IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Use care when opening door. To avoid burns from
escaping heat and steam, let hot air or steam
escape before removing or replacing food.
Always open containers, popcorn makers, oven
cooking bags, etc., away from the face and hands
to avoid steam burns that can be caused by over
boiling.
To a v o i d b u r n s , a l w a y s t e s t f o o d
temperature and stir before serving and
pay special attention to the temperature
of food and drink given to babies,
children or the elderly.
The temperature of the container is not a true
indication of the temperature of the food or drink;
always check the food temperature.
Always stand back from the oven door when opening
it to avoid burns from escaping steam and heat.
Slice stuffed baked foods after heating to release
steam and avoid burns.
To avoid misuse by children
Do not lean or swing on the oven door.
Children should be taught all important safety
instructions: use of pot holders, careful removal
of food coverings; paying special attention to
packaging (e.g. self-heating materials) designed to
make food crisp, as they may be extra hot.
Other warnings
Never modify the oven in any way.
Do not move the oven while it is in operation.
This oven is for home food preparation only
and may only be used for cooking food. It is not
suitable for commercial or laboratory use.
To promote troublefree use of your oven
and avoid damage.
Never operate the oven when it is empty except
where recommended in the operation manual.
Doing so may damage the oven.
When using a browning dish or self-heating
material, always place a heat-resistant insulator
such as a porcelain plate under it to prevent
damage to the oven floor due to heat stress.
The preheating time specified in the dish’s
instructions must not be exceeded.
Do not use metal utensils, which reflect
microwaves and may cause electrical
arcing.
Do not place anything on the outer cabinet during
operation.
When the oven is in use, ventilate a room where
the oven is installed. e.g. open a window or switch
a kitchen ventilation.
Do not operate the oven if water tank cracks and
water leaks. Please consult your dealer or an
authorised SHARP service agent.
To prevent condensation which could corrode the
appliance, do not leave cooked food in the oven
for an extended period. Clean the oven at regular
intervals and remove any food deposits in the oven
or on the door.
Do not insert fingers or objects in the holes (the
steam outlets or air-vent openings) as this may
damage the oven and cause an electric shock or a
hazard.
Do not touch the electric plug with wet hands.
Plug into the electric wall socket securely. When
removing the plug from the socket always grip
the plug, never pull the power supply cord as
this may damage the power supply cord and the
connections inside the plug.
Never move the oven in operation. If the oven
needs to be moved, drain all water inside the oven
using DRAIN WATER function. After draining,
empty the drip tray.
Be careful not to spill water on the door or control
panel.
If the oven is dropped, on the floor, do not use
the oven. Unplug and contact your dealer or an
authorised SHARP Service Agent.
NOTE:
If you are unsure how to connect your oven, please
consult an authorised, qualified electrician.
Neither the manufacturer nor the dealer can accept
any liability for damage to the oven or personal
injury resulting from failure to observe the correct
electrical connection procedure.
Water vapour or drops may occasionally form
on the oven walls or around the door seals and
sealing surfaces. This is a normal occurrence and
is not an indication of microwave leakage or a
malfunction.
