HEATING CATEGORY
The heating category (a letter A to E) developed
by MAFF (Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries
and Food) with microwave oven and food
manufacturers indicates the ability of the oven
to heat small quantities of food (up to 500g
[1lb 2oz]). It does not represent the general
performance of the oven.
Food packs carry cooking instructions for heating
categories A to E. Follow instructions for the letter
corresponding to the oven’s heating category.
The higher the output power and heating
category of the oven the less heating time is
required as shown opposite.
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 32).
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.

MICROWAVE COOKING ADVICE
Microwaves cook food faster than conventional cooking. It is therefore essential that certain techniques
are followed to ensure good results.
Many of the following techniques are similar to those used in conventional cooking.
COOKING ADVICE NOTES:
• Always attend the oven when in use.
• Ensure that the utensils are suitable for use in a microwave oven. (See ‘Suitable
Cookware’ on page 32.)
• Refer to the charts in the cookbook section for recommended cooking times and power levels.
• Do not place hot foods/utensils on a cold turntable or cold foods/utensils on a hot turntable.
WARNING:
Follow instructions in the SHARP operation manual at all times.
If you exceed recommended cooking times and use power levels that are too high, food
may overheat, burn and, in extreme circumstances, catch fi re and damage the oven.
WARNING:
Liquids and foods must not be heated in sealed containers or jars/containers with lids on, as
pressure will build up inside and may cause the jar/container to explode.
• Only use microwave popcorn within the recommended packaging (follow the manufacturers
instructions). Never use oil unless specified by the manufacturer and never cook for longer than
instructed.
Cooking Techniques
Arrange
Cover
Pierce
Stir, turn and
rearrange
Stand
Place the thickest parts of food towards the outside
of the dish, e.g. Chicken drumsticks.
Foods that are placed towards the outside of the dish will
receive more energy, so cook quicker, than those in the
centre.
Certain foods benefit from being covered during microwave cooking,
follow recommendations where given.
Use vented microwave cling film or a suitable lid.
Foods with a shell, skin or membrane must be pierced
in several places before cooking or reheating as
steam will build up and may cause food to explode,
e.g. Potatoes, Fish, Chicken, Sausages.
NOTE: Eggs in their shells and hard / soft boiled eggs should
not be heated in the microwave oven as they may
explode, even after cooking has ended.
For even cooking it is essential to stir, turn and rearrange food during cooking.
Always stir and rearrange from the outside towards the centre.
Standing time is necessary after cooking so it enables the heat to disperse
equally throughout the food.

MICROWAVE COOKING ADVICE
Check the temperature of food and drink and stir before serving. Take
special care when serving to babies, children or the elderly. The contents
of feeding bottles and baby food jars are to be stirred or shaken and the
temperature is to be checked before consumption to avoid burns.
Food Characteristics
Composition
Density
Quantity
Size
Shape
Temperature of
food
Foods high in fat or sugar (e.g. Christmas pudding, mince pies) require
less heating time. Care should be taken as overheating can lead to fire.
Bones in food conduct heat, making the food cook more quickly. Care must
be taken so that the food is cooked evenly.
Food density will affect the amount of cooking time needed.
Light porous foods, such as cakes or bread, cook more quickly than heavy,
dense foods, such as roasts and casseroles.
The number of microwaves in your oven remains the same regardless of
how much food is being cooked. The cooking time must be increased as the
amount of food placed in the oven increases, e.g. four potatoes will take
longer to cook than two.
Small foods and small pieces cook faster than large ones, as microwaves
can penetrate from all sides to the centre. For even cooking make all the
pieces the same size.
Foods which are irregular in shape, such as chicken breasts or drumsticks,
take longer to cook in the thicker parts. For even cooking, place the
thickest parts to the outside of the dish where they will receive more energy.
Round shapes cook more evenly than square shapes when microwave
cooking.
The initial temperature of food affects the amount of cooking time
needed. Chilled foods will take longer to cook than food at room
temperature, e.g. a cake made with chilled ingredients, will take
longer to cook than cake made with ingredients at room temperature.
The temperature of the container is not a true indication of the temperature of
the food or drink. Cut into foods with fillings, for example jam doughnuts, to
release heat or steam.
Face & Hands: Always use oven gloves to remove food or cookware
from the oven. Stand back when opening the oven door to allow heat or
steam to disperse. When removing covers (such as cling fi lm), opening
roasting bags or popcorn packaging, direct steam away from face and
hands.

SUITABLE COOKWARE
To cook/defrost food in a microwave oven, the microwave energy must be able to pass through the
container to penetrate the food. Therefore it is important to choose suitable cookware.
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.

Small pieces of aluminium foil can be used to
shield food from overheating. Keep foil at least
2 cm 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
when using microwave power as it will arc,
which can lead to fire.
Care must be taken as some containers warp,
melt or discolour at high temperatures.
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 or convection
use. Do not use plastic or metal ties, as they
may melt or catch fire due to the metal arcing.
Only use for warming or to absorb moisture.
Care must be taken as overheating may cause
fire.
Always attend the oven when using these
materials as overheating may cause fire.
May contain extracts of metal which will cause
‘arcing’ and may lead to fire.
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.

