The heating category (a letter A to E) developed by

MAFF (Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food) with microwave oven and food manufacturers indicates the ability of the oven to heat small quantities of food (up to 500g [ I lb 2oz]). It does not represent the general performance of the oven.

Food packs carry cooking instructions for heating categories A to E. Follow instructions for the letter corresponding to the oven's heating category. The higher the output power and heating category of the oven the less heating time is required as shown opposite.

HOW WORKS

Microwaves are energy waves, similar to those used for TV and radio signals.

Electrical energy is converted into microwave energy, which is directed into the oven cavity via a waveguide.

To prevent food and grease entering the wave guide it is protected by the waveguide cover.

Microwaves cannot pass through metal, because of this the oven cavity is made of metal and there is a fine metal mesh on the door. During cooking the microwaves bounce off the sides of the oven cavity at random.

Microwaves will pass through certain materials, such as glass and plastic, to heat the food. (See 'Suitable

Water, sugar and fat in food absorb microwaves which cause them to vibrate. This creates heat by friction, in the same way your hands get warm when you rub them together.

The outer areas of the food are heated by the microwave energy, then the heat moves to the centre by conduction, as it does in conventional cooking. It is important to turn, rearrange or stir food to ensure even heating.

Once cooking is complete, the oven automatically stops producing microwaves.

Standing time is necessary after cooking, as it enables the heat to disperse equally throughout the food.

• Place the turntable support in the centre of the oven floor so that it can freely rotate around the coupling.

Then place the turntable on to the turntable support so that it locates firmly into the coupling.

• To avoid turntable damage, ensure dishes and containers are lifted clear of the turntable rim when removing them from the oven.

• For use of the rack, refer to the grilling sections on page GB-21.

• The non stick coating crisp plate can be used in all cooking modes. It is ideal for foods like oven chips, pizza etc. or it can act as a splash guard, if you are grilling food directly on the rack to keep the oven clean.

Never touch the grill when it is hot.

NOTE: When you order accessories, please mention two items: part name and model name to your dealer or SHARP authorised service agent.

NOTES:

• The waveguide cover is fragile. Care should be taken when cleaning inside the oven to ensure that it is not damaged.

• After cooking fatty foods without a cover, always clean the cavity and especially the grill heating element thoroughly, these must be dry and free from grease. Built-up grease may overheat and begin to smoke or catch fire.

• Always operate the oven with the turntable and turntable support fitted correctly. This promotes thorough, even cooking. A badly fitted turntable may rattle, may not rotate properly and could cause damage to the oven.

• All food and containers of food are always placed on the turntable for cooking.

• The turntable rotates clockwise or anti-clockwise. The rotary direction may change each time you start the oven. This does not affect cooking performance.

CARE AND CLEANING

C AUTION: DO NOT USE COMMERCIAL OVEN

CLEANERS, STEAM CLEANERS, ABRASIVE, HARSH

CLEANERS, ANY THAT CONTAIN SODIUM HYDROX-

IDE OR SCOURING PADS ON ANY PART OF YOUR

MICROWAVE OVEN.

Before cleaning, make sure the oven cavity, door, oven cabinet and accessories are completely cool.

CLEAN THE OVEN AT REGULAR INTERVALS AND

REMOVE ANY FOOD DEPOSITS – Keep the oven clean, or the oven could lead to a deterioration of the surface. This could adversely aff ect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.

Oven exterior

The outside of your oven can be cleaned easily with mild soap and water. Make sure the soap is wiped off with a moist cloth, and dry the exterior with a soft towel.

Oven controls

Open the door before cleaning to de-activate the oven controls. Care should be taken when cleaning the oven control. Using a cloth dampened with water only, gently wipe the panel until it becomes clean.

Avoid using excessive amounts of water. Do not use any sort of chemical or abrasive cleaner.

