Pacemaker:
If you have a heart pacemaker,
consult your doctor or the pacemaker
manufacturer prior to oven use.
Oven Use:
• The oven is for domestic food use only.
• Never operate when empty, except as directed
in the ‘Heating without food’ section on page

open. It is important not to force or tamper
with the door safety latches.
• Never operate the oven with any object caught
in the door.
• Do not insert fingers or objects in the holes of
the door latches or air-vent openings as this may
damage the oven and cause an electric shock.

openings switch the oven off immediately,
unplug it and call a SHARP approved service
facility. (See page 36).
• Never move the oven while it is operating.
• The door, outer cabinet, oven cavity, turntable,
dishes, accessories and especially the grill will
become very hot during operation. Care
should be taken to avoid touching these areas.
To prevent burns, always use thick oven gloves.
