Use pot holders or oven gloves when removing food
from the oven to prevent burns.
Always open containers, popcorn makers, oven
cooking bags, etc., away from the face and hands to
avoid steam burns and eruption of boiling.
To avoid burns, always test food temperature
and stir before serving and pay special
attention to the temperature of food and
drink given to babies, children or the elderly.
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.
Keep children away from the door to prevent them
burning themselves.
To avoid misuse by children
WARNING: Only allow children to use the oven
without supervision when adequate instructions
have been given so that the child is able to use
the oven in a safe way and understands the
hazards of improper use.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of the
appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the appliance.
Do not lean or swing on the oven door. Do not play
with the oven or use it as a toy.
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 trouble-free use of your oven
and avoid damage.
Never operate the oven when it is empty.
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 turntable and
roller stay due to heat stress. The preheating time
specified in the dishes instructions must not be exceeded.
Do not use metal utensils, which reflect microwaves and
may cause electrical arcing. Do not put cans in the oven.
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.
To avoid the possibility of explosion and
sudden boiling:
WARNING: Liquids and other foods must
not be heated in sealed containers since
they are liable to explode.
Microwave heating of beverages can result in
delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care must
be taken when handling the container.
Never use sealed containers. Remove seals and lids
before use. Sealed containers can explode due to a build
up of pressure even after the oven has been turned off.
Take care when microwaving liquids. Use a wide-
mouthed container to allow bubbles to escape.
Never heat liquids in narrow necked
containers such as baby bottles, as this
may result in the contents erupting from the
container when heated and cause burns.
To prevent sudden eruption of boiling liquid and
possible scalding:
1.
Do not use excessive amount of time (See page GB-10).
2.
Stir liquid prior to heating/reheating.
3.
It is advisable to insert a glass rod or similar utensil
(not metal) into the liquid whilst reheating.
4.
Let liquid stand for at least 20 seconds in the oven at the
end of cooking time to prevent delayed eruptive boiling.
Do not cook eggs in their shells, and whole hard
boiled eggs should not be heated in microwave
ovens since they may explode even after
microwave cooking has ended. To cook or reheat
eggs which have not been scrambled or mixed,
pierce the yolks and the whites, or the eggs may
explode. Shell and slice hard boiled eggs before
reheating them in the microwave oven.
Pierce the skin of such foods as potatoes, sausages
and fruit before cooking, or they may explode.
To avoid the possibility of burns
WARNING: The contents of feeding bottles
and baby food jars must be stirred or shaken
and the temperature checked before
consumption, in order to avoid burns.
