IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To avoid the danger of fire
The microwave oven should not be left
unattended during operation. Power levels
that are too high or cooking times that are
too long may overheat foods resulting in a
fire.
This oven is not designed to be built in to a kitchen unit.
The electrical outlet must be readily accessible so that the
unit can be unplugged easily in an emergency.
The AC power supply must be 230V, 50Hz, with a
minimum 10A distribution line fuse, or a minimum
10A distribution circuit breaker.
It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only
this appliance be provided.
Do not place the oven in areas where heat is
generated. For example, close to a conventional oven.
Do not install the oven in an area of high humidity or
where moisture may collect.
Do not store or use the oven outdoors.
If food being heated begins to smoke, DO
NOT OPEN THE DOOR. Turn off and unplug
the oven and wait until the food has
stopped smoking. Opening the door while
food is smoking may cause a fire.
Use only microwave-safe containers and
utensils. See Page 9.
Do not leave the oven unattended when
using disposable plastic, paper or other
combustible food containers.
Clean the waveguide cover, the oven
cavity, the turntable and roller stay after
use. These must be dry and free from
grease. Built-up grease may overheat and
begin to smoke or catch fire.
Do not place flammable materials near the oven or
ventilation openings. Do not block the ventilation
openings.
Remove all metallic seals, wire twists, etc., from food
and food packages. Arcing on metallic surfaces may
cause a fire.
Do not use the microwave oven to heat oil for deep
frying. The temperature cannot be controlled and the
oil may catch fire.
To make popcorn, use only special microwave
popcorn makers.
Do not store food or any other items inside the oven.
Check the settings after you start the oven to ensure
the oven is operating as desired.
See the corresponding hints in this operation manual and
the cookery book section.
To avoid the possibility of injury
WARNING:
Do not operate the oven if it is damaged or
malfunctioning. Check the following before use:
a) The door; make sure the door closes properly and ensure
it is not misaligned or warped.
b) The hinges and safety door latches; check to make sure
they are not broken or loose.
c) The door seals and sealing surfaces; ensure that they have
not been damaged.
d) Inside the oven cavity or on the door; make sure there are
no dents.
e) The power supply cord and plug; ensure that they are not
damaged.
Never adjust , repair or modify the oven
yourself. It is hazardous for anyone other
than a competent person to carry out any
service or repair operation which involves
the removal of a cover which gives
protection against exposure to microwave
energy.
Do not operate the oven with the door open or alter
the door safety latches in any way.
Do not operate the oven if there is an object between
the door seals and sealing surfaces.
Do not allow grease or dirt to build up on
the door seals and adjacent parts. Follow
instructions for “Care and Cleaning”, Page 8.
Individuals with PACEMAKERS should check with their
doctor or the manufacturer of the pacemaker for
precautions regarding microwave ovens.
To avoid the possibility of electric shock
Under no circumstances should you remove the outer
cabinet.
Never spill or insert any objects into the door lock
openings or ventilation openings. In the event of a
spill, turn off and unplug the oven immediately, and
call an authorised SHARP service agent.
Do not immerse the power supply cord or plug in
water or any other liquid.
Do not let the power supply cord hang over the edge
of a table or work surface.
Keep the power supply cord away from heated
surfaces, including the rear of the oven.
Do not attempt to replace the oven lamp yourself or
allow anyone who is not an electrician authorised by
SHARP to do so. If the oven lamp fails, please consult your
dealer or an authorised SHARP service agent.
If the power supply cord of this appliance is
damaged, it must be replaced with a special cord.
The exchange must be made by an authorised SHARP
service agent.
