WARNING: Never adjust, repair or modify the
oven yourself. It is hazardous for anyone other
than a SHARP trained engineer to carry out
servicing or repairs.
This is important as it may involve the removal
of covers that provide protec tion against
microwave energy.
• The door seal stops microwave leakage during oven
operation, but does not form an airtight seal. It is
normal to see drops of water, light or feel warm air
around the oven door. Food with a high moisture
content will release steam and cause condensation
inside the door which may drip from the oven.
•
Repairs and Modifications:
Do not attempt to
operate the oven if it is not working properly.
•
Outer Cabinet & Lamp Access:
Never remove the
outer cabinet. This is very dangerous due to high
voltage parts inside which must never be touched,
as this could be fatal.
Your oven is not fitted with a lamp access cover. If
the lamp fails, do not attempt to replace the lamp
yourself, call a SHARP approved service facility.
IMPORTANT:
If you cook food for more than the standard time
(see chart below) using the same cooking mode, the
oven's safety mechanisms automatically activate. The
microwave power level will be reduced or the grill
heating element will turn on and off .

If you think the oven is not working properly there
are some simple checks you can carry out yourself
before calling an engineer. This will help prevent
unnecessary service calls if the fault is something
simple.
Follow this simple check below:
Place half a cup of water on the turntable and close
the door. Programme the oven to cook for 1 minute
using 100% microwave power.
1.
Does the oven lamp come on when it is cooking?
2.
Does the turntable rotate?
3.
Does the cooling fan work? (Check by placing your
hand above the air vent openings.)
4.
After 1 minute does the audible signal sound?
5.
Is the water in the cup hot?
Take the cup of water out of the oven and close
the door. Programme the oven to cook for 3
minutes using the top grill.
6.
After 3 minutes, does the grill heating element
become red?
Programme the oven to cook for 3 minutes using
7.
After 3 minutes, is the oven cavity hot?
If you answer “NO” to any question fi rst check that
the oven is plugged in properly and the fuse has
not blown. If there is no fault with either, check
against the troubleshooting chart on the following
page.
NOTES:
• Safety powerdowns:
If you cook food for more than the standard time
(see chart opposite) using the same cooking mode,
the oven’s safety mechanisms automatically
activate. The microwave power level will be reduced
or the grill heating elements will turn on and off .
• After manual or automatic cooking using the Grill,
Combi or Convection modes, the cooling fan will
switch on to cool the oven cavity. When the cooling
fan works, the display may show “NOW COOLING”
. To clear it, press the
STOP/CLEAR
key and the
display will return to “. 0”. During these modes, the
cooling fan will carry on working after you have
pressed the
STOP/CLEAR
key. You may feel hot air
blowing out of the air-vent openings.
