INTRODUCTION
The manual is divided into two sections:
1. OPERATION (P3~P26)
This section describes your oven and teaches you how to use all the features.
2. COOKING GUIDE
This section is at the back of the manual, it contains the more commonly used information such as how to
prepare food, which cooking utensil to use, standing time.
It also contains recipes for automatic cooking.
Please take some time to read your operation manual carefully, the automatic cooking menus programmed into
your new oven have been carefully developed to give optimum results when the step-by-step instructions are
followed.
When selecting another home appliance, please again consider our full range of Sharp products.
INFO DISPLAY COOKING SYSTEM
Thank you for buying a Sharp Microwave Oven.
Your new oven has an "Information Display System" which offers you step-by-step instructions to easily
guide you through each feature.
Your oven also has a HELP key for instructions on using Auto Start, Information Guide On / Off,
Demonstration Mode, Child Lock, Info on pads and Help.
After gaining experience and confidence using your oven, the information display can be turned off.
We strongly recommend however that you read this operation manual thoroughly before operating your
oven, paying particular attention to the safety warnings and special notes.
3
WARNING
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS : READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
Do not put things on top of the oven or cover the outer cabinet.
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.
d. Look at the oven from time to time when food is heated in disposable containers made of plastic, paper
or other combustible materials for signs of smoke or burning.
e. If materials inside the oven should ignite, or smoke is observed, keep oven door closed, turn oven
off, and disconnect the power plug, or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.
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.
This oven is for home food preparation only and should only be used for heating, cooking and defrosting food
and beverage.
It is not suitable for commercial, laboratory use, or heating therapeutic devices eg. Wheat bags.
Never operate the oven whilst any object is caught or jammed between the door and the oven.
Do not try to adjust or repair the oven yourself.
It is hazardous for anyone other than a qualified service technician trained by SHARP to carry out any service
or repair operation. Especially those which involve the removal of a cover which gives protection against
exposure to microwave energy are very hazardous.
Do not operate the oven if it is not working correctly or damaged until it has been repaired by a qualified service
technician trained by SHARP. It is particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there
is no damage to:
(1) Door (warped), (2) Hinges and Latches (broken or loosened), (3) Door Seals, Sealing Surfaces and oven
cavity (buckled or deformed), (4) Burn marks on the door seal faces.
Do not bump, or catch utensils, loose clothes and your accessories on the door safety latches when removing
food from the oven.
Never poke an object, particularly a metal object, through a grille or between the door and the oven while the
oven is operating.
Never tamper with or deactivate the door safety latches.
Always use oven gloves 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.
Should the power supply cord become damaged, it must be replaced with a special cord supplied by a
SERVICE CENTRE APPROVED BY SHARP. And it must be replaced by a qualified service technician
trained by SHARP in order to avoid a hazard.
If the oven lamp fails please consult your dealer or a qualified service technician trained by SHARP.
Avoid steam burns by directing steam away from the face and hands.
Slowly lift the furthest edge of a dish's cover including microwave plastic wrap etc., and carefully open
popcorn and oven cooking bags away from the face.
Make sure that the power supply cord is undamaged, and that it does not run under the oven or over any hot
surfaces or sharp edges.
Do not store food or any other items inside the oven.
Make sure the utensil does not touch the interior walls during cooking.
Accessible parts (e.g. oven door, oven cavity, dishes and accessories) may become hot during use. To avoid burns
young children should be kept away. Always use thick oven gloves to prevent yourself from getting burnt.
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.
This appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision.
Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
When the appliance is operated in the combination mode (Mix Cooking), Convection Cooking, Grilling or Automatic
Operations, children should only use the oven under adult supervision due to the temperature generated.

* Listen while popping corn for the
popping to slow to 1-2 seconds.
* Transfer baby food to small dish and
heat carefully, stirring often. Check for
suitable temperature to prevent burns.
* Remove the screw cap and teat
before warming baby bottles. After
warming shake thoroughly. Check for
suitable temperature.
* Food with filling should be cut after
heating, to release steam and avoid
burns.
* Use a deep bowl when cooking liquids
or cereals to prevent boiling over.
* For boiling or cooking liquids see
WARNING on page 2 to prevent
explosion and delayed eruptive boiling.
* Remove food from can.
* Cook for the recommended time.
(These foods have high sugar and / or
fat contents.)
* Use a microwave proof roasting rack
to collect drained juices.
* Check the utensils are suitable for
MICROWAVE cooking before you use
them.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1.