Oven Interior

1. For cleaning, wipe away any splatters or spills with a soft damp cloth or sponge after each use while the oven is still warm. For heavier spills, use a mild soap and wipe several times with a damp cloth until all residues are removed. Built-up splashes may overheat and begin to smoke or catch fi re, and cause arcing. Do not remove the waveguide cover.

2. Make sure that the mild soap or water does not penetrate the small vents in the walls which may cause damage to the oven.

3. Do not use spray type cleaners on the oven interior.

4. H e a t u p y o u r o v e n r e g u l a r l y b y u s i n g t h e convection and grill. Remaining food or fat splashed can cause smoke or bad smell.

5. Food will release steam during cook ing and cause condensation inside the oven and door. It is important to wipe the oven dry. A build up of condensation will eventually lead to rust forming on the oven interior.

SPECIAL NOTE for WAVEGUIDE COVER: Keep the waveguide cover clean at all times. The waveguide cover is constructed from a fragile material and should be cleaned with care (follow the cleaning instructions above).

Excessive soaking may cause disintegration of the waveguide cover. The waveguide cover is a consumable part and without regular cleaning, will need to be replaced.

Accessories

The accessories like turntable, turntable support, rack and crisp plate should be washed in a mild washing up liquid solution and dried. They are dishwasher safe.

SPECIAL NOTE for TURNTABLE SUPPORT:

After cooking, always clean the turntable support, especially around the rollers. These must be free from food splashes and grease. Built-up splashes or grease may overheat and cause arcing, begin to smoke or catch fi re.

Door

To remove all traces of dirt, regularly clean both sides of the door, the door seals and adjacent parts with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the glass oven door since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.

NOTE: A steam cleaner should not be used.

Cleaning tip - For easier cleaning of your oven:

Place half a lemon in a bowl, add 300ml (1/2 pint) water and heat on 100% for 10 -12 minutes.

Wipe the oven clean using a soft, dry cloth.

GB-27

TROUBLESHOOTING

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 the convection on 250°C.

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.

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 .

TROUBLESHOOTING

TROUBLESHOOTING CHART

QUERY ANSWER

Draught circulates around the door.

Condensation forms in the oven, and may drip from the door.

Flashing or arcing from within the cavity when cooking.

When the oven is working, air circulates within the cavity.

The door does not form an airtight seal so air may escape from the door.

The oven cavity will normally be colder than the food being cooked, and so steam produced when cooking will condense on the colder surface. The amount of steam produced depends on the water content of the food being cooked. Some foods, such as potatoes have a high moisture content. Condensation trapped in the door glass should clear after a few hours.

Arcing will occur when a metallic object comes into close proximity to the oven cavity during cooking. This may possibly roughen the surface of the cavity, but would not otherwise damage the oven.

Arcing potatoes.

Ensure all "eyes" are removed from the potatoes and that they have been pierced, place directly onto the turntable or in a heat resistant fl an dish or similar.

Check the door is closed properly.

The display is lit but the control panel will not work when pressed.

Oven cooks too slowly.

Ensure correct power level has been selected.

Oven makes a noise.

The microwave energy pulses ON and OFF during cooking/defrosting.

Outer cabinet is hot.

The cabinet may become warm to the touch - keep children away.

TO REPLACE THE MAINS PLUG

The wires in the mains cable are colour coded as shown:

Green and yellow stripes = EARTH

As the colours in the mains lead of your oven may not correspond with the coloured marking identifying the terminals in your plug, connect the wires as described:

• The green and yellow wire to the plug terminal marked E or or coloured green or coloured green and yellow.

• The blue wire to the plug terminal marked N or coloured black or coloured blue.

• The brown wire to the plug terminal marked L or coloured red or coloured brown.

Make sure the terminal screws are tight and the cable is held securely by the cable grip where it enters the plug.

Like most appliances in your home, your oven must be connected to a single phase 230-240V, 50Hz alternating current supply.

If you do not make the proper electrical connections you might damage the oven or injure yourself. Neither

SHARP nor the supplier will be liable if this happens.
