INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW
ABOUT YOUR OVEN
This Operation Manual is valuable: read it carefully
and always save it for reference.
NEVER use the oven without the turntable and support
nor turn the turntable over so that a large dish could
be placed in the oven. The turntable will turn both
clockwise and counterclockwise.
ALWAYS have food in the oven when it is on to absorb
the microwave energy.
When using the oven at power levels below 100%, you
may hear the magnetron cycling on and off. It is normal
for the exterior of the oven to be warm to the touch
when cooking or reheating.
Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking.
Roomhumidityandthemoistureinfoodwillinuence
the amount of moisture that condenses in the oven.
Generally, covered foods will not cause as much con-
densation as uncovered ones. Vents on the oven back
must not be blocked.
The oven is for food preparation only. It should not be
used to dry clothes or newspapers.
All ovens are rated 1100 watts by using the IEC Test
Procedure. In using recipes or package directions,
check food a minute or two before the minimum time
and add time accordingly.
ABOUT FOOD
FOOD DO DON'T
Eggs, sausages,
nuts, seeds, fruits
& vegetables
• Puncture egg yolks before cooking to
prevent “explosion”.
• Pierce skins of potatoes, apples, squash,
hot dogs and sausages so that steam
escapes.
• Cook eggs in shells.
• Reheat whole eggs.
• Dry nuts or seeds in shells.
Popcorn • Use specially bagged popcorn for the
microwave oven.
• Listen while popping corn for the popping
to slow to 1 or 2 seconds or use special
POPCORN pad.
• Pop popcorn in regular brown bags
or glass bowls.
• Exceed maximum time on popcorn
package.
Baby food • Transfer baby food to small dish and heat
carefully, stirring often. Check temperature
before serving.
• Put nipples on bottles after heating and
shake thoroughly. “Wrist” test before
feeding.
• Heat disposable bottles.
• Heat bottles with nipples on.
• Heat baby food in original jars.
General • Cutbakedgoodswithllingafterheating
to release steam and avoid burns.
• Stir liquids briskly before and after heating
to avoid “eruption”.
• Use deep bowl, when cooking liquids or
cereals, to prevent boilovers.
• Heat or cook in closed glass jars or
air tight containers.
• Can in the microwave as harmful
bacteria may not be destroyed.
• Deep fat fry.
• Dry wood, gourds, herbs or wet
papers.
13
ABOUT UTENSILS AND COVERINGS
The following coverings are ideal:
• Paper towels are good for covering foods for
reheating and absorbing fat while cooking bacon.
• Wax paper can be used for cooking and
reheating.
• Plastic wrap that is specially marked for micro-
wave use can be used for cooking and reheating.
DO NOT allow plastic wrap to touch food. Vent
so steam can escape.
• Lids that are microwave-safe are a good choice
because heat is kept near the food to hasten
cooking.
• Oven cooking bags are good for large meats or
foods that need tenderizing. DO NOT use metal
twist ties. Remember to slit bag so steam can
escape.
How to use aluminum foil in your microwave
oven:
• Smallatpiecesofaluminumfoilplacedsmooth-
ly on the food can be used to shield areas that
are either defrosting or cooking too quickly.
• Foil should not come closer than one inch to any
surface of the oven.
Should you have questions about utensils or coverings,
check a good microwave cookbook or follow recipe
suggestions.
ACCESSORIES There are many microwave accesso-
ries available for purchase. Evaluate carefully before
you purchase so that they meet your needs. A micro-
wave-safe thermometer will assist you in determining
correct doneness and assure you that foods have been
cooked to safe temperatures. Sharp is not responsible
for any damage to the oven when accessories are used.
Children should be taught all safety precautions: use
potholders, remove coverings carefully, pay special
attention to packages that crisp food because they
may be extra hot.
Don’tassumethatbecauseachildhasmasteredone
cooking skill he/she can cook everything.
Children need to learn that the microwave oven is not
a toy. See page 25 for Child Lock feature.
It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many
pieces already in your kitchen can be used successfully
in your new microwave oven. Make sure the utensil
does not touch the interior walls during cooking.
Use these utensils for safe microwave cooking
and reheating:
• glass ceramic (Pyroceram
®
), such as
Corningware
®
.
• heat-resistant glass (Pyrex
®
)
• microwave-safe plastics
• paper plates
• microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and
porcelain
• browning dish (Do not exceed recommended
preheating time. Follow manufacturer's
directions.)
