INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW
ABOUT YOUR OVEN
When using the oven at power levels below 100%,
you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off.
Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking.
Room humidity and the moisture in food will
influence the amount of moisture that condenses in
the oven. Generally, covered foods will not cause as
much condensation as uncovered ones. Vents on the
oven back must not be blocked.
The oven is for food preparation only. It should not
be used to dry clothes or newspapers.
Yo ur oven is rated 1100 watts by using the IEC Test
Procedure. In using recipes or package directions,
check food a minute or two before the minimum time
and add time accordingly.
This Operation Manual is valuable: read it carefully
and always save it for reference.
A good microwave cookbook is a valuable asset.
Check it for microwave cooking principles,
techniques, hints and recipes. See pages 37 and 38
for ordering the Ultimate Accessory, the SHARP
CAROUSEL MICROWAVE COOKBOOK.
NEVER use the oven without the turntable and
support nor turn the turntable over so that a large dish
could be placed in the oven. The turntable will turn
both clockwise and counterclockwise. See page 30
for complete instructions.
ALWAYS have food in the oven when it is on to
absorb the microwave energy.
