Wipe the oven clean using a soft, dry cloth.
WARNING
Electric Shock Hazard Improper use of the grounding can result in electric shock. Do not plug into an outlet until appliance is properly installed and grounded. This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded. Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the
UTENSILS CAUTION Personal Injury Hazard It is hazardous for anyone other than a competent person to carry out any service or repair operation that involves the removal of a cover which gives protection against exposure to microwave energy. See the instructions on "Materials you can use in microwave oven or to be avoided in microwave oven." There may be certain non-metallic utensils that are not safe to use fo microwaving. If in doubt, you can test the utensil in question following the procedure below.
grounding nstructions are not completely understood or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord. 1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce
the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
Utensil Test: 1. Fill a microwave-safe container with 1 cup of cold
water (250ml) along with the utensil in question. 2. Cook on maximum power for 1 minute. 3. Carefully feel the utensil. If the empty utensil is
warm, do not use it for microwave cooking. 4. Do not exceed 1 minute cooking time.
2. If a long cord set or extension cord is used:
1) The marked electrical rating of the cord set or
extension cord should be at least as great as the
electrical rating of the appliance.
GB-6
INSTALLATION
1. Remove all packing materials from the inside of the oven cavity and remove any protective film found on the microwave oven cabinet surface. Check the oven carefully for any signs of damage.
2. Place the oven on a secure, level surface, strong enough to take the oven weight, plus the heaviest item likely to be cooked in the oven. Do not place the oven in a cabinet.
3. Select a level surface that provides enough open space for the intake and/or outlet vents. The rear surface of appliance shall be placed against a wall. · A minimum space of 20cm is required between the oven and any adjacent walls. · Leave a minimum space of 30cm above the oven. · Do not remove the feet from the bottom of the oven. · Blocking the intake and/or outlet openings can damage the oven. · Place the oven as far away from radios and TV as possible. Operation of the microwave oven may cause interference to your radio or TV reception.
30 cm 0 cm 20 cm

5. Securely connect the plug of the oven to a standard earthed (grounded) household electrical outlet.
WARNING: 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). Do not block or obstruct air vent openings. Do not place objects on top of the oven.
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 ed 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.

Round/oval dishes are preferable to square/oblong ones, as the food in the corners tends to overcook. A variety of cookware can be used as listed below.

Comments
Small pieces of aluminium foil can be used to shield food from overheating. Keep foil at least 2cm from the oven walls, as arcing may occur. Foil containers are not recommended unless specified by the manufacturer, e.g. Microfoil ®, follow instructions carefully.
Always follow the manufacturers instructions. Do not exceed heating times given. Be very careful as these dishes become very hot.
Porcelain, pottery, glazed earthenware and bone china are usually suitable, except for those with metallic decoration.
Care should be taken if using fine glassware as it can break or crack if heated suddenly.
It is not recommended to use metal cookware as it re.
Care must be taken as some containers warp, melt or discolour at high temperatures.
It should not touch the food and must be pierced to let the steam escape.
Must be pierced to let steam escape. Ensure bags are suitable for microwave use. Do not use plastic

Only use for warming or to absorb moisture. Care re.
Always supervise the oven when using these re.

The metal racks supplied have been specially designed for all cooking modes and will not damage the oven.
WARNING: When heating food in plastic or paper containers, monitor the oven due to the possibility of ignition.

TROUBLESHOOTING
If you think the oven is not working properly there are some simple checks you can carry out yourself before calling an engineer. This will help prevent unnecessary service calls if the fault is something simple. Follow this simple check below: Place half a cup of water on the turntable and close the door. Programme the oven to cook for 1 minute using 100% microwave power.
1. Does the oven lamp come on when it is cooking? 2. Does the turntable rotate? 3. Does the cooling fan work? (Check by placing your hand above
the air vent openings.) 4. After 1 minute does the audible signal sound? 5. Is the water in the cup hot?
Take the cup of water out of the oven and close the door. Programme the oven to cook for 3 minutes using the top grill. 6. After 3 minutes, does the grill heating element become red? Programme the oven to cook for 3 minutes using the convection on 240°C. 7. After 3 minutes, is the oven cavity hot? If you answer "NO" to any question first check that the oven is plugged in properly and the fuse has not blown. If there is no fault with either, check against the troubleshooting chart on the following page.
NOTES: · Safety powerdowns:
If you cook food for more than the standard time (see chart opposite) using the same cooking mode, the oven's safety mechanisms automatically activate. The microwave power level
. · After manual or automatic cooking using the Grill, Combi or
Convection modes, the cooling fan will switch on to cool the oven cavity. When the cooling fan works, the display may show "NOW COOLING". To clear it, press the STOP/CLEAR key and the display will return to ". 0". During these modes, the cooling fan will carry on working after you have pressed the STOP/CLEAR key. You may feel hot air blowing out of the air-vent openings.
WARNING: Never adjust, repair or modify the oven yourself. It is hazardous for anyone other than a SHARP trained engineer to carry out servicing or repairs. This is important as it may involve the removal of covers that provide protection against microwave energy.
· The door seal stops microwave leakage during oven operation,
but does not form an airtight seal. It is normal to see drops of
water, light or feel warm air around the oven door. Food with a
high moisture content will release steam and cause condensation
inside the door which may drip from the oven.
·
cations: Do not attempt to operate the oven
if it is not working properly.
· Outer Cabinet & Lamp Access: Never remove the outer cabinet.
This is very dangerous due to high voltage parts inside which
must never be touched, as this could be fatal.
Your oven is not fitted with a lamp access cover. If the lamp
fails, do not attempt to replace the lamp yourself, call a SHARP
approved service facility.
IMPORTANT: If you cook food for more than the standard time (see chart below) using the same cooking mode, the oven's safety mechanisms automatically activate. The microwave power level will be reduced

QUERY
ANSWER
Draught circulates around the door.
When the oven is working, air circulates within the cavity. The door does not form an airtight seal so air may escape from the door.
Condensation forms in the oven, and may drip from the door.
The oven cavity will normally be colder than the food being cooked, and so steam produced when cooking will condense on the colder surface. The amount of steam produced depends on the water content of the food being cooked. Some foods, such as potatoes have a high moisture content. Condensation trapped in the door glass should clear after a few hours.
Flashing or arcing from within the Arcing will occur when a metallic object comes into close proximity to the oven cavity during cooking.
