on sealing surfaces.

4-14.3 Important Information
4-14.3.1 About Your Oven
This Operator’s Manual offers valuable information: read it carefully and always save it for reference.
A good microwave cookbook is a valuable asset. Check it for microwave cooking principles, techniques, hints and recipes.
See
The Ultimate Accessory
section for ordering instructions for the Ultimate Accessory, the Sharp Carousel Microwave
Cookbook.
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. See
Manual Microwave Operation
for complete
instructions.
ALWAYS
have food in the oven when it is in use to absorb the microwave energy.
When using the oven at power levels below 100%, you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off.
The fan will automatically start when heat rises from range surface units or burners and when convection, high mix, low mix
or the broil settings are used.
Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking. Room humidity and the moisture in food will infl uence the amount of
moisture that condenses in the oven. Generally, covered foods will not cause as much condensation as uncovered ones.
Ventilation openings must not be blocked.
The oven is for food preparation only. It should not be used to dry clothes or newspapers.
The oven is rated 850 watts by using the IEC Test Procedure. When following recipes or package directions, check food a
minute or two before the minimum time and add time accordingly.
