2. To reduce the risk of an explosion or delayed eruptive boiling, care should be taken when handling the
container. Your oven is capable of heating food and beverages very quickly with microwave, therefore it is
very important that you select the appropriate cooking time and power level for the type and quantity of food
to be heated. If you are unsure of the cooking time and power level required, begin with low cooking times
and power levels until the food is sufficiently heated evenly throughout.
Additionally:
a. Do not place sealed containers in the oven. Babies bottles fitted with a screw cap or teat are considered
to be sealed containers.
b. Do not use excessive amount of time.
c. When boiling liquids in the oven, use a wide-mouthed container.
d. Do not heat for longer than recommended time. See REHEATING-FOOD CHART in the attached
cookbook.
e. Stand at least for 20 seconds at the end of cooking to avoid delayed eruptive boiling of liquids.
f. Stir the liquid before and during cooking. Use extreme care when handling the container or inserting a
spoon or other utensil into the container.
3. Never operate the oven whilst any object is caught or jammed between the door and the oven.
4. Handle with care when removing items from the oven so that the utensil, your clothes or accessories do not
touch the latches.
5. Never poke an object, particularly a metal object, through a grille or between the door and the oven while
the oven is operating.
6. Never tamper with or deactivate the latches.
7. Always use oven gloves to prevent burns when handling utensils that are in contact with hot food. Enough
heat from the food can transfer through utensils to cause skin burns.
8. If the oven lamp fails please cousult your dealer or a qualified service technician trained by SHARP.
9. Avoid steam burns by directing steam away from the face and hands. Slowly lift the furthest edge of a dish's
cover including microwave plastic wrap etc., and carefully open popcorn and oven cooking bags away from
the face.
10. Make sure that the power supply cord is undamaged, and that it does not run under the oven or over any
hot surfaces or sharp edges.
11. Do not place anything on the outer cabinet.
12. Do not store food or any other items inside the oven.
13. Make sure the utensil does not touch the interior walls during cooking.
14. Do not operate the oven without a load (i.e. an absorbing material such as food or water) in the oven cavity
except when conditioning or cleaning the heater elements as described in the operation manual.