REHEATING ADVICE
Follow the advice and guidelines below to ensure food is thoroughly reheated before serving:
Plated meals
Sliced meat
Poultry
portions
Casseroles
Remove poultry or meat portions, reheat
these separately, see below.
Place smaller items of food to the centre of the plate,
larger and thicker foods to the edge. Cover with vented
microwave cling film and reheat on 50%, stir/rearrange
halfway through reheating.
NOTE: Ensure the food is thoroughly reheated before
serving.
Cover with vented microwave cling film and reheat on
50%. Rearrange at least once to ensure even reheating.
NOTE: Ensure the meat is thoroughly reheated before
serving.
Place thickest parts of the portions to the outside of
the dish, cover with vented microwave cling film and
reheat on 70%.
Turn over halfway through reheating.
NOTE: Ensure the poultry is thoroughly reheated
before serving.
Cover with vented microwave cling film or a suitable lid
and reheat on 50%.
Stir frequently to ensure even reheating.
NOTE: Ensure the food is thoroughly reheated before
serving.
To achieve the best results when reheating, select a suitable microwave power level appropriate to the
type of food.
NOTES:
• Remove food from foil or metal containers before reheating.
• Reheating times will be affected by the shape, depth, quantity and temperature of food together
with the size, shape and material of the container.
Never heat liquids in narrow-necked containers, as this could result in the
contents erupting from the container and may cause burns.
The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars are to be stirred or
shaken and the temperature is to be checked before consumption to avoid
burns.
• To avoid overheating and fire, special care must be taken when reheating foods with a high
sugar or fat content, e.g. mince pies or Christmas pudding.
• Never heat oil or fat for deep frying as this may lead to overheating and fire.
• Canned potatoes should not be heated in the microwave oven, follow the manufacturer’s
instructions on the can.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
NOTES:
• Never use spray cleaners, oven pads or abrasive scourers as these damage the surface of the oven.
• A steam cleaner should not be used.
• Take care not to let soapy water drip through the small holes in the oven walls and the cavity floor.
Excess water spillage through these holes will cause damage to the oven interior.
• Slight tarnishing of the oven cavity, around the area of the grills, is likely to occur. This is normal
and will not affect the ovens performance.
OVEN INTERIOR
• It is important to clean the interior of your
microwave oven after each use.
• To clean the oven interior, use a mild detergent
solution, such as washing-up liquid, with warm
water on a soft cloth.
• Heat up your oven regularly by using the grill,
refer to NOTE on page 10. Remaining food or
fat splashed can cause smoke or bad smell.
• Food and liquid splashes will build-up on the
oven walls and ceiling. If grease, fat and
food debris is allowed to build-up in the oven
interior it may overheat, smoke or even catch
fire when next using the oven.
• Keep the waveguide cover clean at all
times. The waveguide cover is constructed from
a fragile material and should be cleaned with
care (follow the cleaning instructions above).
NOTE: Excessive soaking may cause
disintegration of the waveguide cover.
The waveguide cover is a consumable part
and without regular cleaning, will need to be
replaced.
• Food will release steam during cooking and
cause condensation inside the oven and door.
It is important to wipe the oven dry. A build-up
of condensation will eventually lead to rust
forming on the oven interior.
• Do not allow grease or dirt to build-
up on the door seals or areas around
the door. This may prevent the door
from closing correctly and may cause
a leakage of microwaves (follow the
cleaning instructions opposite).
• Ensure the accessories are cleaned after
every use with a mild washing-up liquid
solution and dried. This will prevent
the build-up of grease and food debris.
The accessories are dishwasher safe.
• Clean the oven at regular intervals
and remove any food deposits.
Failure to maintain the oven in a
clean condition could lead to a
deterioration of the surface that
could adversely affect the life of the
appliance and possibly result in a
hazardous
situation.
OUTER CABINET
• Wipe the outside of the microwave oven with
a mild detergent solution, such as washing-up
liquid, with warm water on a soft cloth.
• The control panel must be wiped clean and
dried with the door open, therefore inactivating
the oven.
DOOR
• To remove all trace of dirt, regularly clean both
sides of the door, the door seals and adjacent
parts with a soft, damp cloth.
• Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp
metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass
since they can scratch the surface, which may
result in shattering of the glass.
WARNING:
Before cleaning, make sure the oven cavity, door, oven cabinet, accessories and
especially the grills are completely cool.

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 and bottom grills.
6. After 3 minutes, do both the grill heating
elements become red?
Programme the oven to cook for 3 minutes
using the convection on 250°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 will be reduced or the grill heating
elements will turn on and off.
• 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.
• 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.
• Repairs and Modifications: 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 the display is blank and has gone dark, even if
the power plug is properly connected, the oven
may be in Energy Save Mode. To cancel it, open
and then close the oven door, see page 7.
