When using electrical appliances basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:

WARNING

 -

To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury to persons or exposure to
excessive microwave energy:

1.

Read all instructions before using the
appliance.

2. Read and follow the specific 

“PRECAU-

TIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPO-
SURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE
ENERGY”

 on inside front cover.

3. This appliance must be grounded. Connect

only to properly grounded outlet. See

“GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS”

 on

page 3.

4. Install or locate this appliance only in ac-

cordance with the provided installation
instructions.

5. Some products such as whole eggs and

sealed containers —for example, closed glass
jars — are able to explode and should not be
heated in this oven.

6. Use this appliance only for its intended use

as described in this manual. Do not use
corrosive chemicals or vapors in this appli-
ance. This type of oven is specifically
designed to heat, cook or dry food. It is not
designed for industrial or laboratory use.

7. As with any appliance, close supervision is

necessary when used by children.

8. Do not operate this appliance if it has a

damaged cord or plug, if it is not working
properly or if it has been damaged or dropped.

9. This appliance should be serviced only by

qualified service personnel. Contact nearest
Sharp Authorized Servicer for examination,
repair or adjustment.

10. Do not cover or block any openings on the

appliance.

11. Do not store or use this appliance outdoors.

Do not use this product near water—for
example, near a kitchen sink, in a wet base-
ment, near a swimming pool or similar loca-
tions.

12. Do not immerse cord or plug in water.

13. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
14. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or

counter.

15. See door surface cleaning instructions on

page 17.

16. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:

a. Do not overcook food. Carefully attend

appliance when paper, plastic or other
combustible materials are placed inside
the oven to facilitate cooking.

b. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or

plastic bags before placing bag in oven.

c. If materials inside the oven ignite,

keep oven door closed, turn oven off
and disconnect the power cord or
shut off power at the fuse or circuit
breaker panel.

d. Do not use the cavity for storage pur-

poses. Do not leave paper products,
cooking utensils or food in the cavity
when not in use.

17. Liquids, such as water, coffee or tea are able

to be overheated beyond the boiling point
without appearing to be boiling. Visible
bubbling or boiling when the container is
removed from the microwave oven is not
always present. THIS COULD RESULT IN
VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING
OVER WHEN A SPOON OR OTHER
UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
To reduce the risk of injury to persons:

a. Do not overheat the liquid.

b. Stir the liquid both before and halfway

through heating it.

c. Do not use straight-sided containers

with narrow necks. Use a wide-mouthed
container.

d. After heating, allow the container to

stand in the microwave oven at least
for 20 seconds before removing the
container.

e. Use extreme care when inserting a

spoon or other utensil into the container.

18. If the oven light fails, consult a SHARP

AUTHORIZED SERVICER.