These items can be used for short time reheat-
ing of foods that have little fat or sugar in them:
• wood, straw, wicker
DO NOT USE
• metal pans and bakeware
• dishes with metallic trim
• non-heat-resistant glass
• non-microwave-safe plastics (margarine tubs)
• recycled paper products
• brown paper bags
• food storage bags
• metal twist-ties
Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwav-
ing, place the empty dish in the oven and microwave
on HIGH for 30 seconds. A dish which becomes very
hot should not be used.
ABOUT CHILDREN AND THE MICROWAVE
Children below the age of 7 should use the microwave
oven with a supervising person very near to them.
Between the ages of 7 and 12, the supervising person
should be in the same room.
The child must be able to reach the oven comfortably;
if not, he/she should stand on a sturdy stool.
At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or swing
on the oven door.
INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW
14
ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING
• Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards
outside of dish.
• Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount
of time indicated and add more as needed. Food
severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.
• Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or cook-
book for suggestions: paper towels, wax paper,
microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Covers prevent
spattering and help foods to cook evenly.
• Shield with small at pieces of aluminum foil any
thin areas of meat or poultry to prevent overcooking
before dense, thick areas are cooked thoroughly.
• Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice
during cooking, if possible.
• Turn foods over once during microwaving to
speed cooking of such foods as chicken and ham-
burgers. Large items like roasts must be turned over
at least once.
• Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway
through cooking both from top to bottom and from
the center of the dish to the outside.
• Add standing time. Remove food from oven and
stir, if possible. Cover for standing time which allows
thefoodtonishcookingwithoutovercooking.
• Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that
cooking temperatures have been reached.
Doneness signs include:
- Food steams throughout, not just at edge.
- Center bottom of dish is very hot to the touch.
- Poultry thigh joints move easily.
- Meat and poultry show no pinkness.
- Fishisopaqueandakeseasilywithafork.
• Check foods to see that they are cooked to the
United States Department of Agriculture's recom-
mended temperatures.
To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer in a
thick or dense area away from fat or bone. NEVER leave
the thermometer in the food during cooking, unless it is
approved for microwave oven use.
• ALWAYS use potholders 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.
• Avoid steam burns by directing steam away from
the face and hands. Slowly lift the farthest edge of
a dish's covering and carefully open popcorn and
oven cooking bags away from the face.
• Stay near the oven while it's in use and check
cooking progress frequently so that there is no
chance of overcooking food.
• NEVER use the cavity for storing cookbooks or
other items.
• Select, store and handle food carefully to pre-
serve its high quality and minimize the spread of
foodborne bacteria.
• Keep waveguide cover clean. Food residue can
causearcingand/orres.
•
Use care when removing items from the oven so
that the utensil, your clothes or accessories do not
touch the safety door latches.

MANUAL DEFROST
If the food that you wish to defrost is not listed on
the DEFROST CENTER CHART or is above or below
the limits in the “Amount” column on the DEFROST
CENTER CHART (see page 22), you need to defrost
manually.
You can defrost any frozen food, either raw or previously
cooked, by using Power Level for 30%. Follow the exact
4-step procedure found under TO SET POWER LEVEL.
Estimate defrosting time and press POWER LEVEL pad
eight times for 30% power.
For either raw or previously cooked frozen food the
rule of thumb is approximately 4 minutes per pound.
For example, defrost 4 minutes for 1 pound of frozen
spaghetti sauce.
Always stop the oven periodically to remove or separate
the portions that are defrosted. If food is not de-
frosted at the end of the estimated defrosting time,
program the oven in 1 minute increments on Power
Level 30% until totally defrosted.
When using plastic containers from the freezer, defrost
only long enough to remove from the plastic in
order to place in a microwave-safe dish.
• Suppose you want to defrost for 5 minutes at 30%.

SPECIAL FEATURES
SENSOR COOK
Sharp's Sensor is a semi-conductor device that detects
the vapor (moisture and humidity) emitted from the food
as it heats. The sensor adjusts the cooking times and
power level for various foods and quantities.
Using Sensor Settings:
1. After oven is plugged in, wait 2 minutes before using
Sensor Cook.
2. Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and the
interior of the oven are dry. Wipe off any moisture
with a dry cloth or paper towel.
3. The oven works with foods at normal storage tem-
perature. For example, popcorn would be at room
temperature.
