EXPLANATION OF MICROWAVE COOKING
The Sharp Microwave Oven uses microwave energy to Materials with a high moisture content, like most foods,

OPERATION OF AUTO-TOUCHTMCONTROL PANEL ___-----
-. -_ .___ _ ---_._____~---_---~ -.- -
This new Auto-Touch microwave oven uses a microprocessor, the electronic brain that provides the
wide variety of cooking programs which could not be achieved by conventional control methods.
The operation of the oven is controlled by touching the appropriate pads arranged on the surface of
the control panel. The lighted digital readout will display the cooking time, time of day or minute
timer, etc. Indicators show the variable cooking setting or cooking function you have programmed.
An entry signal tone should be heard each time you touch the control panel to make a correct entry.
If you do not hear this sound,
1) You have not used enough pressure in touching the pad,
2) You have made more entries than the control panel will accept,
3) You have made an incorrect entry.
In addition to the entry signal tone, an audible signal will sound for approximately 2 seconds at the
end of the cooking cycle.
* You cannot program the oven if the door is not closed tightly.
* During cooking, the program cannot be changed until CLEAR pad is touched twice. All functions
are locked in to prevent accidental changes.

To Cook at HIGH
Many foods are cooked at HIGH (100%) for best results. The variabie cooking control allows you to
select the rate of microwave cooking, but the oven will automatically operate at HIGH if no variable
cooking control pad is touched. If you wish to cook at HIGH, it is not necessary to touch the HIGH
pad. For other variable cooking control levels, the desired setting must be entered.

Multiple Sequence Cooking (R-9450)
This oven can be programmed for up to 3 automatic cooking sequences, switching from one variable
power setting to another automatically. The oven can also switch from one temperature setting to
another automatically, and it can maintain a specific temperature for up to 99 minutes.
Some of the sequences you might use in cooking include, for example as below.

You are not limited to the above sequences, they are the most practical.
ex. 1) You can program the oven to defrost on MED LOW/DEFROST to cook on HIGH and then
to cook on MED.
ex. 2) The oven can also be programmed to heat to 80°C on MED HIGH (1st temperature and variable
setting) followed by a iower temperature 60°C for 30 minutes). The food would heat to 60°C,
30 minutes would appear in the readout and count down to zero. Microwave power would come
on only if the food cooled below 60°C during this 30-minute period.

TEMPERATURE COOKING (R-9450 ONLY)
This oven is equipped with a removable temperature probe which is plugged into the receptacle in the
top centre of the oven cavity when cooking by temperature. Directions for correct use of the tempera-
ture probe are as follows.
To Use the SHARP Temperature Probe
1 Insert the pointed metal probe portion of the temperature probe
into the food. It is easier to position the probe correctly if this
is done while the food is outside the oven. Be sure to insert the
probe at least 2/3 length of probe portion into the food.
For casseroles, place the probe in the centre of the food. When Temperature Probe
cooking meats, insert in the centre and fleshy portion, away
from bone or fatty sections, For poultry, insert between the
inner thigh and body of the bird.
2. Place the food on the Carousel turntable inside the oven.

Plug ,/f
A I/
Handle ,-I
’ ,’
,(’
3. Insert the plug into the receptacle in the top centre of the oven
cavity (ceiling of oven). Be sure the probe is securely inserted.
This portion rotates as the food turns on the Carousel.
4. Shorten or lengthen the cord loop by moving the adjusting ring.
Avoid placing the rubber cord directly on or in the food. By
using the adjusting ring it is easy to place the probe at the
desired angle.
5. Program oven for cooking by temperature as explained on pages
14 and 15 or use sensor temp setting.
6. When the food reaches the programmed temperature, the oven
will turn off automatically. The time of day will reappear on
the display, If you wish to check the temperature during the
standing time, leave the food in the oven with the probe in
place. You can monitor any changes in temperature by simply
touching TEMP pad,

7. Unplug the probe plug from the receptacle before removing the
food from the oven.
/
1 Use and Care of Temperature Probe :
1. Do not operate the oven empty with the temperature probe inside. To avoid this possibility, do not
leave the probe in the oven when not in use.
2. The temperature probe should be unplugged and removed from the oven when not in use. Store
the probe in a safe, convenient place outside the oven.
3. Carefully wash the temperature probe in warm sudsy water and wipe dry. It is immersible, but
should not be soaked. Do not wash in dishwasher.
4. Insert the thermometer portion of the probe at least 2/3 length of probe portion into the food.
5. The temperature probe should never be allowed to touch the interior walls or door of the oven.
6. DO not use the temperature probe when using a browning dish.
7. The Sharp temperature probe is designed specifically for use in this Sharp Carousel microwave
oven. Do not substitute any other probe for this one. The probe cannot be used in conventional
cooking or in other microwave ovens.
13

EE
- 8. Avoid harsh treatment of the probe. Do not drop the probe.
9. Pot holders may be needed when removing the temperature probe.
10. Do not remove the probe from the receptacle or from the food by pulling on the cord. Use the
insulated handles.
11. Do not try to force the temperature probe into solidly frozen food.
12. Temperature readings are given for some recipes which should be cooked covered. If you wish to
use the probe, cover the food with clear plastic wrap and insert the probe through the plastic wrap.
13. You will often notice a change in the temperature readout after stirring. This is normal and occurs
in conventional cooking also.
14. Recommended cooking temperatures are given on meat and poultry roasting chart and some recipes
in your Sharp Carousel microwave cookbook. YOU may choose to cook by either time or tempera-
ture.
To Cook by Temperature 1
The internal temperature of the food will be displayed in the range of 30°C to 112°C. The temperature
for cooking which can be entered is between 30°C and 93°C. lf a temperature settingabove 93°C or
under 30°C is entered, [m]and incorrect temperature will appear on the display repeatedly. The
CLEAR pad must be touched in order to reprogram the oven.
The display will show 1 LG [] until the temperature reaches 30°C. This indicates that the temper-
ature is below 30°C.
* Suppose you want to roast whole chicken to 85°C on MED HIGH.

When the internal temperature reaches 3O”C, the readout will display the actual temperature of
the food as it increases to 85°C. When it reaches 85°C as detected by the temperature probe, the
oven will automatically shut off and the end of cooking signal will sound. All indicator lights will
go out. The time of day will reappear on the display.
NOTE: If you are in the process of cooking using the temperature probe and wish to check the
temperature you have programmed, simply touch the TEMP pad. As long as your finger is
touching the TEMP pad, the final temperature will be displayed.

To Monitor Temperature ;
If the temperature probe is plugged into the receptacle in the top centre of the oven cavity and the
probe is placed in water or food, the temperature of the water or food can be monitored on the
readout.

To Cook by Temperature Followed by Time
This oven can be programmed to maintain any temperature from 30°C to 93°C for up to 99 minutes,
similar to the automatic thermostat on an electric skillet or on a conventional range. This feature can
be used to keep food warm at the desired serving temperature until ready to eat, or food can be
simmered at a specific temperature for up to 99 minutes.
* Suppose you want to heat a spaghetti sauce to 80°C on MED HIGH and then maintain exactly

NOTE. In the above example, if the actual temperature drops below 90°C during the 60 minutes
“holding” time, microwave energy will come on long enough to boost the temperature back
up to 80°C. The HIGH indicator will light momentarily while the microwave energy is on.
The programmed temperature can be checked during cooking or during the “holding” time
by touching the TEMP pad. AS soon as your finger is removed from the TEMP pad, the
