
cover.
Microwaves cannot pass through metal, because of
this the oven cavity is made of metal and there is a
fine metal mesh on the door.
During cooking the microwaves bounce off the
sides of the oven cavity at random.
Microwaves will pass through certain materials,
such as glass and plastic, to heat the food.
(See “Suitable Cookware” on page 24).
Water, sugar and fat in food absorb microwaves
which cause them to vibrate. This creates heat by
friction, in the same way your hands get warm
when you rub them together.
The outer areas of the food are heated by the microwave
energy, then the heat moves to the centre by conduction,
as it does in conventional cooking. It is important to turn,
rearrange or stir food to ensure even heating.
Once cooking is complete, the oven automatically
stops producing microwaves.
Standing time is necessary after cooking, as it enables
the heat to disperse equally throughout the food.
1. When you first connect the microwave oven to an
electrical socket, the digital display will show
" . " .
2. Heat the oven without food. (See "HEATING
WITHOUT FOOD” on page 9).
NOTE:
• You can input the keys only when the door is closed.
•Oven lamp works whenever the door is
opened.
SETTING THE SOUND
•After the timer reaches zero " .0", the
cooking mode information will remain on the
display for 3 minutes after you open and
close the door. 3 minutes later, the display
will return to " . ".
To clear immediately, press
the STOP/CLEAR key.
• The programme, memory setting or check
mode will be cancelled after 3 minutes
unless a key is pressed.
There are 2 different beep options and silent
mode on your oven.
To select either beep, press the SET key and hold
for 3 seconds, then press the number 1 key for a
long beep, number 2 key for short beeps or press
number 0 key the silent mode.
To keep the desired sound, press the SET key
again.
STOPPING THE OVEN
• If you wish to stop the oven during cooking:
Press the STOP/CLEAR key once, or open the
door.
•If you wish to cancel a programme during
cooking, press the STOP/CLEAR key twice.
•
If you wish to erase a mistake during
programming, press the STOP/CLEAR
key once.