Remove all packing materials from the oven cavity, (do not remove the waveguide cover), and the feature sticker
from the outside of the door, if there is one. Check the unit for any damage, such as a misaligned door, damaged door
seals around the door or dents inside the oven cavity or on the door. If there is any damage, please do not operate
the oven until it has been checked by a SERVICE CENTRE APPROVED BY SHARP and repaired, if necessary.
2. Accessories provided
1) Turntable tray
2) Roller stay
3) Low rack
3. Since the door may become hot during cooking, you should place or mount the oven so that the bottom of
the oven is 80 cm or more above floor. You should also keep children away from the door to prevent them
burning themselves.
4. Locate the roller stay in the centre of the oven, then fit the turntable on the roller stay.
Make sure the turntable and roller stay are centrally located and locked together.
NEVER operate the oven without the roller stay and turntable.
5. The oven should not be installed in any area where heat and steam are generated, for example, next to a
conventional oven unit. The oven should be installed so as not to block ventilation openings. When the oven
is mounted on a kitchen benchtop, allow space of at least 40 cm on the top, 5 cm on both sides and at the rear
of the oven for adequate air circulation.
WARNING: The electrical outlet must be readily accessible so that the unit can be unplugged easily in an emergency.
6. Neither the manufacturer nor the distributors can accept any liability for damage to the machine or personal
injury for failure to observe the correct electrical connecting procedure.
The A.C. voltage must be single phase • 230V-240V, 50Hz
7. This appliance must be earthed.
8. Operate the oven from a general purpose domestic outlet.
If a generator is used, do not operate the oven with non-sinusoidal outputs.
9.
To build the oven into a wall or kitchen cabinet, use an appropriate built-in kit. Sharp built-in kit model number
RK-J90W for R-980J/R-990K(W) and RK-J90S for R-990J(S)/R-990K(S) are available which enable the
microwave oven to be integrated within a kitchen, the kit is available from your retailer. This built-in kit has
been tested according to Australian Standards. Sharp does not recommend the use of any other built-in kit.
If the oven is to be positioned near a conventional oven, ensure that adequate space is allowed, and a suitable
heat shield is incorporated between the two to prevent damage to the oven and the built-in kit caused by heat.
10. Before using CONVECTION HEATER ELEMENTS for the first time, operate the oven without food for 20
minutes at 250°C. This will allow the oil that is used for rust protection to be burned off.

Keep the oven clean and remove any food deposits, or it could lead to
deterioration of the surface. This could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.
Exterior:
The outside may be cleaned with mild soap and warm water, wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid the use of harsh
abrasive cleaners. Keep the ventilation openings free of dust.
Door: Wipe the door and window on both sides, the door seals and adjacent parts frequently with a damp cloth to
remove any spills or spatters. Do not use abrasive cleaner.
Touch Control Panel: Wipe the panel with a cloth dampened slightly with water only. Do not scrub or use any sort
of chemical cleaners. Avoid the use of excess water.
Interior walls:
Wipe spatters and spills with a little dish washing liquid on a soft damp cloth. For heavier stains inside the oven cavity
only, use a mild stainless steel cleaner applied with a soft damp cloth. Do not apply to the inside of the door. Wipe clean ensuring all
cleaner is removed.
After use wipe the waveguide cover in the oven with a soft damp cloth to remove any food splashes. Built-up splashes may
overheat and begin to smoke or catch fire. Do not remove the waveguide cover.
DO NOT USE CAUSTIC CLEANERS, ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANSERS OR SCOURING PADS ON YOUR OVEN.
NEVER SPRAY OVEN CLEANERS DIRECTLY ONTO ANY PART OF YOUR OVEN.
DO NOT USE A STEAM CLEANER. Avoid using excess water. After cleaning the oven, ensure any water is remove with a soft cloth.
Note: At regular intervals, heat the oven referring to "Heating without Food" on page 10. Because, the splashed dirt
or food oil remained around oven walls may cause the smoke and odour.
Turntable/Turntable Support/Racks: Wash with mild soapy water and dry thoroughly.
Note: Keep the waveguide cover and accessories clean at all times. If you leave grease or fat in the cavity or
accessories, it may overheat, cause arching, smoke or even catch fire when next using the oven.
SPECIAL NOTE for TURNTABLE SUPPORT:
After cooking, always clean the turntable support, especially around the rollers. These must be free
from food splashes and grease. Built-up splashes or grease may overheat and cause arcing, which
may produce smoke or catch fire.