4. Any Sensor Cook selection can be programmed
with More or Less Time Adjustment. See page 26.
5. More or less food than the quantity listed in the
chart should be cooked following the guidelines in
any microwave cookbook.
6. DuringtherstpartofSensorCook,thefoodname
will appear on the display. Do not open the oven door
or touch STOP/CLEAR during this part of the cooking
cycle. The measurement of vapor will be interrupt-
ed. If this occurs, an error message will appear. To
continue cooking, touch the STOP/CLEAR pad and
cook manually.
When the sensor detects the vapor emitted from
the food, remainder of cooking time will appear.
Door may be opened when remaining cooking
time appears on the display. At this time, you may
stir or season food, as desired.
7. If the sensor does not detect vapor properly when
popping popcorn, the oven will turn off, and the
correct time of day will be displayed. If the sensor
does not detect vapor properly when cooking other
foods,
ERROR will be displayed, and the oven will
turn off.
8. Check food for temperature after cooking. If additional
time is needed, continue to cook manually.
9. Each food has a cooking hint. Touch CUSTOM
HELP pad when the HELP indicator is lighted in the
display.
Covering Foods:
Some foods work best when covered. Use the cover
recommended in the INSTANT SENSOR and SENSOR
COOK CENTER for these foods.
1. Casserole lid.
2. Plastic wrap: Use plastic wrap recommended for
microwave cooking. Cover dish loosely; allow
approximately 1/2 inch to remain uncovered to
allow steam to escape. Plastic wrap should not
touch food.
3. Wax paper: Cover dish completely; fold excess
wrap under dish to secure. If dish is wider than paper,
overlap two pieces at least one inch to cover.
Be careful when removing any covering to allow
steam to escape away from you.

Exterior
The outside surface is precoated steel and plastic.
Clean the outside with mild soap and water; rinse and
dry with a soft cloth. Do not use any type of household
or abrasive cleaner.
Door
Be careful with the edge of the oven door as it is glass
and could chip or break. Wipe the window on both sides
with a damp cloth to remove any spills or spatters. Metal
parts will be easier to maintain if wiped frequently with
a damp cloth. Avoid the use of spray and other harsh
cleaners as they may stain, streak or dull the door
surface.
Stainless Steel Trim (R-1214)
The exterior should be wiped often with a damp cloth
and polished with a soft dry cloth to maintain its beauty.
There are also a variety of products designed especially
for cleaning and shining the stainless exterior of the
oven. We recommend that the cleaner be applied to a
soft cloth and then carefully used on the stainless exte-
rior rather than sprayed directly onto it. Follow package
directions carefully.
Touch Control Panel
Wipe the panel with a cloth dampened slightly with
water only. Dry with a soft cloth. Do not scrub or use
any sort of chemical cleaners. Close door and touch
STOP/CLEAR.
Interior
Cleaning is easy because little heat is generated to the
interior surfaces; therefore, there is no baking and set-
ting of spills or spattering. To clean the interior surfaces,
CLEANING AND CARE
wipe with a soft cloth and warm water. DO NOT USE
ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANERS OR SCOURING
PADS. For heavier soil, use baking soda or a mild soap;
rinse thoroughly with hot water. The rack can be cleaned
with hot soapy water, rinsed and dried.
Odor Removal
Occasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the oven.
To remove, combine 1 cup water, grated peel and juice
of 1 lemon and several whole cloves in a 2-cup glass
measuring cup. Boil for several minutes using 100%
power. Allow to set in oven until cool. Wipe interior with
a soft cloth.
Turntable/Turntable Support
The turntable and turntable support can be removed
for easy cleaning. Wash them in mild, sudsy water; for
stubborn stains use a mild cleanser and non-abrasive
scouring sponge. They are also dishwasher-proof. Use
upper rack of dishwasher. The turntable motor shaft is
not sealed, so excess water or spills should be wiped
up immediately.
Waveguide Cover
The waveguide cover is located on the right side wall of
the oven cavity. It is made from mica so requires special
care. Keep the waveguide cover clean to assure good
oven performance. Carefully wipe with a damp cloth any
food spatters from the surface of the cover immediately
after they occur. Built-up splashes may overheat and
causesmokeorpossiblycatchre.DO NOT REMOVE
THE WAVEGUIDE COVER.
Disconnect the power cord before cleaning or leave the door open to inactivate the oven during cleaning.
