2.
Check that there are Installation Instructions, Wall Tem-
plate, Top Cabinet Template, Mounting Plate, Installation
Hardware Accessories, Charcoal Filter, Grease Filters and
Exhaust Damper Assembly. Read enclosures and save the
Installation Instructions.
3.
Remove the feature sticker, if there is one. Check the oven
for any damage, such as misaligned or bent oven door,
damaged oven seals and sealing surfaces, broken or loose
door and dents inside the cavity or on the front side of the
oven. If there is any damage, do not operate the microwave
oven and contact your dealer or a SHARP AUTHORIZED
SERVICER.
RADIO OR TV INTERFERENCE
Should there be any interference caused by the microwave
oven to your radio or TV, check that the microwave oven is
on a different electrical circuit, relocate the radio or TV as far
away from the microwave oven as feasible or check position
and signal of receiving antenna.
GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. The microwave oven is
equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding
plug. The electrical requirements are a 120 volt 60 Hz, AC only,
20 amp. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly
installed and grounded in
accordance with the National
Electrical Code and local
codes and ordinances. In the
event of an electrical short
circuit, grounding reduces
risk of electric shock by pro-
viding an escape wire for the
electric current.
Permanent and Correct Installation

– Improper use of the grounding plug can
result in a risk of electric shock.
DO NOT USE AN EXTEN-
SION CORD. If the power supply cord is too short, have a
qualified electrician or serviceperson install an outlet near
the appliance.
If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical
instructions, consult a qualified electrician or serviceperson.
ABOUT YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
ALWAYS have food in the microwave oven when it is on to
absorb the microwave energy.
The vent under the microwave oven must not be blocked. During
microwaving, steam may come from the left side lower vent
(when facing the product).
When using the microwave oven at power levels below 100%,
you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off. It is normal
for the exterior of the microwave oven to be warm to the touch
when cooking or reheating.
Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking and the
amount being vented is directly related to the moisture content
of the food and room humidity. A cooler room will produce
more condensation. Attention should be paid to the vented
area after each use of the product and wiped down if needed.
The microwave oven is for food preparation only. It should not
be used to dry clothes or newspapers.
When using recipes or package directions, check food a minute
or two before the minimum time and add time accordingly.
When opening or closing the microwave oven quickly, food in
the microwave oven may be spilled. To clean, please refer to
the CLEANING AND CARE section on page 22.
ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING
• Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas toward outside
of dish.
• Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time
indicated and add more as needed. Food severely overcooked
can smoke or ignite.
• While cooking, cover foods with paper towels, wax paper,
microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Check recipes or cookbooks
for other suggestions. Covers prevent spattering and help
foods to cook evenly. See ABOUT UTENSILS AND COV-
ERINGS section on page 9 for information about covering
materials safe to use in the microwave oven.
• Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice during
cooking, if possible.
• Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking
of such foods as chicken and hamburgers. Large items like
roasts must be turned over at least once.
• Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking
both from top to bottom and from right to left.
• Add standing time. Remove food from microwave oven and
stir, if possible. Cover for standing time which allows the
food to finish cooking without overcooking.
